WHERE FUN HAPPENINGS IS VISITING IN TANZANIA!
► ARUSHA TANZANIA (2 NIGHTS): Visiting Tanzania’s main city, we stay here for two nights at the posh 5-star Gran Melia Arusha Hotel. We will engage in a unique walking safari at Arusha National Park and enjoy a relaxing afternoon at our Arusha hotel’s amazing lagoon pool with pool bar.
► TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK (HALF DAY GAME DRIVE): Tarangire is one of Africa's little-known gems and a must visit, while visiting Tanzania. Tarangire is home to Tanzania's largest population of African elephants. With four of the Big Five residing here, it will be an exciting day of game viewing! As other sources of water dry up, the Tarangire River becomes the sole source of water in this region, attracting huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, and hartebeests as well as lions, leopards and other predators who prey upon them. Between June and November, Tarangire National Park plays host to a migration that will be an impressive site to see! Get Ready for an Exciting Day!
► LAKE MANYARA AREA (2 NIGHTS): We are staying at the luxurious 5-star Lake Manyara Kilimamoja Lodge, nestled on the rim of the Great African Rift Valley with stunning views of Lake Manyara, Mount Meru and on a clear day, you can see Mount Kilimanjaro. Lake Manyara was the setting for the earliest Tarzan films, verdant Lake Manyara National Park and Ernest Hemingway once described this area as "The loveliest Place, I have seen in Africa"…. Lake Manyara National Park is an unspoiled paradise of ground water forest fed by underground springs and teeming with wildlife such as elephants, hippos, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes, and some of the largest baboon troops in Africa. Apart from a spectacular setting, the park is famous for its unusual tree-climbing lions and the vast elephant herds it was established to protect.
► NGORONGORO CRATER CONSERVATION AREA (2 Nights at Serena Ngorongoro Crater Lodge with all rooms overlooking this Extraordinary Crater- FULL DAY GAME DRIVE): Tanzania's biggest tourist attraction isn't the sprawling plains of the Serengeti... it's the stunning Ngorongoro Conservation Area! The Ngorongoro Crater is game viewing gone crazy! Within the crater rim, a daily wildlife drama is played out as large herds of zebra and wildebeest graze nearby lions, leopards, elephants and black rhinos. Outside of the crater a similar drama continues in a more spread out manner with Masai herdsmen thrown into the mix.
► CENTRAL SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK (3 NIGHTS- 2 GAME DRIVES DAILY): Serengeti National Park, known as one of the Top 3 national parks in the World to view wildlife! Known for the largest lion population in the world, with 4,000+ lions. Central Serengeti boasts the best opportunity to view big cats, lions, cheetahs and the elusive leopard! We are spending 3 nights at the chic 5-star Melia Serengeti Lodge. Melia Serengeti Lodge is known for its luxurious amenities, famous infinity pool (viewing wildlife from the pool), majestic panoramic views overlooking Serengeti plains and impeccable service from their friendly staff. On these days, you have the choice of joining in both morning and afternoon game drives or if you choose to just join one, you can enjoy the lodge’s luxury amenities during your free time.
