Begin day 2 of your Tanzania safari by waking up early, then embark on a journey from Arusha to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. As you travel, relax and appreciate the picturesque route that meanders across the Great Rift Valley, passes through the enchanting crater forest, and eventually leads you to the awe-inspiring Ngorongoro Crater.

This collapsed volcano stands as one of Tanzania’s most popular destinations, and its allure is immediately evident. Recognized as one of Africa’s Seven Natural Wonders, the crater boasts the highest concentration of wildlife on the continent, teeming with majestic elephants, lions, buffaloes, hippos, and even the elusive black rhino. Safely explore this distinctive landscape from the comfort of your private safari vehicle, immersing yourself in the epitome of natural beauty.

Moreover, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area offers an array of unforgettable activities that should be on any Tanzania bucket list. You can immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage by visiting a traditional Maasai village, or marvel at the Laetoli Footprint, which dates back approximately 3.6 million years and represents the oldest known footprints of early humans.

After an action-packed day at the Ngorongoro Crater, enjoy a delicious fresh breakfast as the sun rises and depart to your next Tanzania destination: the Tarangire National Park for a full day game drive. One of the lesser-visited national parks of atmosphere, expect to see few other travelers on your journey and plenty of private moments to admire majestic herds of elephants roaming amidst the iconic Baobab trees.

Home to the highest concentration of wild elephants in the world, the Tarangire offers up unbeatable elephant sightings. Sometimes herds of up to 300 elephants can be seen around the Tarangire River, drinking from the shallows or enjoying a cooling mud bath. Apart from elephants, Tarangire is a paradise for bird lovers. In the area around these swamps, you can also see lions, leopards, cheetahs and even tree-climbing pythons.

On the final night of your 5 days Tanzania safari, enjoy the luxury of your accommodation at the Sangaiwe Tented Lodge, located in one of the most beautiful spots of the Tarangire region and offering amazing views over the Tarangire savannah.

After a gorgeous final evening with fantastic food and an unforgettable sunset, today is your last day on your Tanzania safari. Depending on your flight, use your last morning to fit in a final, epic game drive. You will be picked up from your Tarangire safari lodge by your private driver and taken to Kilimanjaro airport in time for your return journey home.
