Lake Manyara & Serengeti
The adventure begins in the lush forest of Lake Manyara National Park which supports numerous elephant and a population of treeclimbing lions. Then you head into the rolling plains of the world’s largest and most renowned wildlife sanctuary – the Serengeti. As one of Africa’s finest national parks there are great opportunities to spot a variety of game – giraffe, lion, cheetah, elephant and wildebeest to name but a few.
Ngorongoro Crater & Tarangire
You’ll visit Olduvai Gorge where fossilised bone fragments attest to the existence of early man, before pitching camp on the rim of the extinct volcanic crater of Ngorongoro. This dramatic setting and the sheer abundance of game provide the most fantastic photo opportunities! On return to Arusha you overnight at Tarangire National Park where the bizarre baobab trees provide a habitat for many migratory species.
Wildebeest Migration in the Serengeti
The famous spectacle of the wildebeest migration usually reaches the western corridor of the Serengeti in late May and June each year. Although the exact timing cannot be guaranteed, this is an excellent time to take our Serengeti Explorer. Book early if you wish to travel at this popular time.
Responsible Travel
We support the Arusha children’s trust, a charity which runs projects in rural communities in the more remote areas of The Rift Valley, seeking to improve the lives of the tribal groups that live there, without imposing Western values on them. The projects aim to help children in a number of areas including education, health services and environmental awareness. If you would like to offer your much needed help to the project, as well as monetary donations, the trust would be delighted to receive any picture books for young children, games, construction toys, puzzles or sports equipment that you are able to carry out with you.
