Day-by-Day Itinerary

2 Day

Full Day Serengeti — Private Big Cat Tracking

Rise before dawn for a sunrise game drive in the Serengeti. The early morning light is extraordinary — the golden glow transforms the plains into a photographer's dream.

Drive to the kopjes where lion prides bask on the warm granite, their cubs playing among the rocks. Your private guide knows exactly where each pride is located.

Return to the lodge for a late breakfast and midday rest. The heat of the day drives predators to seek shade, but the lodge offers the perfect sanctuary — relax by the pool, enjoy a spa treatment, or simply watch wildlife from the comfort of your suite.

In the afternoon, head out again to explore different sectors of the Seronera Valley. Visit the famous hippo pool, drive through the acacia woodland where leopards drape themselves over branches, and watch cheetahs on the open plains.

End the day with sundowners on the Serengeti plains, watching the sun set over the endless horizon.

3 Day

Full Day Serengeti — Deep Wilderness & Bush Dinner

Rise early for a day exploring the deeper reaches of the Serengeti — areas that most visitors never see. Your private guide has access to exclusive concessions and private areas where the wildlife is often more relaxed.

Drive to the western corridor where the Grumeti River flows through the Serengeti, attracting hippos, crocodiles, and big cats. The landscape here is different — more rugged, more wild, with dense woodland and riverine habitats.

Return to the lodge for a late breakfast and midday rest. In the afternoon, head out for a different experience — perhaps a walking safari with an armed ranger, or a visit to a Maasai boma to learn about the local culture.

End the day with a private bush dinner under the stars — your guide and chef will set up a romantic dining experience in the middle of the Serengeti, with gourmet food, fine wine, and the sounds of the wilderness as your soundtrack.

Serengeti → Ngorongoro (Flight) — Crater Luxury

Rise early for one final Serengeti game drive. The early morning light is extraordinary, and the Serengeti is particularly peaceful before other vehicles arrive.

Return to the lodge for breakfast, then check out and transfer to the airstrip for your flight to the Ngorongoro Crater. The scenic flight takes you over the Crater Highlands — the aerial views of the crater are extraordinary.

Land near the crater rim and transfer to your luxury lodge perched on the edge of the caldera. The lodge offers panoramic views across the crater — from your room, you can watch animals moving across the floor far below.

In the afternoon, take a short walk along the crater rim with your guide, learning about the geology and ecology of this remarkable place.

Return to the lodge for sundowner cocktails as the sun sets over the crater walls, painting the landscape in shades of gold and amber.

5 Day

Ngorongoro Crater — Full Day Private Game Drive

Rise before dawn and descend 600 metres to the Ngorongoro Crater floor for a full-day game drive. The descent is dramatic — the road spirals down the crater wall through dense montane forest where Colobus monkeys leap between the branches.

As you reach the floor, the landscape opens into vast grasslands dotted with flamingos, zebras, and wildebeest. The crater is a self-contained ecosystem with its own microclimate, grasslands, lakes, and forests. Over 25,000 animals live within the ancient volcanic walls.

Drive to the hippo pool where enormous hippos surface and submerge in the crystal-clear water. Continue through the Lerai Forest where elephants browse among the yellow-barked acacias. Picnic lunch beside the lake with views of the crater walls rising 600 metres above you.

The crater is the best place in Africa to see black rhino, with around 25 individuals living within the crater walls.

Ascend the crater rim in the afternoon and return to your luxury lodge. Watch the sunset paint the crater walls gold from your private balcony.

6 Day

Ngorongoro → Zanzibar — Spice Island Paradise

Rise before dawn for a final experience — watch the sunrise over the Ngorongoro Crater from the rim viewpoint. As the first light touches the crater floor, the landscape transforms from shadow to gold.

After breakfast, transfer to the airstrip for your flight to Zanzibar. As you fly over the Serengeti and the Indian Ocean, take one last look at the wilderness below.

Land at Zanzibar Airport and transfer to the finest luxury beach resort on the island. The resort is positioned on a pristine white-sand beach with turquoise Indian Ocean waters.

Check into your beachfront villa with private pool, butler service, and ocean views. Settle in with a welcome champagne and light lunch.

In the afternoon, take a dip in your private pool, relax on the beach, or enjoy a couples' spa treatment.

End the day with a sunset champagne toast on the beach, watching the sun dip below the Indian Ocean horizon.

Zanzibar — Beach Day & Stone Town

Today is dedicated to Zanzibar — and it will be extraordinary.

Rise early for a morning at the beach. The early morning light is perfect for swimming, snorkelling, or simply relaxing on the pristine white sand.

After breakfast, drive to Stone Town — the historic heart of Zanzibar and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore the narrow streets and alleyways, visit the spice markets, and learn about the island's complex history.

Visit the House of Wonders, the Old Fort, and the Slave Market — each telling a different chapter of Zanzibar's extraordinary history. Stop for a lunch of fresh seafood at a local restaurant.

In the afternoon, return to the beach resort for a final afternoon of relaxation. Enjoy a couples' spa treatment, swim in the turquoise waters, or simply relax on the beach.

End the day with a farewell dinner on the beach — fresh seafood, tropical cocktails, and the sound of the Indian Ocean.

Rise early for a final morning at the beach. The early morning light is perfect for swimming, snorkelling, or simply relaxing on the pristine white sand.

Return to the resort for a full breakfast, then check out and transfer to Zanzibar Airport for your flight back to Arusha. As you fly over the Indian Ocean, take one last look at the turquoise waters and white-sand beaches.
