Your detailed safari itinerary
Arrival in Arusha
A Watatu representative will meet you at Kilimanjaro International Airport, and we will transfer you to your hotel, located halfway to Arusha city (approx. 45 min). Hotel check-in is from 2 PM. In the afternoon, you'll have free time to enjoy the accommodation, relax, and take advantage of its amenities, resting after your flight. Lodge on the outskirts of Arusha National Park.
Safari Arusha National Park and transfer to Arusha
Let's get started! Today we will visit the Arusha National Park, in a full day that combines safari by car and a safari on foot through the park, accompanied by a ranger. During the activity we will be able to observe zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, woodpeckers, numerous species of birds and the black and white colobus, an endemic monkey of the area. Lunch will be a picnic in the park. In the afternoon, we will make the transfer to the city of Arusha to rest in the accommodation.
En route to Mto Wa Mbu and a bike tour of the banana plantations
We will have a leisurely breakfast at the lodge and then drive to the village of Mto wa Mbu, where we will take part in the "Land of Farmers" activity. We'll start with a bike ride through the banana plantations and rural paths of the village. There, we'll have the opportunity to learn about the area's banana plantations and enjoy a local lunch. We'll taste traditional cuisine and understand the importance of this crop for the farmers and the local economy. In the afternoon, we'll continue our journey to our accommodation in the village of Karatu.
En route to the Serengeti and afternoon safari
Today we will head to the best national park in Africa: the Serengeti. We will drive with our 4x4 towards the southern entrance of the park, Nabi Gate. Just at this point we will take the opportunity to have lunch contemplating thousands of kilometers of infinite savannah. Once we finish, we will head towards the center of the Serengeti, where our lodge awaits us. Along the way, we will go through each area of the park in search of cats and all kinds of herbivores: nyus, zebras, impalas, giraffes...
Full day safari in the Serengeti
Today we will dedicate the whole day to the “Best Safari in the World”. During the day, we will discover the great variety of birds, reptiles and mammals that inhabit the park: nyus, zebras and different species of antelope. With the help of our guides, we will learn how to track the most famous cats on the planet: lions, cheetahs and leopards. An incredible day that we will divide into two outings: one from 6 to 12 in the morning and another from 4 to 6 in the afternoon, the times when the animals are most active. Between both departures, we will rest and dine at the lodge.

Ngorongoro Crater Safari
Early in the morning, we will start a safari en route to the south of the Serengeti. Along the way we will cross stunning landscapes and we will have more opportunities to observe the fauna in its natural habitat. At noon (12:00-13:00 h), we will descend to 600 meters deep inside the Ngorongoro Crater, a unique ecosystem, considered one of the best wildlife reserves in the world. Although it seems impossible, this is where you can see the big 5. We will leave the Conservation Area and spend the night in our lodge surrounded, in a spectacular environment
Breakfast and transfer to the airport
After several intense days, today we'll start the day more calmly, gradually making our way to the airport, as, believe it or not, the adventure is coming to an end. We will transfer to Kilimanjaro Airport.
Lake Natron is a place of incredible natural beauty, with waters of a vibrant red due to its high concentration of salt and microorganisms, which reflect the sky at sunset. It is a sanctuary for flamingos, who gather on its shores to nest and feed. In this remote area, away from tourism, you can get to know the Maasai culture in the nearby settlements and enjoy the surreal views of the active Ol Donyo Lengai volcano and the Rift Valley.
This ancient volcanic crater is home to a large concentration of wildlife, including lions, elephants, rhinos and giraffes, as well as a spectacular landscape of meadows, lakes and forests. Without a doubt, one of the essentials to visit while making a safari in Tanzania.
The Serengeti National Park is one of the largest and most important parks in Africa, with an area of approximately 30,000 km2. It has a wide variety of ecosystems, from endless plains to hills and scattered forests, which makes it a very diverse habitat to host a lot of wildlife. It is famous for being the scene of the great annual migration, where millions of nyus and zebras roam the Serengeti in search of fresh pastures and rains.
