Your adventure begins the moment you land at Kilimanjaro International Airport. You will be warmly welcomed by a professional Chipmunk Expeditions driver-guide who will brief you on the journey ahead. After a short introduction, you will begin your scenic drive toward Tarangire National Park—a sanctuary famous for its massive elephant herds, towering baobab trees, and diverse wildlife that includes lions, zebras, giraffes, and countless bird species.

Upon entering the park, the adventure comes alive as your afternoon game drive unfolds across rolling savannah and river landscapes. With your private guide, you will explore hidden corners, observe animals in their natural environment, and enjoy the dramatic contrasts that make Tarangire unique.

After the game drive, continue to Karatu, a peaceful highland town near Ngorongoro. Settle in at Eileen’s Tree Inn, where comfort, hospitality, and a delicious dinner await you.

Today is one of the major highlights of your journey. After breakfast, you’ll drive toward the legendary Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa’s most breathtaking wildlife destinations.

You will descend 600 meters into the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera—a natural sanctuary home to nearly every species of East African wildlife, including the Big Five. The crater offers a high chance of spotting the endangered black rhinoceros, along with prides of lions, immense buffalo herds, and graceful flamingos decorating the crater lakes.

Your guide will lead you through rich grasslands, forests, and swamps as you witness the incredible harmony of wildlife within this natural wonder.

After a rewarding day, you’ll drive back to Arusha Airport for your domestic flight to Zanzibar. Upon arrival, you’ll be met by our representative and transferred to Fun Beach Resort, where you can unwind to the soothing sound of ocean waves.
