Day 1 of 4
Day 1: Arusha to the Serengeti
Begin the road journey toward your proposed Serengeti accommodation. This is a long transfer day, with any game viewing dependent on arrival time and access arrangements. A flight alternative can be discussed and quoted separately if available.
Overnight: Serengeti camp or lodge.
Day 2 of 4
Day 2: A full day to explore the Serengeti
Spend the day on planned game drives from your base. Discuss your interests with the guide and allow wildlife activity to shape the pace. The camp area should be selected for your dates; migration sightings and river crossings cannot be promised.
Overnight: Serengeti camp or lodge.
Day 3 of 4
Day 3: Serengeti to the Karatu area
Plan a final game drive where timing permits, then continue toward the Ngorongoro highlands and Karatu. Keep the onward drive in mind when deciding departure time from camp. Optional stops need to fit the route and be agreed in advance.
Overnight: Karatu area.
Day 4 of 4
Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater and Arusha
Visit the crater on the planned final safari day before continuing to Arusha. Confirm the crater arrangements, meals, and return schedule in your quotation. An onward overnight stay is recommended unless a specific connection has been checked.
Overnight: No overnight included in this outline.
What your quotation needs to confirm
