Detailed Itinerary for the 2-Day Tanzania Safari Tour Package
This 2-day Tanzania safari tour itinerary is designed to give you a complete safari experience with a day each at Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater.
Day 1: Discovering Tarangire National Park
i. Departure from Arusha: Early morning, we’ll pick you up from your Arusha hotel and begin our journey to Tarangire National Park—a 2-3 hour scenic drive through rural Tanzania.
ii. Safari in Tarangire National Park: Once in Tarangire, you’ll dive into an all-day safari across one of Tanzania's most diverse and vibrant landscapes. Known for its huge herds of elephants, this park offers incredible sights of elephant families bathing, playing, and sometimes even wrestling with each other in the Tarangire River. And that’s just the start!
iii. Wildlife Encounters: You’ll spot zebra, giraffe, wildebeest, and buffalo, as well as predators like lions and hyenas. Tarangire is also a paradise for bird watchers with over 500 bird species, from the elegant kori bustard to the colorful yellow-collared lovebird. The iconic baobab trees towering across the plains give the park a unique look, providing fantastic backdrops for photos and shelter for countless animals.
iv. Evening Relaxation: After an exhilarating day in the wild, you’ll retire to your comfortable safari lodge or camp. Enjoy a hearty dinner and relax under the African sky as you reflect on the incredible wildlife you encountered today.
Day 2: Exploring the Ngorongoro Crater
i. Early Morning Departure: After breakfast, we’ll drive to Ngorongoro Crater, arriving at the crater rim for an early descent into this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The journey from Tarangire to Ngorongoro takes about 3-4 hours, with a chance to enjoy the scenic views and possibly spot more wildlife along the way.
ii. Crater Game Drive: As you descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, you’ll be greeted by one of the most visually stunning natural environments on the planet. Known as the "Cradle of Life," this 20-kilometer-wide volcanic caldera is home to an incredible density of wildlife. The crater’s diverse ecosystem supports thousands of animals, including the Big Five—lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and the critically endangered black rhinoceros.
iii. A Unique Wildlife Haven: Unlike other safari destinations, Ngorongoro’s animals remain here year-round due to the crater’s self-contained ecosystem. Your guide will help you spot everything from large lion prides to the elusive serval cat, grazing zebras, and even hippos lazing in the crater's marshes. The landscapes shift from grasslands to swamps and lakes, each home to a different cast of wildlife, creating a “safari within a safari” experience.
iv. Afternoon Return to Arusha: Following a day packed with wildlife encounters, we’ll start our journey back to Arusha. Along the way, you can reflect on the breathtaking landscapes and memorable moments from these two incredible parks. You’ll arrive in Arusha by late afternoon or early evening, marking the end of your 2-day Tanzania safari tour.
