Travel time: 4 hours Distance: 190 km
Your guide will pick you up from Arusha to start your 6 Days Tanzania safari and transfer to the Ngorongoro Conservation area where you will arrive in time for lunch at the lodge and after lunch you will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife for an afternoon safari drive.
Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro National Park supports a vast variety of animals which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants not forgetting its dense population of predators which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard which sometimes requires a keen eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi a large but shallow alkaline lake in the south western corner which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos and other water birds can usually been seen here.
After breakfast you will head towards the Serengeti National Park rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. You head to the Seronera area one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park featuring the Seronera River, which attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. You enjoy a game drive en-route to the lodge.
You arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti national park.
You can be one of only a few fortunate people to glide in a Hot Air Balloon over the Serengeti Plains (available at supplementary cost by pre-arrangement) and float silently above the awakening bush while viewing wildlife and enjoying the amazing scenery of Tanzania.
After breakfast, enjoy a full day game drive in the Serengeti National Park. The wildebeest migration normally pass through the area in April & May, however the Seronera area is within reach of both the southern plains and the Western Corridor. The resident game in the area is phenomenal and species such as elephant, buffalo, gazelle, zebra, lion and a variety of other predators and herbivores can be seen here all year round.
You will get to see great herds of wildebeest and zebra during a short time frame around February normally lasting for about 3 weeks majority of them being wildebeest calves. Wildebeest calves can run minutes after they are born and within 3 days they are normally strong enough to keep up with the herd.
After breakfast you head towards the western reaches of the Serengeti National Park also known as the Western Corridor. You will do a game drive en-route from the Seronera area to the Western Corridor area.
You arrive in time for lunch at the lodge and after lunch you will enjoy an afternoon game drive in the area. The wildebeest migration can normally be found in the Western Corridor area in June depending on rainfall patterns.
Day 5 – Western Serengeti – Tarangire National Park
After breakfast enjoy a morning game drive in the Western Corridor. The key feature in the Western Corridor is the Grumeti and Mbalageti rivers running almost parallel to each other and each supporting a band of evergreen forest. The rivers sustain a permanent game population of zebra, wildebeest, all the predators and birdlife. It is also possible to find large pods of hippo’s and huge crocodiles in the Grumeti River. The wildebeests normally gather around waterholes midmorning in such densities that they look like ants swarming around a nest.
Later in the afternoon transfer to Tarangire National Park for an evening game drive and later dinner and overnight.
