Days 1-2 Depart from your county / Arrive
Arusha
You've circled half the planet, and
now it's finally real: Africa! There's
a sweet, balmy breeze in the night air.
Friendly, smiling faces welcome you with
"Jambo!" and "Karibu!" Through the swirl
of exotic sights and sounds, your African
Vacations guide brings you from the airport
to a peaceful lodge, and sleep.
Overnight: Mountain Village Lodge

Days 3-4 Tarangire National Park
Wake up to a new world. A breakfast
safari briefing orients you to
your fresh, new surroundings.
Begin by driving south to Tarangire,
where giant baobab trees and umbrella
acacias dot the rocky hills and
verdant valleys.
Wildlife is drawn to the Tarangire
River, a year-round source of
water for herds of elephant, buffalo,
giraffe, zebra and antelope of
all shapes and sizes. Predators
such as lion, leopard or hyena
lurk nearby.
Back at your Lodge, or "home"
in the bush, savor the seclusion
and rustic beauty of your first
nights deep in the heart of wild
Africa.

Day 5 Ngorongoro Farm House
Leave the Tarangire park boundaries
and make your way to the vibrant
village of Mto Wa Mbu. A brilliant
display of colors, sights, sounds
and smells welcomes you. 120
different ethnic groups live,
work and thrive here; this is
the real Tanzania. Continue
to Ngorongoro Farm House for
a small-scale view of farm life
on this working coffee estate.
Organic gardens, 100's of birds,
innumerable flowers, old-growth
trees and your private cottages
dot the estate grounds. Fine
meals this evening round out
a stimulating day.

| Days 6 - 9 Serengeti
National Park |
 |
|
Navigate the southern edge
of the crater's circumference,
descending into the Malanja
depression and coming out onto
the open plains. Stop at Olduvai
Gorge, and rediscover the remarkable
finds made by the Leakey family
over a lifetime of exacting
work. Further along, the plains
open up dramatically. You've
come to Tanzania to experience
wild Africa. Well, this is it.

 |

The variety, quantity and proximity
of wildlife here is unparalleled.
The unexpected lies around every
corner. Spend your days exploring
the Serengeti's 5,700 square
miles of savannah in search
of fascinating wildlife and
unspoiled landscapes. Spend
your nights immersed in that
landscape. You see it stretch
out before you as you sip a
cold drink on the verandah.
It glitters above you in the
star-filled night sky. It buzzes
and whirs outside your tent
walls as you drift peacefully
to sleep.
