4 Days Serengeti and Ngorongoro Tanzania Luxury Fly in Safari

You will fly from Zanzibar Airport at 7:35 a.m. and arrive in Serengeti at 10:50 a.m. On arrival at Seronera Airstrip, you will meet your professional and well-experienced local English-speaking safari driver guide. After greetings, he will give you a short pre-safari briefing and then embark on a game drive in Serengeti National Park for a chance to see the great herds of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles or a pride of lions lounging in the shade. The Serengeti, one of the largest parks in Africa at 15,000 sq km, is home to some three million large mammals and is made up of a diversity of landscapes with the southern region being dominated by the lush grassy plains that draw about two million wildebeest, half a million zebras and some quarter million antelopes to make the hazardous journey in search of pasture when the autumn rains come. Lunch, dinner, and your overnight stay will be at Four Seasons Safari Lodge – Horizon Water Hole View Room.

The Great Migration (also referred to as “Serengeti Migration”) is arguably the greatest wildlife show on earth. It is the largest single movement of wildlife on earth in search of water, pasture, and breeding grounds. Other than the great migrating herds we seek, we may also see cheetah, lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, wildebeest, hartebeest, topi, eland, crocs, Thomson’s, and Grant’s gazelle, amongst many more. With over five hundred bird species identified, the park is a veritable ornithological paradise, ostrich abound, secretary bird, marabou stork, and the largest flighted bird on Earth, the kori bustard. You will seek out these creatures with the keen intuition and experience of our “Wild guide” and, with the day drawing to a close, you will wend your way to your lodge to unwind, dine, and take your ease by the fire under the endless East African sky. Your meals and overnight stay will be at Four Seasons Safari Lodge – Horizon Water Hole View Room.

After breakfast, you will drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You will have a hot lunch at Ngorongoro Lodge. After lunch, you’ll embark on an afternoon crater tour. You’ll descend 2000 feet (over 600 meters) to the floor of the crater (more precisely a caldera). This 304 square kilometer enclosed ecosphere was formed some two or three million years ago in the massive explosion of a volcano once higher than Kilimanjaro and offers the best game viewing opportunities in all of Tanzania. You’ll explore the forest areas inhabited by monkeys and elephants, the lake area, where you may see the flamingos, and the open savannah where the lions hunt for food. With some 25,000 large mammals within the caldera, you will have the opportunity to see, in addition to the Big Five animals such as wildebeest, gazelle, reedbuck, bushbuck, hartebeest, hippo, both Grant’s and Thompson’s gazelle, impalas, as well as over 500 bird species. Your dinner and overnight stay will be at Ngorongoro Lodge.

After breakfast, you will drive to Arusha. You will have lunch at Arusha Coffee Lodge. After lunch, you will be transferred to Arusha Airport, where you will bid farewell to your guide and the incredible wilderness that you have explored over the past 4 days. As you board your flight, you will carry with you memories that will last a lifetime and a deep appreciation for the beauty and diversity of Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes. End of our services.
