Itinerary Details

1 Arrive Arusha, Tanzania

Perched 4,600 feet above sea level, the city of Arusha exudes a laidback feel, its spirit enriched by Maasai heritage. Just beyond, lush volcanic hills and rolling valleys adorned with tea and coffee plantations stretch toward Mount Meru.

Fly to Tarangire National Park and drive to your camp, taking in the baobab-dotted plains along the way. Have lunch at your camp before setting out on your first game drive in the park, a setting with one of the country’s largest elephant populations.

Embark on thrilling day and night drives and off-road game viewing, adventures rarely offered elsewhere.

Nestled in the lush green highlands, Gibb's Farm — a working coffee plantation — invites you to pause for lunch en route to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Arriving at your secluded camp near the crater rim, marvel at the caldera, a breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa's Seven Natural Wonders.

Descend into the vast extinct volcano, its walls forming a natural enclosure for herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo and gazelle grazing on the plains. Meanwhile, waterbucks, bushbucks and elands find refuge in the forest; a healthy elephant population roams freely alongside black rhinos, lions and hippos; and flamingos populate the soda lake.

A&K's safari itineraries are carefully timed and strategically located to ensure the best opportunity to witness this extraordinary Great Migration. Your camp puts you right in the heart of the action, allowing you to immerse yourself in the wonders of this iconic ecosystem.

With an expert safari guide, explore the vast plains of the Serengeti in search of predators and other game for the next two days through deep forests, vibrant wetlands and grasslands.

Head out on your final morning and evening game drives through the Serengeti, keeping an eye out for lions and any other species you may have missed.
