6-Day Striking Tanzania Safari with Kilimanjaro Hike

After a short briefing in the morning, you will be taken to the Tarangire National Park. The park with its endless tree savannah including the impressive baobab trees and seasonal marshes, is also home to the largest elephant herds in northern Tanzania. In addition to elephants, you are also likely to spot giraffes, buffaloes, lions, zebras, gnus, and other types of antelopes and gazelles. Upon arrival at the park, your guide will open the roof of the vehicle and the extensive wildlife viewing will begin. Lunch will be taken at a picnic spot and in the afternoon you will get to see more of this amazing and beautiful park.

After breakfast, you will depart towards the Rift Valley, passing through Mto Wa Mbu and Karatu, in the cooler regions of the crater highlands. You will enter the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and stop for a short look into the crater from a viewing point. You will continue your journey around the crater. You will descend the other side, enjoying your free “African massage” on the bumpy road, passing Maasai villages on your way to the Serengeti National Park. At the Naabi Hill entrance gate, you can walk to a viewpoint with spectacular views across the plains of the Serengeti savannah. You will then continue towards the Seronera Area in the central part of the Serengeti. The park offers a multitude of wildlife including the Big Five – lions, elephants, buffalos, rhinos, and leopards.

Today, we will go to Lake Manyara National Park. This park is known for its breathtaking panoramic views, waterfalls, babbling brooks with clear water, and hot springs. We do a game drive in Manyara all day, and if you like to walk, you can also book a two-hour walking safari. On foot, you can enjoy giraffes, buffalo, and other animals from a reasonable distance. In the afternoon, we drive back to Arusha to the hotel we have already booked for you, where we arrive in time for dinner.

It’s impossible to climb this famous, highest Mount Kilimanjaro in a day, but your day trip to this majestic, iconic snow-capped mountain will give you a shot to scramble up the first leg of the well-known Marangu route. On your way through the thick rainforest, you will come across twittering and chattering bird life, Colobus.
Note: Kilimanjaro day hike starts at 6:30 am – 7:00 pm.

Your day trip begins with a hotel pickup in Arusha, then jump in for a relaxing drive to Marangu Gate for registration with the authorities before you begin your long-awaited hike. This route approaches the mountain from the southeast part.

You will only trek through the lower altitude, taking your picnic lunch en route to Mandara Hut. Once you are at Mandara Hut, you will rest for approximately 30 to 45 minutes before you begin your slow descent back to the Main Gate.

Your driver will be waiting for you to drive you back to the airport with relaxing music to take away the fatigue.
