2 Days Tanzania Safari Experience

The first day of your safari will begin by 8AM in the morning with a pick up from your hotel at Arusha. (The first day can also start once you arrive at the airport. If you will land in the morning and you have a short time to stay in Arusha)

Once everyone is aboard, you will head towards Tarangire National Park. The 150 Km drive will be covered in about 3hrs.

The national park is extremely famous and special for its diverse landscape and nine different vegetation zones. As you begin your game drive, you will be welcomed by the ancient and gigantic Baobab trees, which make even animals like the giraffe look tiny.

The game drive goes on till about late afternoon and includes a small stop for a picnic lunch. The 3,000 Sq Kms park gets its name from the Tarangire river that flows through it. The river attracts a lot of diverse animals and you should be able to spot a lot of elephants, giraffe, lions, antelopes and zebra.

If it’s your lucky day, you might be able to spot the tree climbing python and the long necked Gerek. The Tarangire National Park has the highest concentration of elephants, which offers a unique chance for you to observe interactions between elephant families.

Don’t forget to capture this beautiful scenery with your camera ready at hand. Post the game drive, you will head to your lodge (Eileen’s Trees Inn) where a delicious dinner awaits you. Have good night’s sleep for tomorrow’s adventure.

Finishing up with a quick breakfast you will make an early descend into the crater floor. The Ngorongoro crater is the world’s largest inactive, intact and unfilled volcanic caldera. It has a massive floor of about 260 sq kms with a depth of over 2000 feet.

The 5-hour game drive in the crater floor, will show you a lot of animal action. Keeping the camera ready is definitely recommended. The African elephant, buffalo, Black rhino, Hippos, Hyenas, Cheetahs and Lions are found in plenty. Post the picnic lunch at the beautiful Hippo pool, you will begin a steep ascend to the top exit of the crater.

After picnic lunch, we will leave the crater back to Arusha. Back to the hotel (African Grand Hotel) or transfer to the airport. This will depend on your flight schedule.
