SERENGETI TO KILIMANJARO
(6 Days)
Day 1
— Depart Arusha
for Lake Manyara National Park. This afternoon
safari in search of Lake Manyara’s

is due to the variety of landscape, the
ground water forest, acacia woodland,
areas of open grassland and the lake itself.
Day 2 —
Safari across the grassy plains
and acacia woodlands, via the Olduvai
Gorge, where the well-known Leakey family

the museum and the various sites of the
Gorge. Continue to the Serengeti and an
afternoon game drive.
Day 3 —
Game viewing and an opportunity
to view the vast herds of plains game,
more than two million wildebeest, zebra
and gazelle. The famous ‘migration’
occurs from mid-November to the end of
May and the plains are literally teeming
with animals.
Day 4 —
Early morning game viewing before
departing for the Ngorongoro Crater. If
time permits you will enter the Crater

Day 5 —
From the restaurant or your room
