Depart Arusha in the morning and drive to Lake Manyara National Park. Lake Manyara is renowned for its flamingos, pelicans, and cormorants, but it is also home to several hundred species of migratory birds, making it a birdwatcher’s paradise. Tree-climbing lions and breathtaking scenery will make your day unforgettable. With a little luck, you might spot elephants in the acacia forest. Lake Manyara National Park is renowned for its high concentration of birds, monkeys, and big cats. Lunch will be served at the picnic area. After lunch, you will continue your safari in the afternoon. Later you will exit the park and head to Karatu for overnight at Marera Valley Lodge.
After breakfast, depart for the Ndutu plains, located between the southern Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The Ndutu region is famous from December to March as the calving ground of the Great Migration, where wildebeest give birth and predators follow closely.
Spend the day on thrilling game drives, enjoying the open landscapes and rich wildlife sightings. Overnight at Sero Tented Camp, an authentic bush camp offering a real safari atmosphere.
After breakfast, you’ll descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a thrilling game drive in one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife destinations.

After exploring this natural wonder and enjoying a picnic lunch, you’ll begin the journey back to Arusha, where your unforgettable safari adventure comes to an end. You will be dropped off at a place of your choice either Arusha town, Kilimanjaro Airport or Arusha Airport.
