Day 1 of 3
Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire
Leave Arusha for a planned game drive in Tarangire. Discuss a packed lunch and the time available inside the park before continuing to your accommodation. This plan assumes you are already in Arusha the night before.
Overnight: Karatu area.
Day 2 of 3
Day 2: Lake Manyara and time to unwind
Visit Lake Manyara for a game drive, with time for the forest and lake-edge scenery as conditions allow. Return to your Karatu-area base rather than changing accommodation. Your guide will plan the day around park access and your interests.
Overnight: Karatu area.
Day 3 of 3
Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater and return to Arusha
Travel to the Ngorongoro area for a planned crater game drive, followed by the return to Arusha. Treat this as a full travel and safari day; arrange an onward overnight stay unless the team confirms a suitable departure connection.
Overnight: No overnight included in this outline.
What your quotation needs to confirm
- The named accommodation, room arrangements, and number of nights.
- Guiding, safari vehicle arrangements, transfers, and each planned activity.
- Meals, drinking water, park entry, conservation fees, and any crater arrangements.
- For fly-in options: flight sectors, baggage limits, airstrip transfers, and connection buffers.
- Any optional activities and the terms for payment, changes, and cancellation.
No price or inclusion is guaranteed by this outline. International flights, visas, travel insurance, gratuities, and personal expenses should be budgeted separately unless your written quotation expressly includes an item. Ask about any additional hotel nights before or after the safari.
