Tanzania Couple Safari (7N) - Classic

On the first day of your trip, you will fly in to Kilimanjaro International Airport and transfer by road to Machweo House & Wellness Retreat, a journey of just half an hour. Machweo is one of our favourite properties in Arusha, for its exceptionally good food and drink matched with high standards of service. Each of the property’s nine rooms is simple and charming, featuring a separate seating area and a private balcony. Machweo’s swimming pool is the focus of the communal spaces, and the perfect place to relax after your flight.

Board basis and activities:
B&B accommodation, including early morning tea and coffee on veranda and during breakfast, and afternoon tea. Activities at extra cost include coffee tours, cultural walks, and excursions into Arusha.

After your night at Machweo, you will drive to Plantation Lodge. This property is situated in Tanzania’s Karatu area, just 30 minutes’ drive from Lake Manyara National Park and an hour from the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. All rooms and suites are very pleasantly styled, and based around central tropical gardens that include a lovely pool. Your first day here will involve a game drive in Lake Manyara, while the second day is dedicated to exploring the Ngorongoro Crater, also by safari vehicle. In between activities, you can take time to enjoy the lodge’s own coffee plantation and working farm.

Full-board accommodation, including all meals, soft drinks, a collection of house alcoholic drinks, private vehicle safari with private guide in Lake Manyara N.P. and the Ngorongoro Crater, and a laundry service.

On Day 4 of your holiday, you will fly from Karatu to the Central Serengeti for your stay at Lemala Ewanjan. Situated in the wildlife-rich Seronera valley, on the western slopes of Makoma Hill, this camp boasts amazing views across the Serengeti plains. Communal spaces include a lounge and dining area for communal meals, and there’s also a fire-pit for al fresco socialising. Each of the 12 safari tents here is spacious and comfortable, with well-appointed en-suite facilities. Your time around camp will be spent viewing all the local wildlife, not least the Great Migration!
