7 Days, 6 Nights

Tanzania boasts the most impressive National Parks and game reserves in all of Africa.  You leave Arusha and travel through the Maasai Steppe filled with many picturesque African villages as well as maize, coffee and banana plantations.  Enjoy game viewing in Lake Manyara National Park - this charming park is tiny by comparison with most of the others on a safari itinerary but its special qualities and abundant wildlife make it a most worthwhile visit. 

Continue through the stunning hilly countryside of the highlands which is filled with wheat and coffee plantations, and on in to the Serengeti - one of the largest wildlife sanctuaries in the world.  The annual wildebeest migration through the Serengeti attracts visitors from around the world, who flock to the open plains to witness the largest mass movement of land mammals on the planet. 

Continue on to Ngorongoro Crater – the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera.  With more than 30,000 resident animals, it is an awe-inspiring wildlife experience. 

Your final night takes you to Tarangire National Park.  There is a fine variety of game to be seen here, and the year round availability of water also attracts a great number of bird species.
