Today you begin your journey by boarding your international outbound flight to Arusha.
Land into Kilimanjaro International Airport this evening. Upon arrival you'll disembark crossing the tarmac. Once through customs you'll continue to the singular baggage carousel to collect your luggage and meet your transfer driver who will be waiting just outside the singular exit door. You'll continue to your accommodation in Arusha for the night.
After breakfast this morning you will start your journey to Lake Manyara National Park, a small but very beautiful park. The flamingos on the lake are a classic East African sight, and the other wildlife here includes buffalo, zebra and if you're lucky, you may see a ...

Today you will depart from the Ngorongoro Crater for the Serengeti National Park, passing Maasai bomas on the way, and driving through the Naabi gate into the park.

Today is your first full day on safari and you will enjoy morning and afternoon game drives. The wildlife in the Serengeti is some of the best in East Africa so be sure to tell your guide if there is something you are particularly interested in seeing today and he'll explore the region with your wildlife goals in mind!
