The Elephant Kingdom Awaits Your adventure begins with an early pickup from your Zanzibar hotel as you head to the airport for a short scenic flight to Arusha. Upon landing, your Savannah Prideland Adventures guide will welcome you and drive you toward Tarangire National Park—an area known for its sweeping landscapes, towering baobabs, and large herds of elephants. Enjoy a full game drive in an open-roof vehicle, exploring riverbanks, grasslands, and seasonal wetlands while spotting giraffes, zebras, antelopes, lions, and an impressive variety of birdlife. After your wildlife experience, you will continue to your lodge in the Karatu area for dinner and overnight rest.

Into the Great Caldera of Wonders After breakfast, you’ll travel toward the legendary Ngorongoro Crater, often described as one of the most breathtaking wildlife havens in Africa. Spend the day descending 600 meters into this ancient volcanic caldera, where you may encounter lions, buffaloes, wildebeests, zebras, hyenas, and possibly the critically endangered black rhino. Enjoy a picnic lunch near Hippo Lake at the scenic Ngoitoktok area before continuing your afternoon wildlife viewing. In the late afternoon, you will return to your lodge in Karatu for dinner and overnight.

Cultural Dawn With the Hadza People Set off early—around 5:30 a.m.—with a packed breakfast as you head toward Lake Eyasi for a rare cultural encounter. Here, you’ll meet the Hadza, one of Tanzania’s last remaining hunter-gatherer communities. Join them on a morning hunt, learn how they track small game, gather honey, and live in harmony with the land while speaking their distinctive click-based language. After this immersive experience, your guide will transfer you to Arusha Airport for your flight back to Zanzibar, marking the end of your meaningful 3-day journey.
