Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) or Arusha Airport (ARK), a representative from Kili Roam Adventures will warmly welcome you and transfer you to your hotel in Arusha or Moshi.

If you arrive a day before your safari, you will have time to relax after your journey and prepare for the adventure ahead. In the evening or at a scheduled time, your safari guide will meet you for a pre-safari briefing. This is the perfect opportunity to go over your itinerary, discuss what to expect during the trip, and ensure you have all the necessary items for your safari.

We recommend planning to arrive at least one day prior to the start of your safari to allow for rest and any unforeseen travel delays.

After a morning safari briefing, begin your adventure with a drive to Tarangire National Park, renowned for its majestic baobab trees and vast savannah landscapes. The park hosts the largest concentration of elephants in northern Tanzania and is home to giraffes, lions, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeests, and numerous antelope species. Your game drive unfolds across varied habitats, offering superb photography opportunities and unforgettable wildlife encounters. Lunch will be served at a scenic picnic site before continuing your exploration in the afternoon. Later, travel to Lake Burunge Tented Lodge for relaxation and dinner under the African sky.

Highlights:

• Spot large herds of elephants and iconic baobab trees
• Excellent game viewing opportunities
• Scenic picnic lunch in the park
• Overnight stay near Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, travel to Lake Manyara National Park, one of Tanzania’s most diverse natural areas. Famous for its tree-climbing lions and over 400 bird species, the park’s landscapes range from groundwater forests to grassy plains and the alkaline lake itself, often dotted with pink flamingos. You’ll enjoy a full day of game drives before heading to Mto wa Mbu Village, a lively multicultural settlement on the park’s outskirts, for your overnight stay and a touch of local culture.

Today’s journey takes you through the fertile highlands where local farmers cultivate coffee, corn, and wheat, and onward through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Stop briefly to admire the panoramic views of the Ngorongoro Crater, then continue to Serengeti National Park, Tanzania’s most celebrated wildlife reserve. The Serengeti’s endless plains are punctuated by rocky kopjes and teeming with wildlife. Depending on the season, you may witness the Great Migration, where thousands of wildebeests and zebras move in search of greener pastures. Arrive in the Seronera Valley for dinner and overnight at your camp.

The Serengeti’s varied landscapes — from grasslands to woodlands and riverine areas — promise remarkable encounters throughout the day. After a picnic lunch in the bush, continue your exploration before returning to camp in the evening for dinner and storytelling around the campfire.

Highlights:
