7-DAY SAFARI

Day-to-Day Itinerary

Each day within the Heart of Africa Safari has been carefully curated to make the most of every hour on your trip!

One Hour Airport Transfer From Kilimanjaro International Airport to Arusha City

As soon as you land at Kilimanjaro International Airport, your Victorious Vacation professional safari guide will be there to take you to your accommodation in Arusha.

Arusha City, nestled between Kilimanjaro and Meru, is the jumping-off point for a safari into the African bush and the gateway to Tanzania's Northern Circuit of national parks. Head out to see the sights and sounds of Arusha's local culture.

Meals Included: Dinner

Following a filling breakfast, your tour guide picks you up and drives you to Lake Manyara. Despite being one of Tanzania's smaller parks, Lake Manyara National Park has one of the greatest biomass densities of large mammals in the world due to its diversified vegetation, which includes grassland, marsh, and evergreen forest. Expect to witness numerous elephant families, countless flamingos, and even lions that can scale trees.

Keep an eye out for the baboons in this park, which can form groups with up to 200 individuals.

After Lake Manyara game viewing, you will proceed for a cultural tour at Mto wa Mbu village. Get an inside look at the homes and exquisite crafts of Mto wa Mbu’s many tribes. Visitors will meet locals and learn about banana beer, Makonde wood carvings, and tribal painting techniques; the village provides a great introduction to everyday life in Africa.

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner,

Immerse yourself in the Serengeti

In the wee hours of the morning, we embarked on a long day of game viewing in the Serengeti. This enormous park is home to various animals, from small herbivores to giant carnivores such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs.

Enjoy dinner at the lodge where you are staying. Spend the entire day exploring the vast plains of Serengeti National Park while enjoying a great meal. Your guide will return you to your lodge within the national park after an exciting day in the wilderness, just in time for a delicious meal.

Gather 'round the fire and tell tales of your wildlife adventures throughout the day.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

You leave with your lunch for one more morning wildlife drive in the Serengeti after an early breakfast. Early dawn is frequently the greatest time to witness the excitement of the pursuit as predators are most active at this time.

Before we make the three-hour transfer to Ngorongoro Crater, take advantage of your final few moments in the Serengeti National Park.

Arrive at your lodging in Ngorongoro and get comfortable in your new environment, and then enjoy a delicious meal while gazing at the same breathtaking panorama.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

Cherish the beauty of the Serengeti before making the journey to Ngorongoro.

Descend to the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater

Enjoy the sunrise over the crater before setting off on a day tour to see the unique wildlife within the crater's safety zone.

The Big Five assembled here, and the crater walls make a beautiful backdrop. After a day of sightseeing, you will be taken to your Tarangire National Park lodging at the end of the day.

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

End your safari with a game drive in Tarangire National Park. Tarangire National Park is in the Manyara Region of Tanzania. The Tarangire River provides most of the park's fresh water, making wildlife sightings more likely as the animals congregate near the river.

Warm, sunny days are perfect for viewing Tanzania's diverse wildlife, such as a herd of 300 elephants, wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, elands, and buffalo.

After lunch, depending on your international flight time, you will be transferred to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your onward flight.

Meals Included: Breakfast and Lunch.
