The complete day-by-day plan

Your 13 days journey.

This is the full published programme, expanded day by day from the supplied itinerary. Final flight times, exact game-drive timing and activity operation follow your confirmed travel dates and local conditions.

Day 1

Arusha

Arrival in Arusha

Your driver meets you privately on arrival and transfers you to Giraffe Manor Arusha. Check in, refresh and enjoy a calm dinner; the first night is deliberately paced as a soft landing.

Your private arrival team confirms the transfer details against your flight, assists with luggage and keeps the first evening deliberately simple. This protects the next morning’s start and gives you time to settle into Tanzania before the route begins in earnest.

Overnight & mealsGiraffe Manor Arusha · Dinner
Day 2

Arusha

Arusha National Park

Combine a scenic game drive through Arusha National Park with a guided walk to the waterfalls. Return to the lodge for leisure and a private bush dinner at sunset, subject to lodge arrangement and weather.

The day is designed as a gentle first wildlife chapter rather than a rushed park visit. Your walking activity follows the arranged guide and park procedures, while the timing of the lodge dinner and any bush setting remains subject to the lodge arrangement and weather.

Day 3

Tarangire

To Tarangire

Leave Arusha after breakfast and travel to Tarangire for game viewing en route or on arrival. Settle into Tarangire Safari Haven Camp, then enjoy the first evening in a tented setting close to nature.

Tarangire is given enough time to feel like a destination in its own right. Game-drive decisions follow current wildlife movement, light and road conditions; the included walking or night activity, where shown in the offer, remains subject to lodge operation, park rules and final confirmation.

Day 4

Tarangire

Tarangire exploration

Use the second Tarangire day for deeper private game drives around elephant herds, baobab landscapes, birdlife and seasonal wildlife movement. The guide adjusts the pace for stops, photography and the best current sightings.

Day 5

Serengeti

To the Serengeti via Ngorongoro

Travel through the highlands toward the Serengeti, including a Maasai boma visit in Ngorongoro. Continue to Serengeti Safari Haven for an evening surrounded by the plains.

The Serengeti programme is private and responsive, not a fixed vehicle circuit. Your guide uses the morning briefing and current sightings to shape the route, with a picnic or a lodge break chosen around the day’s actual wildlife opportunities and your preferred pace.

Day 6

Serengeti

Serengeti wildlife day

Begin early for private tracking of big cats, plains game and seasonal movement. Keep the day as a full drive with a picnic lunch or a split-day rhythm with time back at camp.

A second Serengeti day

Day 8

Ngorongoro

Sunrise balloon and Ngorongoro

Take off before sunrise for the complimentary balloon flight over the Serengeti, then continue toward the Ngorongoro highlands. Your evening is at Ngorongoro Oldeani Mountain Lodge, positioned for an easier crater start.

The flight is operated under the balloon company’s safety procedures and depends on suitable weather. The exact post-flight rhythm is confirmed on the day, preserving time for the onward transfer and the included highland stay.

Day 9

Zanzibar

Crater safari and fly to Zanzibar

Descend early into the Ngorongoro Crater, enjoy a picnic lunch and continue wildlife viewing before the afternoon road transfer to Arusha Airport. Fly to Zanzibar, meet your transfer and begin four all-inclusive nights at Melia Zanzibar.

An early crater descent gives the day the best balance of softer light, cooler conditions and time on the floor. Wildlife is never guaranteed, but the private guide can adjust the route between grassland, woodland, marsh and lake-edge habitats while remaining within the conservation-area rules.

Day 10

Arusha

Mnemba Island snorkeling

Use the first complete Zanzibar day for the included Mnemba-area snorkeling experience. Return to the resort for an all-inclusive beach afternoon and evening.

The marine experience is arranged around tide, sea and operator conditions. The local team confirms the departure timing and may adapt the sequence of the day to keep the experience safe and enjoyable.
