Sample Itinerary

Day 1
Arrive and transfer to a nearby airport hotel for the night.

Day 2
Depart for the Ngorongoro Crater area, stopping en route for a first safari drive at Tarangire National Park, famous for its elephants! Overnight near the Crater.

Day 3
Safari inside the Crater: learn all about the animals who live in this almost self-contained Garden of Eden!

Day 4
Additional safari in the Crater before continuing to the Serengeti National Park, site of the Great Migration. Overnight at an authentic African Tented Safari Camp.

Day 5
Full day on safari in the Central Serengeti searching for BIG Cats and other major species. Return to the Tented Camp for overnight.

Day 6
Depart for the Northern Serengeti region, where the great migration is expected to be concentrated. The millions of wildebeest may even be trying to cross the crocodile infested rivers during your time here. Overnight at a wilderness camp.

Days 7/8/9
Three full days in the main migration area. Lorne will be explaining all about this incredible spectacle (and you will return home knowing more about the wildlife of Africa than you could ever learn in a classroom!) Lorne will be teaching photography as well. Whether a beginner or an experienced photographer, Lorne will teach you how best to capture this once in a lifetime event.

Day 10
Today marks the end of the safari. You’ll transfer to an airstrip in the northern Serengeti and fly back to Kilimanjaro International Airport to connect to your onward flight.
