8-Day Spectacular Serengeti Migration(Private Camping)

After breakfast, we will be met at our accommodation by our safari guide. We then set out for Lake Manyara National Park. This relatively small but diverse park, 120km west of Arusha, is so named for a shallow salt lake that covers a large area of the park’s surface area. Flooding and drying with the seasons, this soda lake is home to thousands of flamingos with another 500 bird species represented in the park. On our exploration of the park, we will see monkey, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, elephant, and, with some luck, lion lounging in the trees. The park is known for its diverse landscapes – not only open grassy plains, but also primate-filled woodlands and baobab-dotted cliffs.

After an extensive game drive through the park, we head toward your campsite, carefully selected by us, where we can dine, rest and relax in pleasant surroundings.

After breakfast, we set out for the fertile highlands where wheat, coffee and corn are grown by the Iraqw people. Passing through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, we have the opportunity to see the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater before traveling onwards to the Serengeti National Park, which we will reach by midday. The Serengeti National Park, the largest park in Tanzania, is a land of diverse landscapes and habitats such as grassy plains, swamps, lakes, savannah, and mountains. Here, the great wildebeest and zebra migration makes its circuitous journey along with a range of other animals and, depending on the season, we may have the opportunity to witness thousands of animals on their search for food and water.

After our extensive game drive, we head for your Campsite where we can unwind and have our dinner before relaxing by a fire on the endless plain under an endless African sky.

This entire day is set aside for further game drives in the park. The Serengeti is the habitat for an abundance of wildlife, such as impala, buffalo, crocodile, and hippo, but is more well-known for its great migrating herds of zebra and wildebeest. The animals’ trek is determined by the rainfall and varies from year to year. In November and December, the animals move from the northern region dominated by woodlands and hills to the grassy plains of the south. During the longer rainy season from April to June, the herds return to the north. Apart from the migrating herds, we may have the chance to spot predators such as leopard, cheetah, and lion, ever and always lurking close by. With our full day on the plains accomplished, we return to our campsite for a well-deserved rest, encased in our comfortable sleeping bags, dreaming of wild cats!

After breakfast, we will have a game drive in Serengeti National Park to see the park's beauty. Then, after a picnic lunch, we have a game drive en route to Ngorongoro Crater for dinner and an overnight stay at a campsite inside the Ngorongoro Crater.

Breakfast will be ready at around 5:50am, and we will descend the crater at 6:00am. Today's game drive will take approximately 6 to 7 hours, with a picnic lunch at a site on the crater floor. Next, we venture onto the crater floor for an up-close view of the resident animals of this World Heritage Site. Finally, drive back to Jambo Lodge and Campsite in the afternoon for dinner and your overnight stay.

The Ngorongoro Crater provides excellent game viewing all year round. The wildlife here makes up a permanent population because grazing and water supplies are plentiful throughout the seasons.

We will meet you at your campsite at 7:30am and have a safari briefing before departing for Tarangire National Park. Your first safari experience will be the thrilling game drive through the vastness of Tarangire National Park. You will arrive in good time for lunch. In the afternoon, we will have a game drive through the park and later drive back to Arusha for our overnight stay at your Hotel in Arusha

After breakfast, we will take you to Kilimanjaro International Airport, or you can extend your trip with a beach holiday in Zanzibar. Today marks the last day of our safari.
