OVERVIEW
Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro
Crater & Maasai Village
The Wilderness & Culture
Experience
Our
Wilderness and Culture Experience is a combination of conventional activities
that one expects to do when in Africa and connecting with the native people.
Tarangire National Park is home to a large population of elephant herds and
colossal baobab trees are scattered across the plains of the savannah.
We
will proceed to the Maasai Steppe – a landscape that encompasses a vast range
of woodlands and magnificent peaks. It is located between Arusha and Tarangire
National Park and it is home to the infamous Maasai tribe. We will stop at one
of the Maasai villages where we will have the opportunity to marvel at the
colourful garments of the locals and discover their ancient traditions. We will
also get an insight of their habitual duties and roles. Our descent into the
Ngorongoro Crater, which has been awarded the title “Africa’s Garden of Eden”,
is another highlight on the fixture. This magnificent scenery is paired with an
abundance of species making it the ideal spot for a game drive.

ITINERARY
Day One: Moshi to
Tarangire National Park
We
leave Moshi early in the morning and proceed to Tarangire National Park, where
we will encounter the massive termite mounds and countless baobab trees. The
picturesque scenery, the large elephant population and the diverse species of
birds – make Tarangire the perfect sanctuary for tranquillity. Tarangire’s
wildlife includes elephants, lions, giraffe, warthogs, ostriches, impalas,
cheetah, mongoose, buffaloes, and baboons. After the game drive we will depart
to the Ngorongoro Crater rim campsite and witness the spectacular sunset.
Day Two: Ngorongoro Crater to
Maasai Steppe
We
will have a timely start to the day to ensure that we arrive at the Ngorongoro
Crater promptly – it is beneficial to leave early as it is a good time to spot
animals. We will enjoy a magnificent game drive with a picnic lunch inside the
Crater. Migration in and out of the crater is infrequent due to its elevated
structure which means there is a high chance of spotting every member of ‘The
Big 5’.
This
powerful group comprises of buffalo, lions, elephants, rhinos, lions and
leopards. Nearly three million years ago a colossal volcano exploded and the
crater was moulded into the spectacular shape we witness today. You can also
expect to encounter zebra, hippo, wildebeest and hyena roaming around the
caldera.
Flamingos
and geese can be found lounging around the Soda Lake, other birds include
storks and vultures. You will be astonished by your guide’s ability to locate
hidden animals. We will drive back to the Fanaka campsite where comprehensive
camping facilities are available.
Day Three: Maasai Steppe to
Moshi
We
will travel to the Maasai Steppe for the final element of your journey. You
will share a cultural experience with the most renowned tribe in East Africa –
the Maasai. The Maasai are highly fascinating due to the fact that they have
preserved their culture and still uphold the values of their ancestors.
We will have a chance to witness a ritual
performance that includes singing and dancing. After an exhilarating day spent
with the Maasai tribe we will drive back to Moshi. Transportation to the
airport can be arranged on request.
