Itinerary in detail

Every Vintage Africa trip is tailored to your personal preferences and interests. Below you’ll find a sample itinerary to inspire your own custom-designed journey.

Day 1 - Welcome to Arusha

Arrive in Arusha and transfer to Arusha Coffee Lodge, a charming retreat nestled within a working coffee plantation. Begin your journey with a guided coffee tour, learning about the cultivation and processing of one of Tanzania’s finest exports. Afterward, relax in the lodge’s serene setting, where you can unwind with a massage or take a dip in the pool. In the evening, indulge in a farm-to-table dining experience featuring fresh, seasonal ingredients.

Day 2–3: Tarangire’s Tented Luxury

Travel to Lemala Ngorongoro Camp, a luxurious tented camp perched on the crater rim. The camp offers a unique blend of rustic charm and modern comforts, with breathtaking views of the surrounding highlands.

Spend Day 3 exploring the Ngorongoro Crater, descending into this ancient volcanic caldera for a full-day safari. Your expert guide will navigate the crater’s diverse habitats, ensuring you encounter its incredible wildlife. Watch for prides of lions lazing in the grass, graceful antelope grazing along the slopes, and rhinos meandering through the plains. Enjoy a picnic lunch near the hippo pools, where you can observe these massive creatures cooling off in the water. Return to camp in the late afternoon, where you can relax by the campfire, sharing stories of the day’s sightings.

Day 4–5: Ngorongoro Highlands Camp

Fly to the Serengeti and settle into Serengeti Migration Camp or Nimali Mara Camp, both offering exceptional access to the migration routes. Spend your days on game drives that take you through the Serengeti’s diverse landscapes, from open plains to riverine forests. Witness the awe-inspiring sight of thousands of wildebeest and zebras crossing the Mara River, braving swift currents and crocodile-filled waters. Your guide will also introduce you to the Serengeti’s rich ecosystem, pointing out smaller animals, unique plants, and cultural landmarks.

Between game drives, enjoy leisurely afternoons at camp, where you can soak in the natural beauty of your surroundings. Opt for a walking safari to experience the Serengeti’s wonders from a new perspective. Evenings are magical, with gourmet bush dinners and the sounds of wildlife echoing through the night.

Day 6–7: Serengeti’s Namiri Plains

Fly to Namiri Plains in the eastern Serengeti, a remote area known for its exceptional predator sightings. Your luxury tented camp offers uninterrupted views of the plains and access to prime game-viewing areas. Spend your days tracking cheetahs, lions, and leopards on game drives. Between activities, relax in your elegantly appointed tent or enjoy a refreshing dip in the pool. A hot air balloon safari over the Serengeti (optional) provides a once-in-a-lifetime perspective, followed by a champagne breakfast in the bush.

Day 8–9: Exclusive Serengeti Luxury

Transfer to Singita Sasakwa, one of Tanzania’s most luxurious lodges, set in the exclusive Grumeti Reserve. Over the next two days, experience unparalleled wildlife encounters, from observing the Great Migration (seasonal) to spotting rare black-and-white colobus monkeys. Participate in a guided photographic safari to capture the Serengeti’s beauty or indulge in a private wine tasting from Singita’s renowned cellar. Evenings are spent enjoying five-star dining and watching the sunset from your private veranda.

Fly back from the Serengeti with unforgettable memories of Tanzania’s rich wildlife and stunning landscapes.
