Itinerary – Day by Day

Day 1: Arrival in Arusha

Arrive at Arusha, Tanzania’s safari gateway city nestled beneath Mount Meru. Your local driver-guide meets you at the airport, transfers you to your centrally located hotel, and kicks off with a welcome briefing on your 7 Days Tanzania Great Migration Tour. You’ll enjoy a panoramic city walk, explore the vibrant markets and cultural village scene, and have time to rest ahead of your safari. Evening dinner introduces Tanzanian cuisine and sets the tone for your migration safari adventure.

Day 2: Arusha → Lake Manyara National Park

Depart early for Lake Manyara National Park, a lush forest-fringed park famous for tree-climbing lions and huge flocks of birds. After checking into your lodge/camp, embark on an afternoon game drive through forests, along the Rift Valley wall and beside soda lakes shimmering with flamingos. The guide explains how this ecosystem differs from the plains you’ll soon visit and readies you for migration-zone perspectives. Overnight at lodge with sunset views over the Rift.

Day 3: Lake Manyara → Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, set off across the escarpment to the legendary Serengeti National Park. Arrive in time for an afternoon game drive where the first signs of the migratory herds may appear. Vast rolling plains unfold—zebra, wildebeest, gazelles—and the horizon beckons. Your driver-guide navigates to a well-positioned budget-friendly camp or lodge, optimizing for game-drive proximity and migration viewing opportunities.

Day 4: Full Day Serengeti — Great Migration Focus

Today is dedicated to experiencing the Great Migration. Rise early, set out across the plains, and with your expert guide target zones where crossings, predator-prey dynamics and sheer herd volumes create unforgettable wildlife moments. Picnic under acacia trees, capture the golden mid-morning light, then afternoon game time and sunset drives. Our 7 day Tanzania safari package ensures you’re in migration territory at the right time, with flexibility to follow herd movement.

Day 5: Serengeti Continued — Migration & Hidden Corners

Stay within the Serengeti for another full day of migration-tracking and lesser-visited sectors. Venture to river crossings, kopjes where lions lounge, and vantage points where the herd flows like a living river. Enjoy local-guide commentary on migration rhythms, ecology, and seasonal patterns. Rest at camp with story-time around a fire, lodge meals and star-filled skies—an authentic safari feel without luxury pricing.

Day 6: Serengeti → Ngorongoro Crater

Depart Serengeti after an early morning game drive and drive to the Ngorongoro Crater via picturesque routes. Arrive at the crater rim lodge, check-in, and then descend into the crater floor for an afternoon game drive across grasslands, forest patches and the soda lake at its centre. Big Five sightings (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, black rhino) possible. Stay overnight on the rim for sunrise crater views.

Day 7: Ngorongoro Crater Morning Drive & Departure

Rise early for one last crater‐descent game drive in Ngorongoro—crimson‐toned morning light, hippos in the lake, predators on ridge lines. After brunch you ascend out of the crater and head back to Arusha for a farewell lunch. Transfer to airport for your flight out or extend your journey. Our 7 Days Tanzania Great Migration Tour ends with glowing memories—migration spectacle, diverse ecosystems and expert local guiding.
