Itinerary (Day by Day)

  • Day 1: Tarangire National Park- Game drive
  • Today our safari adventure begins! You'll be picked up from the airport or place of stay in Arusha and drive for 2 hours to Tarangire National Park. The park is well known for its large elephant herds and abundance of ancient baobab trees (the largest trees on the continent). From the open roof of the vehicle, we will experience the seasonal swamps, savanna, and Tarangire River, which is full of wildlife ranging from a large variety of birds to giraffes, impalas, zebras, lions, leopards, elands, warthogs, and elephants. The picnic site has a spectacular view. We will have our picnic lunch there and proceed with game viewing. Afterward, we'll continue to our lodge, where we will be able to relax, enjoy dinner, and have an overnight stay.

  • Day 2: Transfer to Serengeti National Park- Afternoon Game Drive
  • After breakfast, we will depart for Serengeti. A long and bumpy road will take you about 4-5 hours of fascinating game en route, driving up the crater highlands towards the vast plains of Serengeti. We will stop for a picnic lunch before we check into the park for an afternoon drive. After catching the sunset, we will proceed to the lodge for dinner and our overnight rest.

  • Day 3: Explore the Vast Savannah Plains of Serengeti
  • Today we will spend the whole day in the park. We'll head out and start to explore at sunrise. You will have a full-day game drive exploring the beautiful scenery of Serengeti, searching for the Big Five. We will then return to the campsite for a hot lunch and then head out for an afternoon game drive. There is more to Serengeti than large mammals, more than 500 bird species are recorded, ranging from the oversized ostrich and bizarre secretary bird of the open grassland to the black eagles that soar effortlessly above the savannah. We will continue to search for Serengeti wildlife and return to camp at sunset for dinner and our overnight stay.

  • Today we will wake up very early in the morning (around 6:00 a.m.) for a sunrise game drive, to spot the animals when they are most active. We will then stop at a picnic site to enjoy breakfast in the bush and continue with the game drive before returning to the camp (around noon) for hot lunch. Afterward, load the vehicle, depart camp, and continue to Ngorongoro where we will have dinner and an overnight stay at our booked accommodation for the night.

  • Today we will have an early breakfast and descend to the crater immediately. This stunning place will offer you almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa including the rare black rhino and if we are lucky we might spot one. You will choose whether to have a picnic lunch at the Hippo Lake or a hot lunch at the camp. We will then head back to Arusha for a night or continue to the airport and check in for our evening flight into Uganda.

  • Day 6: Into the Impenetrable Bwindi Forest
  • After your breakfast, you will be picked up by your safari guide/driver to begin your journey to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Enjoy a brief stop at the Uganda Equator en route for a cup of coffee and a chance to look through the many craft markets for a few souvenirs or gifts for friends and family. This is followed by yet another stop, in Mbarara town for lunch. Continue to Bwindi Impenetrable where you will check into your booked safari lodge for dinner and your overnight stay on arrival.

    Buhoma Lodge

    Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

  • Day 7: Gorilla Tracking – Batwa Pygmy Cultural Encounter
  • After the briefing, we'll venture into Bwindi Forest on foot and enter a world suspended outside of time! The undergrowth thrives with diverse plants, mammals, and birds. It's a grueling task to press on through walls of vines and vegetation as your heart pumps from effort and anticipation. It may be minutes or hours before we come upon a gorilla family but when we finally do, the encounter sweeps us into a timeless moment. We watch the juveniles play as the impressive adults groom and keep a sly but watchful eye on their human visitors. In this moment, a feeling of kinship rises to close the gap that grew between us and our primate relatives over millennia. We descend elated and arrested in a timeless moment to be told and retold for years to come. Return to the lodge to catch your breath before your next hard adventure with the Batwa also known as the pygmies that originated from the Ituri forest of Congo.

  • Check out of the safari lodge after breakfast and exit Bwindi Impenetrable to begin your journey to Entebbe where you will be dropped off at the airport. With lunch en route, we'll cross the equator into the northern hemisphere. You'll feel the distance of the impenetrable forest, the memory lingers close by accompanying you as you journey homeward bound.
