Day 1: Arrive
in Tanzania -
Arusha
Coffee Lodge
Welcome to
Tanzania! Upon
your arrival
into Kilimanjaro
Airport and
after clearing
customs and
immigration, you
will be met by
your
Ecological
Wilderness
Adventures
representative
who will
transfer you to
the lodge
Day 2 – 4: Swala
Tented Camp - Tarangire
National Park
After breakfast
in Arusha, you
will be driven
to Tarangire
National Park,
the third
largest national
park in
Tanzania. There
will be many
opportunities
for game viewing
as we drive
through the
park. Stop for
lunch at
Tarangire Safari
Lodge, then
after lunch
continues to
South Western
end of the park
where the
beautiful tented
camp is located.
Tarangire
contains a range
of ecosystems
from grassland
and woodlands in
the north, to
scrub and
wetlands further
south. The
Tarangire river
cuts through the
park and empties
into Lake
Burunge in the
west. Tarangire
boasts one of
the largest and
most conspicuous
elephant
populations in
East Africa.
There are large
family groups
with many calves
being born each
year as the
population
continues to
recover from the
devastating
effects of
poaching in the
eighties. You
will see herds
of elephants and
experience close
contact with the
matriarchs, the
babies,
teenagers, and
bulls. Your
close contact
will help you in
understanding
these incredible
animals. Spend
several hours
surrounded by
the herds and
you cannot help
but feel their
wisdom.
Tarangire is
also known for
its abundant
baobab trees,
most of which
are over 400
years, old and
the beautiful
landscape
Overnight
Tarangire Swala
Tented Camp
Day 5: Lake
Manyara Tree
Lodge -
Lake
Manyara National
Park.
After breakfast,
we will drive to
Lake Manyara
National Park
for a game drive
and have a
picnic lunch.
While Manyara is
one of the
smallest parks,
it is one of the
most
interesting.
Much of the
northern part of
the park is fed
by underground
water from the
Ngorongoro
Highlands and as
a result is
covered in dense
forest
vegetation,
giving the
appearance of a
tropical jungle.
This forest is
ideal habitat
for elephant,
bushbuck, blue
monkey, and huge
troops of olive
baboon. Some
parts are dry
bush land
attracting
zebra, impala
and giraffe,
while the
lakeshore
provides another
habitat, perfect
for flamingos
and other shore
birds. Our game
drive will take
us slowly south
through the park
and later in the
afternoon
proceed to Tloma
Mountain Lodge.
We will have
dinner and stay
the night at the
lodge.
Overnight at
Lake Manyara
Tree Lodge
DAY 6: Ngorongoro
Crater Lodge - Ngorongoro
Crater
We explore more
of Manyara this
morning on our
way to
Ngorongoro. Our
drive takes us
up the Rift
Valley
escarpment,
where the views
back over Lake
Manyara and the
floor of the
Rift Valley are
amazing. We
continue through
rolling farmland
in the Mbulu
Highlands, where
we notice cool
highland air.
Further on, at
the Ngorongoro
Crater rim, we
marvel at the
beauty of this
World Heritage
site, before
continuing to
the luxurious
Ngorongoro
Crater Lodge
where we have
dinner and spend
the night.
Overnight at
Ngorongoro
Crater Lodge
DAY 7: Ngorongoro
Crater Lodge - Ngorongoro
Crater
In the early
morning, we can
often watch
banks of cloud
lift off the
Crater as the
sun penetrates
an already
magical setting.
We descend more
than 2,000 feet
on steep tracks
cut into the
crater wall to
reach the open
plains of the
Crater floor.
The Ngorongoro
Crater is
undoubtedly the
best place in
Tanzania to view
black rhino as
well as large
prides of lion
that include
magnificent
black-manned
males. It is
also home to
huge herds of
wildebeest and
zebra and many
other plains
game, such as
Thomson's
gazelle. An
alkaline lake in
the floor of the
Crater provides
a habitat for
colorful
flamingo and a
variety of other
water birds.
Massive bull
elephants feed
in the swamps,
some adorned
with enormous
tusks. In the
mid-afternoon we
ascend to the
lodge, relax on
our veranda and
marvel at the
view. We can
soak in a hot
bath, or walk
around the lodge
grounds.
Overnight at
Ngorongoro
Crater Lodge
