Introduction to Tanzania
(7 Days – Departs Daily on a Private Basis)
Arusha, Ngorongoro, Singita Grumeti Reserves (Serengeti)
This tour includes two of Tanzania’s best game parks and is the perfect introductory Tanzanian safari.
Begin with stay at a luxury lodge near Arusha, an area of lush mountainous landscapes, Maasai settlements and coffee plantations.
Next, visit spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, a wildlife-filled volcanic caldera that’s part of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stay at a luxury lodge perched on the crater rim, and enjoy panoramic views and exciting game drives inside the crater to spot wildlife such as the Big Five and hippos. Also visit a local village and enjoy a crater walk. If desired, Artisans of Leisure can also arrange philanthropic activities or additional touring in the area, including visits to local markets, coffee plantations or Oldupai (Olduvai) Gorge.
Continue to Singita Grumeti Reserves, a private game concession next to Serengeti National Park, and stay at one of the top luxury lodges in East Africa. The region is known for its abundant wildlife—including elephants, leopards and lions—and prime opportunities for viewing the wildebeest migration. Game drives on the private concession offer unfettered wildlife viewing without the crowds of the neighboring park. If desired, also enjoy walking safaris, sundowners in the bush and night game drives. There will also be plenty of time for spa treatments, gourmet meals, wine tasting, cooking classes, tennis, swimming, archery, stargazing, hiking to an anti-poaching outpost and visits to local villages.
