Top Parks Mini Safari

Early wake-up time, breakfast, and travel to Lake Manyara. The entire territory of this park is cut through with groundwater streams that provide a favorable environment for plants and, in addition, for a multitude of birds (including pink flamingos) and African forest animals. Around lunchtime you will visit the Maji Moto hot springs and the driver will provide you with personal lunchboxes. After this stop, the safari will continue, and by evening you will be transferred back to the hotel in Arusha. And ready for departure Additional notes: This is your first day on safari, so we ask that you please pay special attention to the national park visitor rules and our company recommendations. During the safari, it is strictly prohibited to exit the vehicle, except in specially designated areas. Violations of this rule may be accompanied by large lines for the company, including the revocation of its license. Off-road driving is also prohibited, as such behavior may cause irreparable damage to the fragile balance of the natural ecosystem. During the safari, you are allowed to smoke, but be extremely careful about how you extinguish and dispose of cigarette butts, as they are a frequent cause of fires in the savanna. In addition, we sincerely request that you not put your feet on the safari car's seats, nor sit on the back of them, because this type of behavior quickly makes the cars unusable. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

It is essential to leave the hotel as early as possible on this day to observe the range of creatures that are only active in the morning; breakfast will be packed in lunchboxes specifically for this purpose. You'll leave at 6:30 a.m. for Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and you'll be inside the crater in about an hour. Ngorongoro is one of Tanzania's most famous and interesting national parks, with the biggest number of diverse animal species per square kilometer. There will be buffalo, elephants, lions, wildebeests, zebras, hippopotami, and feline species such as caracals and servals to witness. The most fortunate visitors may even encounter a rhinoceros, an endangered species.

After breakfast, you will be transferred to the Serengeti's central region to begin your safari (also called Seronera). Here, your driver will try to locate the animals that you are most interested in. You will visit the Serengeti Visitor Centre near lunchtime, where you will be given a lunchbox and given a wealth of information not only about the animal populations but also about the history of the National Park. In addition, hyraxes, the elephant's closest relatives, can be found in this area. The Serengeti Valley is home to thousands of animals, including elephants, buffalo, ostriches, giraffes, jackals, hyenas, lions, antelopes, leopards, and cheetahs—just keep your eyes peeled. In the evening you will be transferred to a hotel, where you will have dinner and be able to rest.

Wake up, have breakfast, and start your game drive through the northern part of the Serengeti, which is in a league of its own when it comes to its landscape and diversity of fauna. On this day you can see the animals that only live in the most remote areas of the park. By early afternoon you will finish the safari and return to the hotel in Arusha. Rest in the hotel and transfer to the airport. Note: Hotel check-out is at 11:00 AM. In case you need a late check-out because of an evening flight, you have the option to extend your hotel stay till 6:00 PM for an extra fee.
