04 Days Lodge Safari in Tanzania

This  04 Day unforgettable lodge safari will take you to the Serengeti  National Park, the heart of wild Africa, and a massive wilderness of 14500 square km, where every day brings a new landscape and a new adventure. The tour will take you to the Ngorongoro Crater, featuring one of the highest concentrations of game in Africa. Here you will witness an amazing spectacle of African wildlife – inside a self-contained world featuring an unbelievable concentration of animals.

Lastly, you will visit the Lake Manyara National Park, one of Tanzania’s most dramatically located wildlife areas, consisting of a shallow but huge soda lake, at the foot of the Great Rift Valley’s western escarpment. The size of this national park makes it perfect for a one-day game drive and is famous for its unique tree-climbing lions.

DAY 1: ARUSHA – LAKE MANYARA

Transit Time: 2½ hours

Distance: 130 km

You will be picked from the Arusha hotel and join the group at Lake Manyara national park. We arrive in time for lunch at the camp and after lunch, you will proceed into the Lake Manyara National Park for an afternoon game drive. This national park is one of Tanzania’s most dramatically located wildlife areas, consisting of a massive but shallow soda lake (covering two-thirds of the park), located at the foot of the Great Rift Valley’s western escarpment. The park’s varied habitat attracts a wide variety of animals, including one of Africa’s largest concentrations of elephants, Lake Manyara’s unique tree-climbing lions, as well as large flocks of flamingos attracted by the algae in the lake.

Dinner and overnight at the Lake Manyara Wildlife lodge

DAY 2: LAKE MANYARA – SERENGETI

Transit Time: 6 hours

Distance: 205 km

After breakfast, you will depart to the Serengeti National Park, via the beautiful high lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa – the Serengeti National Park – with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. We head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species.

You will arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti national park.

Dinner and overnight at the Seronera Wildlife Lodge

DAY 3: SERENGETI – NGORONGORO CRATER

Transit Time: 4 hours

Distance: 145 km

After breakfast, you will proceed for a final early morning game viewing and later you will depart to the Ngorongoro Conservation area. You will optionally have a  stopover at Olduvai Gorge, boasting a history dating back to the dawn of time. It was here, that the anthropologists Drs. Lois

and Mary Leakey discovered the skulls of ‘Nutcracker Man’ and ‘Handy Man’, both very significant links in the chain of human evolution. You will arrive at the Ngorongoro conservation area late evening.

Dinner and overnight at the Ngorongoro Wildlife lodge

DAY 4: NGORONGORO CRATER

Transit  Time: 4 hours

Distance: 190 km

After early breakfast, you will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife for a half day’s safari tour. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro National Park supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. You will enjoy picnic lunches and later depart bac
