SkySafari Tanzania 2027

Day 1 — Kilimanjaro › Arusha

Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport you will be warmly welcomed and transferred to your hotel (approximately one hour). The Arusha Coffee Lodge is nestled within one of Tanzania’s largest working coffee plantations and is characterised by plantation-style home comfort. Depending on your arrival time, enjoy an optional Shanga cultural experience. The remainder of the day is yours to enjoy at your leisure.

Day 2 — Arusha › Tarangire National Park

Begin your day with a delightful breakfast before being transferred to Arusha Airport for your flight to Kuro Airstrip in Tarangire National Park, a dramatically beautiful and diverse ecosystem, boasting more than 3,000 elephants – one of the largest concentrations in East Africa. These herds of elephants are easily encountered, wet or dry. The swamps are tinged green year-round and are the focus for 550 bird varieties, the most breeding species in one habitat anywhere in the world. Upon arrival, you will enjoy a full-day game drive through the park, complete with a picnic lunch in the bush. Arrive at Elewana Tarangire Treetops in the late afternoon, just in time for sundowners. Then, cap off the day with a traditional Masai boma dinner at the camp.

Day 3 — Tarangire National Park

Start your day in Tarangire with an invigorating morning bush walk followed by a delightful breakfast in the wilderness. After breakfast, visit a local Maasai village before enjoying lunch back at the camp. This afternoon enjoy a game drive, stopping at sunset to experience sundowners in the bush and a night game drive before concluding the day with dinner at the camp.

Day 4 — Tarangire › Ngorongoro Crater

Enjoy an early morning breakfast at the camp, followed by a scenic game drive en route to Kuro Airstrip. From there, board your flight to Manyara Airstrip, and transfer to Elewana The Manor at Ngorongoro for lunch. This afternoon enjoy activities such as a coffee plantation tour, horse-riding, high tea, and massage treatment.

Day 5 — Ngorongoro Crater

Today visit one of the ‘Natural Wonders of the World’ – the Ngorongoro Crater. Filmed and documented by naturalists from the four corners of the earth, the Ngorongoro Crater, the largest ‘dry’ caldera of its kind, is rich in wildlife. Large herds of zebra and wildebeest graze while sleeping lions laze in the sun. At dawn, the endangered black rhino returns to the thick cover of the crater forests after grazing on dew-laden grass in the morning mist. Just outside the crater’s ridge, tall Maasai tribesmen herd their cattle and goats over green pastures through the highland slopes, living alongside the wildlife as they have for centuries. Lunch is served in the Crater under an awning in a campaign-style luncheon. This spectacular setting at times belies belief. Whilst the resident hippos enjoy their daily bathing, herds of zebra and wildebeest keep a wary eye out for any number of predators.

You will begin your day with an early breakfast before embarking on a full-day tour of the Ngorongoro Crater. Enjoy a picturesque picnic lunch within the crater. Return to The Manor in the evening for a delicious dinner to conclude your memorable day.

Day 6 — Ngorongoro Crater › Serengeti National Park

This morning after breakfast take a game drive en route to the airstrip for your flight to the Serengeti National Park. Arrive in time for lunch at your chosen camp, before an afternoon game drive.

The world-renowned Serengeti National Park is home to the Great Migration, a spectacular event with over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle moving in search of fresh grazing. Starting in the southern Serengeti, the herds journey north, crossing the Mara River into Kenya’s Masai Mara, facing predators like lion and crocodile. This year-round cycle includes calving from January to March and river crossings from July to September, showcasing the raw beauty and survival of the African wilderness.

Day 7 — Serengeti National Park

Commence your day with a hearty breakfast at camp before heading out for a thrilling game drive. Return to camp for lunch, then embark on an afternoon game drive. Late afternoon, enjoy sundowners in the bush followed by a magical dining experience under the stars.

Day 8 — Serengeti National Park › Kilimanjaro

Begin your day with a delightful breakfast at camp before transferring to Manyara Airstrip. Upon arrival, board your flight to Arusha Airport, where you will be transferred to the charming Arusha Coffee Lodge for lunch. Depending on your outbound flight, a day room will be provided (subject to availability). Finally, take a road transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport where your journey through Tanzania concludes.
