Tour Schedule: 2-Day Safari to Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater

Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Your adventure begins bright and early with a convenient pickup from your hotel or location in Arusha. From there, you’ll set off in a comfortable 4x4 safari vehicle equipped with a pop-up roof for the best wildlife viewing experience. 

After a scenic 2-hour drive, you’ll arrive at Tarangire National Park. As soon as you enter the park, you’ll be greeted by the vast landscapes dotted with ancient baobab trees and the gentle winding of the Tarangire River. Your guide will take you on an extended game drive, offering you the chance to witness some of the park’s iconic wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for the massive elephant herds, which Tarangire is famous for, as well as giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, and more.

The park is also home to a variety of predators, so your group might be lucky enough to spot lions or leopards lurking in the grass. The river draws many animals, especially during the dry season, providing ample opportunities to see wildlife gathering for water.

Around midday, you’ll stop for a picnic lunch at a scenic spot within the park, surrounded by nature and the sounds of the wilderness. After lunch, you’ll continue your game drive, exploring more of the park’s diverse ecosystems.

In the late afternoon, you’ll leave Tarangire and drive to a nearby lodge or camp for dinner and an overnight stay. This will give you a chance to relax and enjoy the tranquility of the African bush while reflecting on the day’s incredible sightings.

Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater Safari and Return to Arusha

After an early breakfast, you and your group will head toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Upon reaching the entrance, you’ll begin your descent into the Ngorongoro Crater, a natural wonder that boasts one of the densest concentrations of wildlife in Africa. As you descend 600 meters to the crater floor, you’ll be met with breathtaking views of the lush crater interior and its vast wildlife.

Your day will be spent on a full-day game drive inside the crater, where you’ll have the chance to see the Big Five in one of the most unique settings in the world. The crater’s floor is home to an array of habitats, including open grasslands, swamps, and lakes. This diversity attracts a wide range of animals, including lions, black rhinos, elephants, and flamingos.

During the game drive, you’ll stop at a picnic site inside the crater to enjoy your lunch amidst stunning scenery. Afterward, you’ll continue exploring, keeping an eye out for some of the more elusive wildlife, like leopards or hyenas.

In the late afternoon, you’ll ascend from the crater and start your journey back to Arusha. You’ll be dropped off at your hotel in the early evening, marking the end of an incredible two-day safari adventure.
