Four-day Serengeti safari itinerary
Day 1 — Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Your guide picks you up in Arusha and drives to Tarangire for your first game drive. Look for elephant herds among the baobabs and scan the river valley for giraffes, zebras and other wildlife. After a picnic lunch and more time in the park, continue to your overnight accommodation near Karatu or Mto wa Mbu, as specified in your quote.
Day 2 — Into Central Serengeti
Travel through the Ngorongoro highlands toward Serengeti National Park. Once inside the park, spend the afternoon game driving toward the Seronera area. Your guide may check rocky kopjes, open grasslands and riverine woodland for lions, giraffes, antelope and, with luck, a leopard. End the day at your booked campsite or tented camp in the Central Serengeti area.
Day 3 — Morning game drive in Serengeti
Head out in the morning to see what is moving across the plains. Your guide can revisit a promising area from the previous afternoon or explore another part of Central Serengeti, depending on recent sightings and road conditions. After lunch or a picnic stop, continue toward your overnight accommodation in the Ngorongoro area. Ask about adding a sunrise balloon safari on this morning if space and timing allow.
Day 4 — Ngorongoro Crater and return to Arusha
Descend to the crater floor for a guided drive through grasslands and around wetland habitats. Look for zebras, wildebeest, buffalo and hippos, and keep an eye out for lions and the elusive black rhino. After the crater visit, drive back to Arusha. Share your onward flight details when you enquire so we can check whether the return timing fits your connection.
