Ultra-luxury Tanzania Lodge & Tented Safari
Per Person Sharing
10 days
Arusha Airport
This 10-day tour takes travellers through Tanzania to see some of the most sought-after sights that safari has to offer. Whether you're after the Big 5 or you want to witness one of nature's greatest spectacles – the Great Wildebeest Migration – this whirlwind African adventure has it all.
The journey is centred around Tanzania's awe-inspiring northern safari circuit. It's straight into the action on your transfer to Lake Manyara National Park after spending a night in Arusha to recover from your long-haul flight. Two nights in the park provides plenty of opportunity for sightings, as the park's eponymous lake attracts hordes of animals. Then it's off to the Ngorongoro Crater, the world's largest in-tact volcanic caldera, staying at Lemala Osonjoi Lodge in the foothills of Ngorongoro.
Finally, it's off to the most well-known of Tanzania's safari attractions: the Serengeti. Staying at a tented camp here gives you the chance to truly get in touch with nature. Plus, if you're lucky enough to get a spot when the Wildebeest Migration passes through, you'll have front-row seats to the dramatic river crossings. With plenty of additional activities, including walking safaris, bike rides through the bush and wellness treatments, this tour is great for adventurers and pursuers of pleasure alike. Plus, with child-friendly activities on offer at some of the camps, the tour can be adapted to suit families too.
Amazing hospitality, romantic, lots of fires in the fireplace that they were happy to
make, walking around the plantation, excellent massage, nice essential oils in the room, great food, wine and drinks, dinner for two, candles, monkeys, dik diks, deer. A perfect place to rest before starting the safari.
Your African adventure begins in Tanzania. After landing at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you’ll be transferred to Legendary Lodge in Arusha, your accommodation for the evening. After dinner, escape the chilly evening air in your room, lounging in leather armchairs in front of the fireplace to recharge from your long-haul flight. All that’s left is to get a good night’s sleep before your safari kicks off in earnest tomorrow.

Lake Manyara Tree Lodge (4 1/2 STAR rating) – Lots of animals (especially elephants up close) – lots of baboons (saw a troop of about 200-250 walking across an open grass area – very impressive) and saw my first leopard at about 600 yards in a tree with binoculars. Couldn't see much of him but he was there. Saw lions up close and my one and only flamingo.
Completely different experience than Chem Chem. Lake Manyara is more “jungle-like” although there are many open areas.
Staff, drivers and support personnel were all great. Room was excellent and well-appointed.
After breakfast at Legendary Lodge you’ll head off to the iconic Lake Manyara National Park. A game drive through the park will take you to Lake Manyara Tree Lodge, where you’ll spend two nights in a spacious treehouse suite with sweeping views of this unique reserve. With landscapes ranging from dense woodlands to craggy mountains and, of course, the eponymous Rift Valley soda lake, this stunning park offers spectacular game viewing in an equally awe-inspiring setting.
Aside from vast herds of safari favourites like elephant, buffalo and giraffe, you’ll spot at least a few of the more than 400 species of birds that flock to the shores of the lake. With plenty of plains game throughout the park, predators are never too far away. Keep an eye out for cheetah, leopard and the unusual tree-climbing lions Lake Manyara is famous for. When you’re not out exploring the park, you’ll have the chance to explore the surrounding forest or indulge in a massage at the spa. For something a little more active, grab a bicycle and head out to explore the lake shore.

The next leg of your trip sees you travelling north to the Ngorongoro Crater. Formed about 2.5 million years ago when an eruption caused the original volcano to collapse in on itself, crater has long been a safe haven for wildlife and there are usually about 30 000 animals roaming its floor. Your transfer will again take you on a drive through the conservation area to your accommodation for the next two nights: Lemala Osonjoi Lodge.
Located in the foothills of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the lodge offers beautiful forested views of the surrounding area. Spend a full day discovering the incredible wildlife of the Ngorongoro area on thrilling game drives and guided walks with expert guides. In between adventures, take time to unwind at the lodge's wellness area, cool off in the swimming pool, or relax on the tranquil viewing deck, fully immersing yourself in this serene wilderness.
