Itineraries For Tanzania

Ultra-Luxe

8 NIGHTS / 9 DAYS • FROM US$ 12,000 PER PERSON

DAYS 1 & 2. NGORONGORO CRATER

Upon your arrival at Manyara via air, you will be transferred to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is perched on the brink of an ancient volcanic caldera, offering boundless views of the crater beneath. The lodge organizes guided day excursions to the caldera’s floor, home to the highest concentration of large mammals in Africa, where lions and hyenas dominate as the apex predators.

The lodge’s remarkable architecture, often characterized as a fusion of Maasai and Versailles influences, draws inspiration from the traditional Maasai manyatta (huts). Its whimsical interiors, adorned with antiques and the splendor of an opulent baroque chateau, weave together an atmosphere of romance and luxury.

DAYS 3, 4 & 5. FARU FARU, SERENGETI

Nestled within the private Grumeti Reserve, Singita Faru Faru Lodge is perched on a gentle slope offering expansive views of the Serengeti’s rugged landscapes, a backdrop to the famed migratory route. The lodge’s design blends an informal, contemporary style with the whimsical practicality reminiscent of a botanist’s camp, resulting in an array of delightful surprises. Its glass-fronted, air-conditioned suites afford guests an exceptional vantage point to observe the rich wildlife diversity.

Explorations via day and night game drives—and on foot—might unveil a spectacle of wildlife including cheetahs, wildebeests, bat-eared foxes, black rhinos, hyenas, Maasai giraffes, lions, leopards, zebras, and the elusive Colobus monkey.

DAYS 6, 7 & 8. SAYARI, SERENGETI

Located in the Serengeti’s secluded northern reaches, within a predominantly exclusive zone, Sayari Camp boasts expansive views over the Mara River. This location serves as the backdrop for one of the most thrilling episodes of the annual wildebeest and zebra migration, where enormous crocodiles await their chance to prey on the traversing herds, while lions, hyenas, and even leopards linger by the riverbanks for an effortless feast.

The camp features hillside tented suites erected on elevated platforms, designed to merge seamlessly with the surrounding wilderness. These accommodations offer a minimalist luxury and a relaxed ambiance, providing a stark contrast to the area’s privileged proximity to river crossings and the abundant local wildlife that inhabits the region outside of the migration period.

RECOMMENDED EXTENSION: EAST AFRICA’S BEACHES

East Africa’s beaches epitomize tropical paradise with their untouched, serene shorelines and the warm, crystal-clear, azure seas. The experience of soft, fine sands underfoot and vibrant reefs teeming with aquatic life invites you to indulge in diving or snorkeling. These refined “barefoot” luxury retreats found within the Zanzibar and Seychelles archipelagos offer abundant life, both in the water and on land, providing the perfect setting to relax, rejuvenate, and recover.

From the idyllic beach bandas of Mnemba Island, Matemwe, and Ras Kutani along the mainland’s pristine beaches to the unparalleled luxury of North Island in the Seychelles, allow our seasoned island specialists to craft your ideal getaway.

DAYS 1 & 2. GIBB’S FARM

Situated in the stunning Ngorongoro Highlands, Gibb’s Farm captures the essence of a 1920s coffee farm, now transformed into a luxury country inn. Each cottage offers breathtaking views over well-tended gardens and into the valley below, while the interiors feature rich eucalyptus flooring and beams derived from the original farmhouse. The decor is complemented by hand-carved furniture, offering guests an authentic and serene retreat.

The Ngorongoro Crater, one of Tanzania’s iconic natural wonders, is celebrated for its picturesque landscapes and abundant wildlife. The crater is home to resident zebra, buffalo, and various herbivores, which form the prey base for the region’s apex predators, including lions and hyenas. During your full day in this majestic setting, embark on a morning game drive to explore the crater floor extensively, followed by a return to the lodge for an indulgent dinner.

DAYS 3, 4 & 5. SERENGETI SAFARI CAMP, SERENGETI

The journey continues at Serengeti Safari Camp, an iconic mobile camp known for tracking the migration. The camp offers a blend of effortless comfort and adventure; its walk-in tents are generously sized, equipped with full-sized beds, a dressing area, eco-friendly flush toilets, and safari bucket showers. For communal gatherings, the camp features a shaded dining tent, complete with comfortable couches, an extensive bar, a library, and a cozy fire for the cooler evenings.

During game drives, guests can explore the Serengeti’s expansive plains, encountering lions, cheetahs, and other predators amidst the wildebeest migration. The drives offer up-close experiences with zebra and gazelle herds and, depending on the season, the chance to witness mass birthing events or the dramatic river crossings at the Mara.

DAYS 6, 7 & 8. NOMAD LAMAI, SERENGETI

Nestled among the Kogakurla kopjes in the northwest of the Serengeti, Nomad Lamai lies a mere stone’s throw from the Mara River, positioning it as an ideal spot for observing the dramatic river crossings. Often overlooked once the migration has passed, the area remains a hotspot for extraordinary wildlife throughout the year. This includes prides of lions, buffalo herds, elephants, leopards, cheetahs, and an impressive array of over 300 bird species.

The camp itself is masterfully designed to blend into the rocky landscape, creating a seamless integration with nature through a combination of light canvas and plaster. Each of the beautifully designed open-fronted tented rooms offers expansive views of the Serengeti wilderness, enhancing the immersive safari experience.

RECOMMENDED EXTENSION: GREAT APES

Consult with our specialists and embark on a journey to Rwanda, known as the “Land of a Thousand Hills”. Discover the scenic Virunga Mountains, a sanctuary for the endangered mountain gorillas, the largest of the great apes. Schedule two treks to closely observe the gorillas, under the guidance of knowledgeable guides who will share insights into the lives of these vegetarian, gentle behemoths.

In Uganda, witness both chimpanzees and gorillas in their natural habitat, and make a visit to Murchison Falls along the White Nile River. As Winston Churchill famously remarked, “For magnificence, for variety of form and colour, for profusion of brilliant life – plant, bird, insect, reptile, beast – Uganda surpasses all my previous experiences and memories.”

DAYS 6, 7 & 8. NAMIRI PLAINS, SERENGETI
