With a wildebeest population of about 2 million and several other hoofed species. Elephants are relatively scarce and the few remaining black rhinoceros are restricted to the Moru Koppies area.

After an early breakfast, we drive south to the magnificent Ngorongoro crater via the historical Olduvai Gorge whilst game watching only interrupted by a picnic lunch enroute. Meals and overnight at a campsite.

 The Ngorongoro crater is the world’s biggest whole volcanic caldera and is arguably the most stunning arena. It is frequently described as one of the wonders of the world, not only because of its geological magnificence, but also because it serves as an extraordinary natural sanctuary for some of Africa’s largest populations of large mammals.

 AASKTC02: 9 Days Amboseli/ Manyara/ Serengeti/ Olduvai Gorge/ Ngorongoro/ Tarangire/ Arusha

Day 1 & 2: Amboseli.

Nairobi in the morning and drive via Namanga, on the Tanzania border, to the plains below Mt. Kilimanjaro where Amboseli is situated. After a stopover lunch we proceed into the scenic Amboseli National Park with game drive enroute to the campsite. The next day spent exploring this park.

 The waters from melted snow drain down the mountain under lava flows and surface on the Amboseli plains, creating a green belt of swampland amidst dusty plains. Here elephant, buffalo, lion, cheetah, wildebeest, hyena, jackal, warthogs, zebra and the Masai giraffe are likely to be seen.

Day 3 – Lake Manyara:

After breakfast, we drive into Tanzania via the Namanga border. We also pass through Arusha to Lake Manyara National park with lunch enroute. Regardless of the direction we approach Manyara from, the view is always fantastic. Meals and overnight at the campsite.

Lake Manyara is a shallow, alkaline lake that is part of the Rift Valley wall; the lake is at the base of this dramatic western escarpment giving it a beautiful and serene setting. In addition to this peaceful setting, Lake Manyara’s main attractions are its rich bird life, tree climbing lions and its hippos, which you can see at a closer range than many other places. Lake Manyara also hosts thousands of flamingos at certain times of the year and has diverse vegetation ranging from savannah, to marshes and acacia woodland, enabling a variety of wildlife habitats including butterflies.

Day 4 & 5 - Serengeti

An early morning game-drive in Lake Manyara National Park followed by breakfast and then drive to the great Serengeti National Park game viewing and with a picnic lunch enroute. Meals and overnight stay at the Seronera Campsite. The following day is spent leisurely viewing game.

Serengeti also offers rewarding bird viewing with ostrich and kori bustard being common, a variety of larks, finches, and raptors can be seen but the most distinctive small bird is the lilac breasted roller and during March to May the herds move in search of grazing to the southern section and in May to June, they move towards the western corridor of the park. The Park in the low season will still offer game viewing to match that of any park in Africa, and for some, the fact that there will be fewer tourists may be an added bonus.

Day 6 - Ngorongoro via Olduvai Gorge.

 After breakfast, we drive south to the magnificent Ngorongoro crater via the historical Olduvai Gorge whilst game watching with pic nic lunch enroute. Dinner and overnight at the Simba Lion Campsite.

 It is here where humanoid bones have been found dating back to over 1.75 million years including a direct ancestor of modern man at the Olduvai Gorge. There is an excellent site museum where you can explore the diggings with a guide and it is also a great place to view birds.

 Day 7 - Tarangire.

 Morning crater tour and after lunch we proceed to the less congested wildlife paradise the Tarangire National Park. Meals and overnight stay at the campsite.

The Park becomes most active during the dry season between July and November, when large herds of game attracted to the everlasting waters of the Tarangire River make this reserve every bit as appealing as the Serengeti and is also home to a variety of bird species.

Day 8- Arusha.

After breakfast we proceed on the early morning game drive with pic nic lunch enroute before continuing to Arusha for dinner and overnight (at an extra cost).
