7 Days Serengeti National Park Safari in Tanzania

Day 1: Arusha – Tarangire National Park

In the morning you will be collected from your hotel and after an approximate 2 hour drive you will arrive at the Tarangire National Park. Giant baobab trees, the Savannah and the seasonal marshes add to the wonder of this nature reserve. The Tarangire National Park is considered as one of the best places to view elephants up close, not only because there are thousands of animals but also because they are not disturbed by the presence of vehicles.

The park is also home to buffaloes, zebras and wildebeests which are always closely followed by a range of predators such as lions. Leopards are seen now and then but cheetahs are rarely spotted. From the open roof of the safari vehicle you will be able to absorb the landscape and watch the animals. In the late afternoon you will leave the park and drive to the Maramboi Tented Camp, where you can relax at the pool while overlooking the palm-dotted plains. Meal plan Lunch; Dinner.

Day 4: Serengeti National Park Safari
