Tour Plan

Day 1

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Your adventure begins with a 7:30 AM pick-up from your hotel in Arusha, followed by a drive to Tarangire National Park for a full-day safari with picnic lunch. As Tanzania’s third largest park, Tarangire is famous for its giant baobab trees and the Tarangire River, which draws in a remarkable variety of wildlife. The park is well known for hosting some of the largest elephant herds in Africa, and it’s also home to lions, leopards, cheetahs, kudu, giraffes, buffalo, elands, oryx, and zebras. After a rewarding game drive, you’ll proceed to your lodge or tented camp where a warm dinner will be served.

Day 2

Journey to Lake Natron

After breakfast around 8:00 AM, you'll depart with packed lunches heading to the stunning and remote Lake Natron. The drive from Mto wa Mbu/Manyara takes about 3.5 hours. Upon arrival and check-in at your accommodation, you'll enjoy a scenic walking tour along the shores of the lake, guided by a local Maasai. Lake Natron’s shallow, alkaline waters provide the ideal breeding grounds for lesser flamingos up to two million nest here between September and January. After the lakeside exploration, return to your camp/lodge for dinner and a restful evening.

Day 3

Lake Natron to Serengeti National Park

Start the morning early with a light hike to the beautiful Ngare Sero Waterfalls around 6:00 AM, led by a Maasai guide. Enjoy the refreshing mist from the falls before returning to your lodge by 8:30 AM for breakfast. Soon after, begin the drive towards the world-famous Serengeti National Park. This scenic route passes through rural villages, savannah landscapes, and woodlands, with chances to spot wildlife along the way. You’ll arrive at Serengeti in the afternoon and embark on a game drive in the vast plains, known for their rich wildlife and iconic predator sightings. Enjoy a picnic lunch during the drive. The day concludes with dinner and overnight at your lodge in central Serengeti.

Day 4

Exploring Central Serengeti

You can opt for a full-day game drive starting at 9:00 AM with packed lunch or leave as early as 6:00 AM for a sunrise safari followed by breakfast and another drive later in the day. Today, you'll explore the central Serengeti, particularly the Seronera region, celebrated for its incredible concentration of wildlife and year-round water source, the Seronera River. This area teems with lions, leopards, elephants, and many other species. Even outside of migration season, lion prides are commonly seen. After a day full of wildlife encounters and a picnic lunch, you’ll return to camp by evening for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 5

Serengeti to Ngorongoro

After an early breakfast around 6:30 AM, head out for a morning safari in Serengeti with a packed lunch. Depending on what you’ve already experienced and your interests, your guide will select the best areas for the game drive. Expect more sightings of big cats and other Serengeti residents. By early afternoon, begin your journey to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Your overnight will either be inside the conservation area or in Karatu, depending on your lodge selection. Wrap up the day with dinner and overnight rest.

Day 6

Ngorongoro Crater Tour & Return to Arusha

On your final safari day, you’ll begin with an early breakfast and descend into the Ngorongoro Crater by 6:30 AM. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera and a haven for diverse wildlife, including elephants, black rhinos, lions, buffalo, hippos, hyenas, and cheetahs. The 5-hour crater floor game drive promises exceptional wildlife viewing, especially around the scenic Hippo Pool where you’ll also enjoy a picnic lunch. After the safari, begin the steep ascent out of the crater and drive approximately four hours back to Arusha. You’ll be dropped off at your hotel or preferred location by 6:00 PM, bringing your unforgettable journey to a close.

  Geheimtipp ohne Risiko wenn man ein kleines tansanisches Unternehmen unterstützen möchte Wir hatten eine wunderschöne 9-tägige Safari mit Kilimanjaro Lifetime Adventures! Die Guides Juma Kileo (Vogelexperte), Ben (Fahrer und Guide) und der Koch Victor waren sehr aufmerksam, freundlich und lustig - und unglaublich kompetent. Bei der Tourenplanung wurde unsere Tour ganz individuell auf uns zugeschnitten und alle unsere vielen, teilweise auch ungewöhnlichen Wünsche wurden berücksichtigt und umgesetzt. Auch ganz kurzfristig hat Elly, der Chef, noch einen Walk mit Ranger im Tarangire Nationalpark möglich gemacht! Das Essen war super, wir haben unfassbar viele Tiere gesehen, inklusive die Big Five. Die Guides kannten sich extrem gut aus und konnten viel zu den Tieren erzählen. Wir hatten eine Zeltsafari, ich habe es geliebt, in der Natur zu sein! Wer ein kleines Unternehmen von einem lokalen Tansanier und Vater von vier Kindern unterstützen möchte, ist hier an der richtigen Adresse. Elly ist unglaublich freundlich und offen. Wir hatten vor 16 Jahren bereits eine Safari mit ihm und können ihn und sein Team von ganzem Herzen weiterempfehlen! Ein Geheimtipp!

  Safari an Kilimanjaro adventure We had an amazing experience with Kilimanjaro Lifetime Adventures! We did a 4-day safari, visiting Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro, followed by a 7-day Kilimanjaro climb via the Lemosho Route. The safari was incredible. Everything was very well organized, our guide was great, and we saw so many animals and beautiful places. Serengeti and Ngorongoro were definitely unforgettable. The Kilimanjaro climb was also an amazing experience. The guides and the whole team were fantastic. Everyone was super friendly, helpful and always looking after us. The guides kept us motivated, especially during the harder parts of the climb, and made sure we were doing well every day. A huge thank you to the guides, porters and cooks. They work incredibly hard and always had a smile on their faces. The food on the mountain was also much better than we expected! Reaching the summit was something we will never forget, and a big part of that is thanks to the amazing team that helped us get there. We would 100% recommend Kilimanjaro Lifetime Adventures for both safari and Kilimanjaro. Great organization, great people and an unforgettable experience. Asante sana to the whole team! 🇹🇿🏔️🦁

  Kilimanjaro 6 day Marangu Flawless organization – an unforgettable Kilimanjaro trek!I cannot recommend this tour operator highly enough! Everything was absolutely perfectly prepared from start to finish. Communication with the team was flawless—they responded quickly and helped clarify every single doubt we had before the trip. Even though our flight landed late at night, a driver was already waiting for us at the airport to take us to a very good, comfortable hotel. The next morning, we met our mountain crew: the knowledgeable guides, hardworking porters, an amazing cook, and Vincent, who turned out to be the best waiter ever! Once on the mountain, everything was perfectly planned and organized from A to Z. Absolutely everything went strictly according to plan, and the food they served was simply delicious! If you are planning to climb Kilimanjaro, look no further. This company handles everything perfectly, allowing you to just focus on the trek. 10/10!

  Amazing experience Our guide Willy explained everything very well and was very friendly. The waterfall was beautiful and it was a great adventure to come there. The coffee tour was really nice and gave us an inside look in the process of making coffee.

  Great experience with Lifetime I climbed the mountain with my two boys. Lifetime assigned us a wonderful team with experienced guides. We enjoyed hiking in different landscapes with the tour guides telling us stories along the way. Before the summit day my elder son got altitude sickness and at that moment all the staff showed great care and their professionalism. When we finally came down safe, I felt that they are not just providing service but treating us with their genuine good heart. I’m very impressed with their way of solving things and following each need we have, especially when it comes to safety. I would definitely come back to climb the mountain again and will choose lifetime again.

  タンザニア、サファリと街歩き 友人に誘われて少し迷いました。どこのツアーでもお断りされることもある高齢の私が行けるとも思えなかったからです。でもでも自然の中の動物達に会いたいと参加しました。想像していたより色んな種類の動物達や鳥達に会えて満足しました。自然の中での日々の営み、狩りの場面も目前で見ることができました。テレビでは無くてです。本当に感動しました。動物達は生き生きとして綺麗でした。公園の中は動物の楽園かもしれません。ホテルも最高級で申し訳ないくらいでしたし、お食事も美味しく頂きました。街歩きでの市場は興味深く見学しました。お馴染みの野菜もあればこれはどんな調理をしたら良いのかと言う珍しいお野菜や果物も豊富でした。友人にも行ける時に行った方が良いと伝えたいと思います。

  Perfect itinerary and logistics. Great support and communicartion. Our 6th trip to Tanzania with KLTA! They arranged the perfect itinerary and logistics for our safari trip this time. Based on our requests, they booked thoughtful and comfortable hotels for us, and arranged a kind, experienced safari driver. Even during the trip, they kept in touch and made sure everything was going well. The optional local market tour in Moshi was also exciting!

  初めてのタンザニアを満喫できました！ ゲームサファリとローカルマーケットやムトワムブ村でのカルチャー体験との組み合わせの8日間をアレンジしていただきました。セレンゲティでのサファリ体験は想像を超えた素晴らしさで、大自然を満喫しました！テントロッジも臨場感満載。人数の変更に伴う宿泊先の確保や、経験豊かなドライバーの手配など、何もかもに感謝です！

  Ein kompetenter örtlicher Reiseleiter lohnt sich in jedem Fall! Als Reiseleitung konnte ich mich voll entspannen - alles andere war top organisiert!! Da ich oft anderweitig in Afrika unterwegs bin, weiß ich natürlich auch um diverse Sicherheitsrisiken, vor denen oft und zu Recht gewarnt wird. Deshalb kann ich allen Interessierten nur dringend raten, sich einem erfahrenen und kompetenten örtlichen Reiseleiter wie Elly anzuvertrauen. Er kennt Land und Leute, geht gerne auch auf Sonderwünsche ein und regelt Manches ohne viel Aufhebens im Hintergrund! Dann wird die Reise auch das, was man sich wünscht: ein unvergessliches Erlebnis in wunderbaren ursprünglichen Naturlandschaften!
