Arusha Lake Manyara National Park / Tarangire National Park
In the morning we will collect you from your hotel and drive you to Lake Manyara National Park. The park lies and is bordered between the Rift Valley Escarpment and the dusty Masai Steppe. On the western side is a forest and also the alkaline Manyara Lake which covers the largest area of the park. The park was established in 1960 to give elephants, giraffes, buffalo, antelopes, and gazelles a protected habitat. The Lake Manyara National Park is also home to the tree-climbing lions – tree climbing is a trait not normally found amongst big cats and it is quite a sight to see. Upon entering the park your driver will open the vehicle roof and you can then start your wildlife watching in earnest. In the late afternoon, you will arrive at Kudu Lodge overnight. Lunch; Dinner
Lake Manyara National Park – Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, the safari tour marks the start of our program 5 days Serengeti migration-safari. It’s the way to the fertile crater highlands where the Iraqi people grow wheat, corn, and coffee. At midday, you will reach the plains of Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti National Park is the second-largest park in Tanzania and is about the same size as Hawaii. The southern part is dominated by grassland and is, therefore, a good hunting ground for the cheetah, while to the north / western parts a more hills tree savanna landscape dominates. The Serengeti migration is famous for up to one million wildebeest and two hundred thousand zebras. This migration has become to be known as the “Great Wildebeest Migration” and each year this natural spectacle is guaranteed. This in itself sets the Serengeti aside as a unique place to watch and observe wildlife. You will have your evening meal and overnight stay at

Serengeti National Park
This is another third night of our program: 5 days Serengeti migration-safari. The whole day is devoted to you observing the wildlife in the Serengeti National Park. The areas that you will visit depend upon the location of the herds. Generally, the herds of wildebeest and zebras during the short rain season of October to November tend to be found moving from the hills in the north to the plains in the south. They return slowly during the longer rain season in April, May, and June. Fluctuations in precipitation can affect the animals’ location from year to year, however, your guide will know the exact location of the animals and the best vantage spots. A visit to the Visit Centre, is also possible (booking in advance), where you can learn about Serengeti’s history and current research of Frankfurter Zoologist Gesellschaft (Frankfurt zoological society in Tanzania). You will overnight again at Accommodation Plan:

After lunch, at a picnic place, you will slowly drive in the direction of the Ngorongoro Crater. On the way, you will pass the Olduvai Gorge which became world known due to the archaeological work of the English research couple Leaky. In the sixties here they found the oldest remains of prehistoric man and in a small museum nearby their work is documented (a visit is optional). As soon as the crater’s edge is reached you will have a superb view into the caldera.

On the grass steppe and in the acacia tree woods you will find almost all species found on the east African savanna; with the exception of Topi, Masai Giraffe, and Impala. Quite often you can observe the “Big Five” lions, elephants, buffalo, rhinoceros, and leopards within a couple of hours. After an extensive wildlife tour and a picnic, you will leave the caldera in the afternoon and drive back to Arusha.

Travelicious Review
Budapest’s reputation as a food capital dates largely from the late 19th and the first half of the 20th century and, despite a fallow period under communism, the city is once again commanding attention. So, too, are Hungary's excellent wines – from Eger's complex reds and Somló’s flinty whites to honey-sweet Tokaj.
