Duration
10 Days
Prices From:
AU$ 18,169

DELUXE | SMALL GROUP: The one and only Tanzania Sky Safari by Elewana includes all of Northern Tanzania’s core highlights and offers an unparalleled game viewing and cultural experience as you fly to and from each stop.


Take to the air on this 8-day African safari adventure. See Tanzania’s most famous wildlife hot spots, including Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and SerengetiNational Park.

After a night at Arusha Coffee Lodge, perk up for your journey to Tarangire with a coffee tour on a nearby plantation. The Park is home to more than 550 species of birds and your luxurious accommodation, set amid thousand-year old branches at Tarangire Treetops, gives you a chance to see them up close. Spend your days enjoying game drives, a visit to a Masai village and a game walk.

The world’s largest open, inactive volcanic crater, Ngorongoro is one of Africa’s finest wildlife conservation areas and home to over 25,000 large animals including lions, zebra wildebeest and gazelles. It is also one of your best opportunities to see black rhinos, the rarest of the Big 5.

Spend an extra day at Ngorongoro, or visit Lake Manyara National Park. Ernest Hemmingway called Manyara the ‘loveliest lake in Africa’ (sorry Victoria!). The area is famed for its baboons, and is an excellent spot to see hippos, giraffes, elephants and tree climbing lions.

Serengeti National Park is the crown jewel of Tanzania’s safari offerings, famous for its annual migration of wildebeest and zebra. Other animals include the Big 5 (more then 3,000 lions and 1,000 leopards call the Serengeti home), cheetahs, hyenas, baboon, African wild dogs and giraffes. Bird watchers should also keep their eyes peeled for over 500 species that inhabit the plains.

Day 2

Arusha to Tarangire

Following your leisurely breakfast at Arusha Coffee Lodge, you transfer to Arusha Airport for the SkySafari flight to Tarangire National Park. You have a full day of game viewing in the park with a private picnic lunch served in the bush. Late afternoon arrival at the camp for sundowners and a traditional Maasai boma dinner in the camp.

Tarangire is the unexpected awesome, the connoisseur's choice. More than 3,000 elephants - one of the largest populations in East Africa - reside here while the swamps host 550 species of bird. During the dry season, the perennial Tarangire River becomes the sole water source for a marvelous menagerie: all you need to do is sit on its banks and let the wildlife come to you.

That said, the diversity of this ecosystem ensures wildlife viewing is exceptional year-round. And it begins as soon as you touch down at Tarangire's airstrip - the onward journey to your lodge, via bulbous baobabs and grassy plains, is a game drive, not a transfer. By the time you reach Treetops, you'll already have spotted a host of species.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area

After an early breakfast this morning, depart Ngorongoro conservation Area and head down into the crater for a full day of exploration of the Ngorongoro Crater.

Ngorongoro to Serengeti

After breakfast, you will be transferred to Manyara Airstrip for your onward flight to Serengeti. Enjoy a game drive enroute to camp. After a delicious lunch at your camp, venture out on your afternoon game drive before returning to camp for dinner.

It's hard to sum up the epic Serengeti. At 14,763 sq. km, its scale is too great. And while you can revel in the bigger picture, it's also the place to embrace the individual moments: the will-they-won't-they tension of a lion pack on the hunt; the shock of a crocodile bursting from the river; the white-knuckle charge of an angry bull elephant; the dazzle of the sun subsiding into plains with no end.
