Itinerary (5 days)
-
Day 1
Arusha –Lake Manyara National Park
On the first day, all visitors will be picked up from Arusha and driven to Manyara. Lake Manyara National Park is not as popular as others, but it is definitely every bit as beautiful, with unique attractions, like tree-climbing lions, blue monkeys and the soda-ash lake. Nighttime will be spent at lodges in Manyara, as well.
Accommodation: Lodges/ Tented camps rated 4 (Very good) or higher at Tripadvisor.com.

Day 2
Lake Manyara National Park –Sererengeti National Park
The second day will feature the trip towards Serengeti, but not before enjoying a cultural excursion to see where coffee, corn and wheat is grown by local farmers. Towards the middle of the day, you will arrive at Serengeti National Park, which is the largest and most appreciated national park in Tanzania. It not only offers an impressive diversity of wildlife, but also exquisite scenery. The night will be spent here, at lodges that have been especially arranged.
Accommodation: Lodges/ Tented camps rated 4 (Very good) or higher at Tripadvisor.com.

Day 3
Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park requires at least a full day, so you can have ample time to admire everything and go on exciting game drives. You will be able to see big carnivores and other dangerous animals on the game drive and, if you’re lucky, you will have the rare opportunity to witness the migration of zebra and wildebeest. In addition, here you can also spot endangered species, such as the black rhinoceros. By far, one of the most interesting activities available at Serengeti is the Balloon Safari, but you can also engage in cultural activities, such as visiting the Maasai village or the Olduvai Museum. This will be your second night spent at Serengeti.
Accommodation: Lodges/ Tented camps rated 4 (Very good) or higher at Tripadvisor.com.
