HOT AIR BALLOON SAFARI

Day 0: Free Airport up Service to Our Clients

Our guide will pick you up at Kilimanjaro International Airport/ Arusha Airport and take you to our office in Arusha. As local Tanzanians, our guides know well the country and Arusha city, so you’ll be in good hands from when you arrive to the moment you leave. You will be taken to  Coffee Lodge.

Day 1: Serengeti National Park

After breakfast drive up the crater highlands, stopping at the rim for a spectacular view of the Ngorongoro Crater. Continuing as far as the eye can see is the vast Serengeti. Serengeti mean “endless plain” and this 6900 sq. mile (18000 sq. km) park is inhabited by more than 2 million wildebeest. Large predators including lions, cheetahs and hyenas are drawn to the area by this abundance of prey which migrates throughout the park. Many smaller animals like rock hyrax, bat eared foxes, mongoose, honey badger, jackals, monkeys, baboons and African hares also inhabit the area along with nearly 500 species of birds. After the game drive, you will return back to 5 star lodge.

Day 2: Serengeti National Park

Today you will wake up very early in the morning for a sunrise game drive. Later at noon you will return back to the campsite/rest house for a brunch/lunch and then you will continue with the afternoon game drive. Later in the evening you will drive to 5 star lodge for an overnight.

Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

Today you will wake up very early to do an early morning game drive after breakfast, to spot the animals when they are more active and also to have a fantastic sun rise in front of you. The sunrise in the African Savanna is one of the most beautiful experiences one can have. You will then travel to Ngorongoro Crater, inhabited by almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa including the rare black rhino. In fact, the crater has the greatest concentration of wild life in the planet. It contains a river, several swamps, and a soda lake that from the top looks like steam, full of flamingos, a forest and open plains. The large bull elephants that reside here have extremely large tusks, due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. After a full day game drive, we expect to be back in Arusha around 6:00 pm although we can be flexible if needed (i.e. flight to catch). Likewise you will be transferred to curio shops where you can grab some souvenirs to take back home with you. After long day in the crater and drive back to Arusha you will spend the night at  Coffee Lodge.
