Tour Plan

On arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) or Arusha Airport (ARK) which caters for domestic flights, you will be met by African Big Cats Safaris representative who will drive you to your accommodation in Arusha. overnight will be at the Ilboru Safari Lodge a Calm lodge located in the suburbs of the city with a natural set up with beautiful garden awaiting for your safari the following day.

After early morning breakfast, we will drive to one of the albinism centers in Arusha. People with albinism have serious vision issues—often they are considered semi blind. This factor has repercussions in education as their teachers often do not realize that the students with albinism are unable to see the blackboard well enough to keep up with other students. Classmates and teachers alike treat them with scorn as it is assumed that they are inherently stupid. Few people with albinism complete secondary school and even fewer have the opportunity to attend college or university. After that, we will visit one of the local markets and interact with the locals in Arusha before driving back to our hotel in Arusha for overnight at Ilboru Safari Lodge.

After breakfast, we depart for Tarangire National Park. The Park is named after the Tarangire River which runs through it. This ‘river of warthogs’ is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the dry season. In places, the vegetation is quite dense, including elephant grass, acacia woodlands. The Park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffe, bushbuck and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. There are more breeding species of birds found in Tarangire National Park than anywhere else on the planet. Tarangire is the best place to see these gentle giants in their natural habitat – from the adorable calves all the way up to the intimidating bulls. You will spend two nights at Lake Burunge Tented Lodge with all meals included.

After an early morning tea or coffee, you will depart for a guided tour visiting the Bushmen tribe of the hadzabe who live on hunting and gathering wild fruits and roots. You may want to go on a hunting with the Bushmen. They subsist entirely off the bush and by bow hunting. Everything they use is made from local materials, including their bows which are strung with giraffe tendon and their arrows which are coated in lethal poison. Their language resembles that of Kalahari Bushmen tribe (who were featured in the 1980 film ‘The Gods Must Be Crazy’) with clicking noises used. After the hunt return to your lodge for a brunch. Afternoon visit the Datoga tribe who are blacksmiths who make spears and other iron materials. Dinner and overnight at Lake Eyasi Safari Lodge.

Serengeti National Park is undoubtedly the best-known wildlife sanctuary in the world, unequalled for its natural beauty and scientific value, it has the greatest concentration of plains game in Africa. It is the migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November, and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought, gorge or crocodile infested river can hold them back. Serengeti is truly home of the legendary Great Wildebeest Migration. The Serengeti National Park is where safari-goers come to truly experience an African safari. Late afternoon you arrive at your lodge for dinner and overnight at Serengeti Heritage Tented Camp.

After breakfast, drive out of the Serengeti and on to Ngorongoro Crater for game viewing drive.
