Detailed Itinerary for 4 Days Northern Tanzania Safari
Day 1: Transfer from Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Your safari will begin with a pickup from your accommodation in Arusha. Then you’ll go to Tarangire for a full-day game drive across the park, complete with a picnic lunch. Watch elephant herds of up to 300 dig for water in the dry riverbed, as wildebeests, zebras, buffaloes, impalas, gazelles, hartebeests, and elands congregate around the dwindling lagoons. This park draws migrating animals during the dry season and serves as an elephant refuge.
Enjoy dinner and an overnight stay at your accommodation.

On day 2 of your 4 days Northern Tanzania Safari, following an early breakfast at your lodge or camp, your driver-guide will transport you from the camp to Serengeti National Park. Explore the Serengeti’s huge, open grasslands and beautiful sky on a 4-hour game drive, followed by a sunset drive to see additional wildlife action. Your accommodation will provide dinner and overnight.

You’ll arrive late in the evening at your lodge or camp, which is positioned on the crater rim, for dinner and overnight stay.
Day 4: Crater Drive and Transfer Back to Arusha
After an early breakfast, we directly to the crater bottom for a 6-hour game drive. Keep an eye out for the Big Five: lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and perhaps a black rhino.
