Depart from Arusha in the morning and fly over the distinct plains of the Serengeti, where the grass sways in the breeze and looks like a sea of rippling gold. From the plane herds of elephants can be seen parading through the prairie, appearing first as small dots in a gilded field until the plane descends, the elephants grow, and you land amongst the natural beauty of the Serengeti Nature Reserve.

Once on the ground, you will begin your Tanzanian safari trip with a game drive. The Serengeti is one of the world’s best known wildlife reserves due to its high volume of animals and its being home to one of the best known lions to ever have been conjured: Simba, from the “The Lion King.” The warm afternoon smells of dry grass and soft earth. Traverse the grounds with your well-informed guide, who will point
out the varieties of wildlife that linger in the bush.

As the lush green grass of the Serengeti begins to fade to a dry gold, the wildebeest move between the vast flatlands of the Serengeti and the continuous green of various areas of Kenya in what is called “The Great Migration.” Rise and shine in the depths of wildlife, within the heart of the Serengeti, where the sound of birdcalls in the sunrise is enough to remind you that the world around your campsite is open and inviting. It is the same world that beckons you to explore, calling you to rouse yourself from bed, enjoy the soothing warmth of your morning coffee, and dive back into your vehicle after breakfast to see more.

Begin your day with a delicious and hardy breakfast before embarking on a morning game drive. The open space of your campsite, along with the welcoming water tanks, is often an inviting proposition for local elephants; after all, an elephant never forgets. On this morning you may wake up to one of the few extraordinary scenes of the large, gray mass of an elephant dipping its long trunk into the water tank in
the cool of the morning.

The early morning visit from the elephant is never enough when the Serengeti is your morning playground. Wave goodbye to the golden plains of the Serengeti as you end your morning game drive.Make your way to Olduvai Gorge. The afternoon sun warms the world giving the area the aroma of freshly baked clay.

The morning mist that continuously keeps the crater fresh and green fades in the morning. The crater is
25 meters across and brimming with wildlife. The grass beams in the sunlight; specks of dew sparkle in
the bright light of the morning.

Once deep inside the crater, you will be able to see the exceptional wildlife up close and active.

Continue your journey from the crater to the Mto wa Mbu village market. Here you will find a variety of goods that you can dawdle over in search
souvenirs or a taste of the local customs and environment.

Wake up to another beautiful sunrise in Tanzania. The low mist rises from the lake and dissipates. After breakfast you will head out to explore the depths of Lake Manyara National Park. The orange and gold sky fills the distance until you see Lake Manyara no longer reflecting the gold of the sun but shining bright pink in the morning air. Known for its birdlife, flamingos are exceptionally prevalent at the lake, and they shine as bright as the sun along its shore, if the sun were indeed pink. Lake Manyara is also
known for its tree-climbing lions.

Today you will have another chance to learn about the history of the Maasai people through their own experiences and oratory. A Maasai guide will walk you through the difference in their clothing, his cloth bright red, his earlobes stretched and dangling, a wide-beaded bracelet decorating his wrist.Continue from your moment of cultural education to a walking safari through the bush of the Great Rift
Valley. Eventually time will speed up once again, your last day exploring Africa coming to an end. Return to Arusha for the end of your journey with golden memories still radiant. Or, consider adding on an extension to your trip.
