Day 1: Arrival in Arusha

Your safari begins as you land at Kilimanjaro International Airport, where a friendly representative from Kiwoito Africa Safaris greets you. The short drive to Arusha Planet Lodge takes you through the vibrant streets and lush scenery surrounding the city. After check-in, the afternoon is yours to relax by the pool, enjoy the fresh garden air, or take a gentle walk around the lodge grounds.

Day 2: Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, you head toward Tarangire National Park, a gem known for its towering baobab trees and the largest elephant herds in northern Tanzania. The park’s riverside landscapes attract an impressive variety of wildlife, from graceful giraffes to prides of lions resting in the shade. Families often find Tarangire particularly engaging because of its open spaces, where children can easily spot animals at a comfortable pace. As the day draws to a close, you settle into Baghayo Garden Suites, surrounded by tranquil greenery and the warm smiles of the staff who make you feel at home.

Day 3: Lake Manyara National Park

Your journey continues with a short drive to Lake Manyara National Park, a beautiful stretch of forest and floodplains beneath the Rift Valley escarpment. This park is famous for its tree-climbing lions, flocks of pink flamingos, and playful baboons that roam in large troops. The variety of habitats means sightings can change from one moment to the next—one turn might reveal a herd of zebras, the next a hippo pool. The evening brings you back to Baghayo Garden Suites, where the peaceful surroundings offer a relaxing end to the day.

Days 4–6: Serengeti National Park

The road to the Serengeti is a journey in itself, with sweeping views and occasional wildlife sightings before you even reach the park gates. Once inside, the true magic of the Serengeti unfolds. For three days, you explore the park’s iconic plains, home to one of the richest concentrations of wildlife on Earth. Depending on the season, you may witness parts of the Great Migration, where massive herds of wildebeest and zebras move in search of fresh grazing. Lions, cheetahs, and leopards patrol the grasslands, while elephants roam between acacia trees. Each game drive offers something new, whether it’s a dramatic predator encounter or a quiet moment watching giraffes against the setting sun. Your stay at Sound of Silence provides the perfect balance of comfort and connection to the wild, with spacious tents that let you listen to the sounds of the savannah at night.

Accommodation: Sound of Silence

Meal: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 7: Ngorongoro Crater

Leaving the Serengeti, you travel toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and descend into the crater—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most extraordinary wildlife viewing destinations in the world. This vast caldera shelters over 25,000 animals, from large herds of buffalo to endangered black rhinos. The scenery is as breathtaking as the wildlife, with sweeping grasslands framed by steep crater walls. After a full day of exploration, you return to Arusha Planet Lodge for a restful evening before your final day.

Accommodation: Arusha Planet Lodge

Meal: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 8: Arusha Cultural and City Experiences – Farewell to Tanzania

Your last day offers a softer pace, giving you time to enjoy the cultural side of Arusha. Depending on your flight schedule, you might visit a local market, explore a cultural heritage center, or meet artisans crafting beautiful beadwork and carvings. It’s a chance to gather final memories and perhaps a souvenir or two. Later, you are transferred to the airport, carrying with you not just photographs but shared family moments that will be talked about for years to come.
