An early start this morning will take you back into the Tarangire National Park for a full day, in the hopes of a glimpse of some of its elusive predators and changing landscapes. You'll either stay the whole day here with a packed lunch provided, or head back to the lodge to enjoy a hot lunch and a swim in the pool.  

Day 3  Tarangire to Serengeti

Listen to the sounds of nocturnal animals waking up to forage or hunt, all while sitting under the bright canopy of stars in the African sky.        

Day 4  Serengeti

Day 5  Serengeti to Ngorogoro Crater    
Enjoy some breakfast before departing the Serengeti with a morning game drive on our way to your next destination. In the late morning reach the Ngorogoro Crater, an ancient volcano, boasting one of the highest densities of predators stalking the abundant wildlife enclosed inside the crater's centre. Stop here for a picnic lunch before ascending the plateau.
