Detailed Itinerary

Day 1: Arusha to Serengeti – Into the Wild

We’ll pick you up early from your Arusha hotel or Kilimanjaro Airport and hit the road (or transfer you to your bush flight, if flying of course depending on your budget). The journey itself is a transition—from cities and schedules to something older, simpler, and real.

By mid-day, you’re already in the Serengeti, after driving past the scenic and un-ignorable Ngorongoro crater. Lions on kopjes, elephants brushing past the acacias, giraffes lousing in the acacias, and that unmistakable feeling of I’m here. After your first game drive, settle in for a night under stars that stretch forever.

Overnight Options (Central Serengeti):

  • Budget: Nyani Campsite
  • Standard: Serengeti Kati Kati Tented Camp
  • Luxury: Melia Serengeti or Four Seasons Safari Lodge

Day 2: Full Day Game Drive – Let the Land Lead

Sunrise coffee, dust on your boots, and the sound of wildebeest echoing across the plains. Today, you spend every moment in the bush—tracking predators, watching herds move like rivers, and maybe catching a cheetah at full sprint.

Your Serengeti Lion Safaris guide is your storyteller and tracker, shaping the day to your interests and the rhythm of the land. You’ll stop for a picnic in the wild and drive until golden light bathes the savannah.

Overnight:

  • Budget: Nyani Campsite
  • Standard: Serengeti Kati Kati Tented Camp
  • Luxury: Melia Serengeti or Four Seasons Safari Lodge

Day 3: One Last Look – Return to Arusha

One last morning drive gives you a final chapter—maybe a leopard in the trees or hyenas finishing their night patrol. Then, it’s time to fly or drive back to Arusha, hearts full, camera bursting, and the dust of Africa still on your shoes.

Drive through the scenic Ngorongoro and meet many wild encounters en-route. You finally arrive at Arusha in the early evening before you are dropped off at your Arusha accommodation.
