Day by Day
Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, you’ll depart from Arusha and drive to Tarangire National Park, known for its large elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. The park is especially vibrant during the calving season, as zebra and wildebeest give birth here. You’ll spend the day exploring the park, spotting newborn animals and other wildlife, including lions, giraffes, and various bird species. In the evening, you’ll stay at a lodge or camp near the park, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful surroundings.
- Overnight at Camp/Lodge near the Park



Day 2: Tarangire to Serengeti National Park
On day two, head towards Serengeti National Park, one of the best-known wildlife destinations in the world. During the calving season, the Serengeti’s southern plains come alive with thousands of wildebeest and zebras giving birth. This is also a great time for predator sightings, as lions and cheetahs are often seen hunting. The day will be spent game driving across the park, taking in the expansive landscapes and observing the dramatic wildlife action. Overnight, stay in a lodge or tented camp within the Serengeti.
- Overnight : lodge or tented camp within the Serengeti.



Day 3: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, you’ll depart for the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most unique wildlife locations on the planet. The calving season here is particularly significant, as the rich volcanic soil supports abundant grasslands and wildlife, including elephants, lions, and rhinos. The crater’s floor is home to large herds of wildebeest and zebras, and the sightings of young animals are frequent. In the evening, you’ll stay at a lodge with a view of the crater rim, soaking in the breathtaking scenery.
- Overnight at Lodge/Tented Camp



Day 4: Maasai and Hadzabe Tribe Visit, Return to Arusha
After breakfast, you will set out with a picnic lunch for a full-day game drive. Serengeti National Park is one of the world’s greatest game parks. Meaning “endless plains” in the Maasai language, it is Tanzania’s oldest game reserve and is world-famous for the role it plays in the annual Great Migration when an estimated two million herbivores – mostly wildebeest and zebra – migrate from the Serengeti to Kenya’s Maasai Mara Game Reserve.

The stunning scenery and diverse landscapes showcased nature's beauty, from lush rainforests to barren alpine deserts. Our tour agency, Sightseeing Safaris, was incredibly helpful. The guides they provided were patient and supportive throughout the journey, which made our experience even better. Accommodation in the huts was comfortable, and reaching Uhuru Peak was exhilarating—a true testament to our determination!Overall, the Marangu route provides an amazing blend of adventure, camaraderie, and breathtaking views. I highly recommend using Sight seeing safaris to accomplish this trek for anyone seeking to conquer Africa's highest peak!Showing our latest reviews
