2 Night in Arusha

Arusha in Africa is your gateway to Tanzanias treasure trove

Day 1 & 2

Arrive Kilimanjaro International Airport, and proceed to the Immigration desk for VISA Stamp. Before leaving the desk make sure your passport is correctly stamped with correct dates as well. Outside the airport you will meet with your safari guide with a sign board with one of your names. Our safari guides have gone through COVID 19 standard procedure course, and they will make sure they follow all the protocols. Depart the airport and drive to Haradalis home for dinner and overnight. 

Because of a long flight, the children will be tired and need time to relax a little bit before starting wildlife safari experience. Having a day to relax will give them a chance to adopt the weather and the new environment as well. Let them walk around, have bike ride, visit the market, swimming and so on. Let them be everywhere. The home has a big library with different books, they can also use the library. All meals are included on your day.

2 Nights Northern Serengeti

Day 3 & 4

To minimize driving time, I will advise that you take a flight from Arusha to Northern Serengeti. Why northern Serengeti? After the heavy rains in April and May, in July the ground begins to dry again, and availability of green grass and water become a problem, large herds of wildebeests accompanied by zebras begin to search for water and green grass. At this time of the year, you will find most of them in the Grumenti and Mara river areas. Travelling between mid-July to October gives you a chance to see the river crossing. Imagine seeing thousands of wildebeest singing solidarity song while crossing the river. It is amazing!

The flight will depart Arusha at 9:00am and arrive in the Serengeti at 11:00am. In Serengeti you will find your guide already waiting for you eagerly to show you the beauty of Tanzania. He will receive you and continue with the game drive towards the hotel for lunch. After lunch and a little rest, you will go again for a game drive in the afternoon. you will return for dinner and overnight at Mara under canvas where you will stay for 2 nights.
