Introduction
This tour will give you the opportunity to spot all of the Big Five. In our pursuit of lions, leopards, elephants, rhinoceros, hippos, and Cape buffalos, you visit all four Northern circuit national parks, including the majestic Serengeti, where you will be able to witness your very own Serengeti sunrise. Along the way, you will spot hyenas, cheetahs, giraffes, enormous herds of wildebeests, zebras, and much more
Drive through the “land of giants”, Tarangire National Park. Drive across the endless golden savannah that grazes along the Tarangire River. This national park is known for its elephants and sprawling baobab trees. Enjoy a picnic lunch at the picnic site and take in the remarkable view of the Tarangire River. Keep a close eye on your lunch, as the monkeys won’t hesitate to get away with a tasteful treat if given the chance.
The action-packed game drive will end late in the evening. You will now head towards your choice of accommodation, where a freshly prepared dinner awaits. Ensure you get some good rest and recharge yourself for another eventful day.

We depart early after breakfast, head across the Great Rift Valley floor, up the escarpment, and traverse the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Enjoy the pleasant and scenic drive as you experience the beautiful scenery and breathtaking vistas on your way to the Serengeti.
Arrive in the Serengeti for an afternoon game drive until late. Lunch is taken at one of the picnic sites, most likely at the Naabi Hill Gate, where you can stretch your legs.
Visit the famous Maasai bomas to get close to the Maasai community. Participate in traditional Maasai dance and walk in the Maasai village. Their culture is well known for hunting lions, and to be considered a warrior, they drink raw cow blood (though these traditions are things of the past, except for drinking blood). You can also do some souvenir shopping at the local Maasai market.

An early breakfast will lift your mood, and a sunrise game drive through the Serengeti plains will provide the best opportunity to see lions, leopards, and other predators in action. The sunrise in the Serengeti is breathtaking, with the rising sun appearing to set the plains on fire. We explore the infinite Serengeti grasslands after lunch at the picnic site. After that, we will set out for Ngorongoro to your choice of accommodation, where a freshly prepared dinner awaits you. Ensure you get some good rest and recharge yourself for another eventful day.

Experience a one-of-a-kind drive inside an ancient volcano packed with incredible wildlife and right in the heart of the action. After an early breakfast, we will start our much-anticipated trip to Ngorongoro Crater.
The earlier you descend to the crater floor, the higher your chances of spotting rare species like black rhinos. Spend the majority of the morning visiting the Ngorongoro Crater. With its 600-to 650-meter-high walls, it resembles a natural zoo and has the highest concentration of wild animals.
Following your picnic lunch, most likely at the designated picnic place beside the hippo pool, you will drive up the crater rim and out of the conservation area.

Since it’s a birding destination, you will not only be amazed but also surprised by large flocks of flamingos and many other varieties of birds.

EXCELLENT Based on 4 reviews Posted on Lianne DijkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an amazing safari experience with Borbo Safaris. From the very beginning, Rebeca and Emanuel welcomed me like part of their family I really felt safe and comfortable! Emanuel was honest and clear about what to expect during the safari, which I really appreciated. Communication was open and straightforward, making everything easy and clear. During the safari, I saw all of the Big Five and many other incredible animals, surrounded by stunning landscapes. I joined a group safari and spent the days with a lovely group of people. As a solo traveler, it was a great way to meet others. The guide was fantastic, always listening to our interests and making sure we saw as much as possible. He worked hard to give everyone the best experience. In short, it was an unforgettable adventure. I highly recommend Borbo Safaris to anyone who wants a genuine, caring, and amazing safari experience.Posted on Emanuel JulianTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
