The adventure begins at Arusha, where you will stay one night at Machweo House & Wellness Retreat. The first stop on your safari is Plantation Lodge, a wonderful little property with excellent access to Lake Manyara and the Ngorongoro Crater. Finally, you’ll be based at Lemala Ewanjan Tented Camp for the final part of your tour, which includes seeing the Great Migration!

The main activity you’ll enjoy while on safari is game drives. The Crater is famous for being home to all Big Five species – lion, rhino, leopard, elephant, and buffalo – as well as numerous other predators and herbivores. The Serengeti is another huge hit for big game, while Lake Manyara never fails to thrill due to its spectacular scenery, vast flocks of flamingo, and tree-climbing lions.
