Day 2: Tarangire National Park

The first check is Arusha Town for any closing minute purchases earlier than we head off on the Safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater. Tarangire is widely known for its big elephant population and baobab trees. It makes the middle of an annual migratory cycle that consists of as many as 3000 elephants, 25,000 wildebeest, and 30,000 zebras.

Day 3: Hadzabe Bushmen in Lake Eyasi
The Hadza, or Hadzabe, are a native ethnic group in north-central Tanzania, living around Lake Eyasi in the central Rift Valley and in the neighboring Serengeti Plateau. There are, as of 2015, between 1,200 and 1,300 Hadza people living around Lake Eyasi in northern Tanzania. They are notable for being the only population in East Africa that continues to rely broadly on hunting and gathering for their subsistence. Linguistically, they speak Hadzane, a click language that has phonetic similarities to other Khoisan click languages but is not mutually intelligible with any. Even though smoking marijuana is unlawful in Tanzania, Hadzabe smokes without any problem.

- ACCOMMODATION: Marera Valley Lodge
Day 4: Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, you will leave for Serengeti National Park, through the stunning excessive mendacity farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, you will descend into the coronary heart of untamed Africa, the Serengeti National Park with its infinite plains, rolling into the gap as far as the eye can see. Nowadays, you can reach the central place called the Seronera place, one of the richest natural world habitats within the park, providing the Seronera River, which presents a treasured water supply to this place. You will arrive in time for lunch and experience a day within the Serengeti countrywide park.
- MEALS:Breakfast | Lunch |Dinner
- ACCOMMODATION: Into Wild Africa
Day 5: Serengeti National Park
You will wake up very early in the morning to catch up with the sunrise in the beautiful Serengeti, ready to start a day chasing animals until late in the evening.
This will be a half-day game drive in Serengeti National Park and a drive for dinner and an overnight stay in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, ready for crater exploration the next day. Your dinner and overnight stay will be in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
- MEALS:Breakfast | Lunch |Dinner
- ACCOMMODATION: Ngorongoro Safari Lodge
Day 6: Ngorongoro Crater
After an early breakfast at the lodge, you will drive to Ngorongoro Crater, which is over six hundred meters deep. Ngorongoro Conservation Area helps a substantial variety of animals, which encompass herds of wildebeests, zebras, buffalos, elands, warthogs, hippos, and large African elephants. Another huge drawcard to this picturesque country-wide park is its dense population of predators, which encompasses lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which now and then calls for a skilled eye to observe. Furthermore, you can go to Lake Magadi, a massive but shallow alkaline lake at the southwestern corner; that’s one of the major capabilities of the crater. A massive quantity of flamingos, hippos, and different water birds can generally be seen here.

Day 7: Maasai Village Visit
We’ll pick you up at your hotel in Arusha at 7:00 am and depart for the Monduli Mountains, northwest of Arusha. It won’t take us long to get there, and soon you’ll start walking, following gentle gullies from the highlands down to the plains. Monduli Juu Cultural Tourism is about 50 km northwest of Arusha on the way to the Ngorongoro and Serengeti National Parks. The name Monduli goes back to a place in Monduli, Juu, where a very rich Maasai ancestor, called Monduli, lived during the German colonial period. Monduli Juu is a group of four villages: Emairete, Enguiki, Eluwai, and Mfereji.
