The park’s varied habitat attracts a wide variety of animals, including one of Africa’s largest concentrations of elephants, Lake Manyara’s unique tree-climbing lions, as well as large flocks of flamingos attracted by the algae in the lake.

MEALS: Lunch, dinner, bed, and breakfast

ACCOMMODATION: lodge

Day 4 Lake Eyasi

An exciting day today as you head to Lake Eyasi, home to a number of different tribal groups. Most popular for the children will be a visit to a Hadzabe (bushman) family. Learn how to make fire by rubbing a stick vigorously into a hardwood block until wisps of smoke appear which are then used to light dried grass. Practice firing a bow and arrow at a grass target, causing much hilarity with the local boys who will then demonstrate their (vastly superior) shooting skills! You may even be invited to join the bushmen on a hunt in the bush in the search for small wild animals – usually rabbits, squirrels, or birds.

Day 5 Lake Eyasi to Ngorongoro

After breakfast, drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Area, You will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro National Park supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos, and other water birds can usually be seen here. Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro rhino lodge/ Ngorongoro Serena Lodge

MEALS: Lunch, dinner, bed, and breakfast

Day 6 Ngorongoro Crater to Serengeti

Early morning breakfast and after depart to Serengeti National Park. We will stop over at Olduvai Gorge, boasting a history dating back to the dawn of time.

Do game drive in Serengeti and overnight at Matawi Serengeti/Serena Lodge

MEALS: Lunch, dinner, bed, and breakfast.

It is a true spectacle and impressive to watch millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles thunder across the endless plains of the Serengeti. Together with your private guide, you will be looking for the herds across the plains. Apart from the migratory animals, you will also get to see lots of other animals, like lions, cheetahs, leopards, and many more.

Day 10 Zanzibar

Today after breakfast drive to Seronera Airstrip for a flight to Zanzibar. On arrival at Zanzibar airport, you will meet and greet our director, then provide a private transfer to North cost beach, check-in at the hotel, rest and enjoy the ocean breeze from the hotel.

Day 11 – 14 Zanzibar

Three full days to enjoy Zanzibar. Although it may be hard to tear the children away from the beach or the pool, there are some wonderful excursions here. Perhaps spend a morning exploring the wonderful labyrinthine streets of Stone Town. Most of the city was built in the 19th century when Zanzibar was a thriving trading community, a vital stop on the Spice Route where traders would stock up on cardamom, cinnamon, pepper and more. It is beautifully well preserved and you can spend hours wandering the narrow streets, stopping in small cafes to sample the local cuisine, following your nose into little alleyways flanked with crumbling colonial buildings, wrought iron balconies and thick wooden doors decorated with brass studs.

Another great activity is a snorkeling excursion on Mnemba Island, home to some of the best snorkeling in East Africa. The visibility is superb and the coral provides a home to darting moray eels, brightly colored star fish, stingrays and turtles.

Day 15 Departure

Enjoy your last day at our beautiful white sand beach of Zanzibar before your transfer to the airport for your departure flight.
