Jewels of Tanzania

3 Days Mid-Range tour

If you only have 3 days but still want to visit the most famous parks of Tanzania (Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater) this is the perfect tour for you. You will only spend one night in the Serengeti, which we usually think is too little, but if your timeframe is short and you really want to visit this amazing park, then it is the right choice for you.
It seems like you're interested in planning a trip to Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, which is an excellent choice for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers! Serengeti is renowned for its vast savannahs, diverse ecosystems, and incredible wildlife, including the famous Great Migration. Here's a suggested itinerary for your day in Serengeti National Park;

Itinerary


Day 1: Serengeti National park.
After an early breakfast, you will depart from Arusha towards the most famous national park in the world, the Serengeti. The driving itself, although long, is spectacular. You will drive up the crater highlands, making a quick stop at the rim for an out of this world view of Ngorongoro Crater. This will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time.
As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in the local language, "endless plains". The park has 6,900 sq miles (18,000 sq km) and for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon defying your senses and perception of distances. It is the home of the great migration and 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras and all kinds of antelopes including the abundant impalas and Thomson's gazelles. As for big cats and large predators, it's the place of choice to look out for lions, cheetahs, leopards and hyenas.

Day 2: Serengeti to Ngorongoro crater
On this day we suggest a very early wake up in order to do an early morning game drive (when the animals are more active) and see one of the best sunrises you'll ever witness.
After the game drive, we will return to the camp for a rewarding brunch and then we'll proceed to Ngorongoro, the 8th Wonder of the Natural World. The crater spreads for 102 sq miles and has 2,000 ft high walls, making it virtually Noah's ark and inhabiting almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa. It's one of the very rare locations in the whole continent where you can witness the black rhino. The concentration of African wildlife is the greatest on the continent. The crater has a river, several swamps, a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingos, a forest and open plains. It's also famous for its elephants which are the largest in the world and have huge tusks. This is due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses.

Day 3: Ngorongoro crater
We will start the day very early and descend into the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife in one of the most stunning places on earth. After the game drive, there will be time for a picnic lunch near the beautiful Hippo Lake. After lunch, we will have time for a short game drive and then ascend the crater and exit Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Arusha. We expect to be back in Arusha around 5 pm although we are flexible in case there is a flight to catch or another situation.
