3-Day Short and Sweet North Tanzania Safari Experience

In the morning, after breakfast (around 7:30 AM), your safari guide will arrive at the hotel and inform the receptionist that he is waiting for you. After meeting up with your driver, you will travel to Tarangire National Park, and by 10:00 AM, you will already be on your first safari!

In this park, you will have the chance to see lots of wild Tanzanian animals (lions, buffalos, giraffes, zebras, etc.), but above all else, it is famous for its astonishing number of elephants, who typically tend to stay close to their drinking source, the Tarangire River.

On this day it is best to leave the hotel as early as possible so you can see the variety of animals that are only active during the morning hours; breakfast will be packed in lunchboxes specifically for this purpose. At 6:30 AM, you will set off for Ngorongoro Conservation Area, and after about an hour, you will already be inside the crater.

Ngorongoro is one of the most famous and interesting of Tanzania's national parks because here you can find the greatest number of different animal species per square kilometer. You will have the chance to see buffalos, elephants, lions, wildebeests, zebras, hippopotamuses, and feline species such as caracals and servals. The luckiest travelers might even see a rhinoceros, an animal whose numbers are rapidly declining.
