Tanzania Safari Tour, Serengeti, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK: A Safari through the Serengeti is breathtaking and exciting; a once in a lifetime opportunity. The name Serengeti comes from the Maasai language, meaning ‘endless plains’.Serengeti National Park is most famous for its migration. On the vast plains of the Serengeti, visitors can take in an annual wildebeest migration that stands as one of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural spectacles. Nowhere on earth is there a sight rivalling the spectacle of 1.5 million hoofed animals on the march. Serengeti has the highest concentration of large mammals on this planet and is famous for its 2,500 lions, the highest concentration found anywhere!

TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK: Tarangire covers 2600 square miles and includes two large plains and a seasonal swamp in the south. This is a beautiful park filled with Baobabs and Acacias with a large variety of game such as zebras, elephants, giraffes, and waterbuck. All the animals can enjoy the water coming from the Tarangire River . The animals are best viewed during the dry season, including elephant herds, elands, orynx, lesser kudo, rhino, leopards, lions, and cheetah. The birdlife is varied and plentiful. The very rare roan antelope can also be seen in this park.

NGORONGORO CRATER: One of nature’s true wonders and a photographer’s paradise! Ngorongoro is the largest intact crater in the world, covering 265 square kilometers. From the rim to the crater floor is 600 meters. The Crater is home to an abundance of wild game including elephants, rhinos, cheetahs, lions, leopards, hyenas, serval cats, jackals, bush backs, elands, water bucks, wildebeest, many antelope, and a large variety of birds. This is a sight that you will always remember!

ITINERARY
DAY 0: ARRIVAL
DAY 1: TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK
Today after breakfast, move on to one of Tanzania’s less visited places, Tarangire National Park. Established in 1970, it takes its name from the Tarangire River, a permanent watercourse that cuts a swathe through the middle of the park, allowing fantastic views along the valley. On approaching the park, however, the most eye-catching aspect is the view of baobab trees rising from the plain. These trees are instantly recognizable by the leafless branches that protrude from their crown – almost as if they were the roots of a tree that was planted upside down. The scars on their trunks bear witness to the presence of large herds of elephant that Tarangire attracts. The largely forested areas and high grasses most of the year make game viewing harder than on the short grass plains of the Serengeti, but during the dry months large numbers of animals congregate along the banks of the river. As well as elephant it’s possible to see wildebeest, buffalo, zebra, Thompson’s gazelle, eland and hartebeest, as well as leopard. Stay overnight at Karatu Simba Lodge.
DAY 2: NGORONGORO CRATER
On the way to the Serengeti we'll stop at Ngorongoro Crater, a vast volcanic caldera that offers tremendous game-viewing opportunities. Today, embark on an unforgettable safari into the crater. Ngorongoro is one of the most picturesque settings for observing wildlife. With around 30,000 resident animals, the game viewing is excellent all year round and the photographic opportunities are unrivaled! Encounters with animals are frequent in this Garden of Eden, and there is a wide variety to see. Lake Magadi, the soda lake on the floor of the crater, is home to thousands of flamingos. This is also one of the best places to see the endangered black rhino. Eat your picnic lunch in the crater before heading to Karatu Area for dinner and overnight stay at Ngorongoro wildlife lodge.
DAY 3: ENROUTE SERENGETI
Make the journey to the Serengeti. Established in 1951, the Serengeti is renowned for the annual migration that takes place across the Savannah – thousands upon thousands of animals as far as the eye can see. Enjoy the afternoon game drives in the Serengeti. Dinner and overnight stay at Tanganyika wilderness tents lodge within the Serengeti.
DAY 4: SERENGETI
Enjoy a full day exploring the sweeping grassy plains, rocky outcrops, and sparsely wooded river valleys of this incomparable park where lion, cheetah, leopard, wildebeest, zebra, giraffe, gazelle and perhaps even wild dogs can be seen. Drive out in search of game in the early morning and return by mid or late afternoon. All meals and overnight stay at Tanganyika wilderness tents lodge.
DAY 5: SERENGETI AND BACK TO MOSHI
After some morning game drives and the brunch or optional Balloon Flight followed by a Champagne breakfast (*pre-book at extra cost), leave the Serengeti and retrace your route back to Moshi. Stay at the Stella Maris once more.
DAY 6: DEPARTURE
Rise, shine, and say your goodbyes. We will transfer you to the airport for your departure.

Testimonials
  • Liren

    I climbed Kilimanjaro via the Machame Route with Miyar Adventures in Jan. 2016. Sandeep did a lot of hand-holding before and during the trip in terms of providing information and answering questions. He also took care of all the logistics and made everything hassle free. I was concerned about joining a big group but was relieved to find some quiet time on my own during the hike. My favorite thing about the hike was the local guides, especially Aaron and Sunday. They're very kind and supportive.

    LOVED the Kili Climb! Very well organized, the food was amazing! FRESH fruits and veggies at every meal, and they even accommodated dietary restrictions!! GF, Vegan and dairy (just to name a few) in our group of 14! The morning ritual of GINGER TEA was my fav, for sure!!! Sandeep is a great team builder, the group or climbers were so amazing, helpful and cheery the entire time!!! I will climb with Miyar again! Wish you could experience this for yourself, it is a once in a lifetime experience!!!

    Climbing Kili was a mind opening experience thanks to Sandeep, our group, and local guides. It's not just about breathtaking scenery, which you will experience. It's about the people. Sandeep and the people he works with are genuine, knowledgeable, wonderful people. I can't wait for my next trip with them! Love you guys!

    I climbed Kilimanjaro with Sandeep, it was an amazing experience. The trip was really well arranged, and we did not need to do much planning-wise. Sandeep was super friendly and helped us train for the climb, with the visas, vaccinations. He even brought some extra "just in case" jackets for the climb - which I ended up borrowing :) The mountain guides were awesome, the food was exceptional. It was a great trip and I look forward to my next trip with Miyar

    Climbed Kilimanjaro with Miyar a few months ago. It was an awesome trip. Everything was very well organized, and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. In fact Sandeep went out of his way to make things go smoothly. He was available months in advance to provide/discuss trip details and answer any questions that we had. He was also very flexible about the trip plan. And finally, he was willi...ng to organize training hikes for us as well, although that didn't work out due to the conflicting schedules of the group members. He made sure that all the group members met and got to know each other beforehand, which I think was really helpful. The trip itself (climb, safari, the group I went with) was one of the most enjoyable and fulfilling experiences of my life.

    I joined Sandeep on a climb to the highest free-standing mountain in the world - Kilimanjaro in Africa not quite knowing what that meant or what was involved and gained more than what I could have ever imagined. It was a rather long climb and the last day was very tiresome for me. Sandeep continued to encourage me when I was tired and truly exhausted and felt like I could not move an inch. Thanks to that, I did end up summiting and got safely back down to basecamp. I truly appreciated how the climb was coordinated by Sandeep with the guides and porters and it was really pain free for the clients with great food and all conveniences one can expect on a mountain. The pre-planning and gear check sessions all helped me immensely and thought the price was by far the best I had observed for the services provided.

    After having been part of climbs with other leaders, I think Sandeep's climbs are very accommodative to a wide set of climbers with varied skill set and preferences. I highly recommend his climbs and would definitely join on future climbs to some of the most beautiful places in the world.

    Kilimanjaro was my first mountain excursion outside of the US. I was equally excited and nervous. Sandeep and Miyar Adventures set up the most phenomenal trip I could have imagined! The plan fell perfectly into place upon arrival: hotels were lovely, food was delicious and the mountain guides were marvelous. Sandeep left nothing out when coordinating all of this. He was also available for the months prior to the departure to meet and make sure we had the correct flight plans, gear and clothing, vaccinations, passports, visas and any thing else we might need. Lastly, Sandeep set up local hiking treks prior to our big trip to ensure that we are all physically ready for the trip and so that we may meet one another before the big climb. I know this is a long review, but I wish I could write even more! I felt so comfortable in the hands of Sandeep and Miyar Adventures the entire time! There is nothing that could have gone better and I will certainly be booking another trip with this company soon!
