Zanzibar-Tarangire National Park
Day 1Zanzibar-Tarangire National Park Zanzibar-Tarangire National Park Today, you will have a morning flight from Zanzibar to Arusha. On arrival in Arusha, you will be met and driven to Tarangire National Park. Enjoy the wildlife and your overnight stay at Octagon Lodge Lunch and dinner are provided. Drinking water will also be provided every day per person. Tarangire National Park is almost 3000sq km in size and is probably best known for its huge numbers of elephants and baobab trees. The name of the park comes from the Tarangire River which crosses through the park. Tarangire is especially spectacular during the dry season (June - November), as wildlife concentrations rival that of the Serengeti. Enormous populations of elephants and other animals are drawn to the Tarangire River as their only source of water. With its varied habitats and permanent water in the Tarangire River, the park is home to over 2000 elephants and 500 bird species.

Ngorongoro Crater-Zanzibar
Day 2Ngorongoro Crater-Zanzibar Ngorongoro Crater-Zanzibar After breakfast, descend into the crater for a crater game tour. Later on, you will drive to Arusha and proceed to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your flight back to Zanzibar. Breakfast and lunch are provided. Drinking water will also be provided every day per person. Often called the eighth Natural Wonder of the World, the Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact crater in the world. About 2 million years ago, the Ngorongoro volcano erupted, and its walls collapsed. The volcano floor sank to create a natural enclosure with its 600m tall walls. Now, at over 19km wide, Ngorongoro Crater is filled with great areas of acacia forest, hippo filled swamps and open grasslands. These different habitats contain over 30,000 animals—including elephants, warthogs, flamingoes, magnificent birdlife, the rare black rhinoceros and all the predatory cats. The Maasai can also be seen grazing their cattle alongside the buffalo and wildebeest.
