2-days Flying safari from Zanzibar itinerary
Day 1: Fly from Zanzibar to Arusha airport then Tarangire.
Start your 2-day Tanzania safari from Zanzibar with a pick-up from the hotel (included) and drive to Zanzibar Airport. Arrive at Arusha airport in the morning, around 9 am. After being familiar with your safari guide, start a drive to Tarangire National Park and proceed with a full-day game drive.
The park covers an area of 2,600 square kilometers, and the park’s animal concentration during the dry season can rival that of the famous Serengeti. Among the predators in this park are lions, cheetahs, and leopards. These animals share watering holes with various bird species, including green wood hoopoes, fisher lovebirds, tall herons, white-bellied go-away birds, and giant kingfishers.
Tarangire is renowned for its baobab trees and picturesque views of expansive savannahs and acacia woodlands. The peculiar, ancient baobab trees are considered by the Maasai people to be the first trees on earth.
What else could be more exciting than visiting the home of elephants and baobab trees? Explore the wildlife and nature till evening when you will head to Farm Of Dreams for dinner and your overnight stay.
Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater full-day game drive
After an early breakfast, drive to Ngorongoro and descend into the Crater on a journey to find the black rhino.
Referred to as the eighth natural wonder of the world, the Ngorongoro Crater stands as the largest intact caldera globally formed approximately 2 million years ago when the Ngorongoro volcano erupted and its walls collapsed.
Currently boasting a width of over 19 kilometers, the Ngorongoro Crater features diverse landscapes, including expansive acacia forests, swamps teeming with hippos, and vast open grasslands.
Animals found are elephants, warthogs, flamingos, a spectacular array of bird species, the elusive black rhinoceros, and all the apex predators.
Additionally, the Maasai people can often be observed tending to their cattle, peacefully coexisting with buffalo and wildebeest in this remarkable natural sanctuary.
In the afternoon, you will stop for lunch with the Hippo Lake view and then enjoy another game drive as you ascend back up to the crater.
Drive back to Arusha Airport for your evening flight back to Zanzibar marking the end of your 2 days safari from Zanzibar to Tarangire and Ngorongoro.
