Itinerary
Introduction
This safari will guide you to top spots in Tanzania, including the Serengeti, which is known for its large baobab trees and elephant herds. This park is also home to a portion of the Great Migration, which you may have a chance to see along the Mara River. The Ngorongoro Crater, also called the “Garden of Eden,” is situated in the beautiful Rift Valley and is home to thousands of animals.
A staff member from Borbo Safaris will pick you up from the airport and transfer you to the hotel in Arusha, where you’ll rest in anticipation of your adventure beginning the next day. Our driver will also drive you around Arusha on a tour if you have time.

After breakfast, you will embark on an en-route game drive to Serengeti (lunch will be eaten in the vehicle).

An evening game drive in the central Serengeti awaits, offering the chance to witness the sunset. Dinner and your overnight stay will be at the camp.
Major attractions in the Serengeti include its endless plains and the Great Migration, which involves 1.5 million herbivores and their followers. Predators move from one area to another across almost all parts of the Serengeti due to drought. Our driver-guide will ensure you witness part of this migration. You will have the opportunity to see vast numbers of wildebeest accompanied by zebras, Grant’s gazelles, Thomson’s gazelles, eland, and impala.
