Tarangire

Spend the early morning and late afternoon exploring this unique and quieter area known for its large concentrations of elephants and wildlife, attracted to the Tarangire River.

Serengeti

Rise to the sound of the birds, enjoy a hot cup of coffee and set off on your morning game drive where you’ll be spotting herds of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle, along with buffalo, elephant and giraffe, to name a few. The game viewing here won’t disappoint you – whenever you travel and is truly remarkable. Back at the lodge, enjoy meals and some R&R. Wallow in the pool as you absorb the magnificent view or relax in the privacy of your balcony immersed in the surrounding solitude. End the day with dinner as the sounds of the night begin to fill the air.

Serengeti

Another day to experience this vast and un-spoilt wilderness. Besides the seasonal wildebeest migration for which the park is famous, it also supports a large diversity of game that wanders the open plains. You’ll always be on the lookout for the Big-5 – lion, elephant, rhinoceros, buffalo and the elusive leopard – perhaps you’ll even be lucky enough to see a predator stalking its prey. Enjoy meals and leisure time at the lodge.

The afternoon is at your leisure to enjoy the magnificent views of the crater floor or take an optional visit to the local Masai village before enjoying dinner at the lodge.

Ngorongoro Crater

An early morning start to the day before descending the narrow track to the crater floor, where you’ll enjoy a picnic breakfast.
