TANZANIA WILDLIFE SAFARI

Itinerary:

Day 1: Arrive at the Kilimanjaro airport in Moshi, Tanzania. Transportation is provided to our hotel in Moshi. Parkview Hotel, Moshi. (No Meals)

Note: Day 1 is the first “official” day of this trip. The main international flight into Kilimanjaro on KLM arrives in the evening. If you have the time, we recommend flying in a day early, allowing you a day in town to recuperate from the long flight, and a day of cushion to deal with any luggage problems. If you choose to arrive a day early, we can arrange an extra night lodging and airport transportation. In this case, you would want to arrive the day BEFORE the official start date of the trip.

Days 2-7: After breakfast, we begin our 6 day, 5 night safari. The specific itinerary is determined by the season, animal migrations and other natural factors. Please contact us to get details on the safari itinerary for each of our departure dates. Our safari will include visits to some Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, Lake Manyara and other wildlife parks in Northern Tanzania. The sheer volume of animals is indescribable. We’ll view resident lion prides, cheetah, hyena, elephant, baboons, zebra, giraffe, hippos, crocodiles, and a wide variety of hooved mammals and have a high probability of spotting all of the Big 5…not to mention hundreds of species of birds. Raw, unbounded and unmitigated life surrounds us everywhere we go. Lodging varies by itinerary and season and is typically a combination of Northwest Voyageurs Luxury Safari Camps and Luxury Safari Lodges. B, L, D

Day 8: A morning cultural tour of a traditional Masaai Boma offers us the chance to meet and interact with the Masaai tribe. This pastoral tribe moves their herds seasonally with the movement of water, and they live amidst all the wildlife we’ve been viewing the last week on safari. After our tour, we’ll begin our trip back to the Kilimanjaro Airport. We stop en route to eat lunch and do a little shopping, and arrive at the Kia Lodge near the airport in the afternoon. Day rooms are arranged at the lodge to take a shower and rest before your flight departs in the evening. You should arrive back home on Day 9. If you wish to extend your stay, we can arrange accommodations in Arusha or Moshi, in lieu of day room. (Meals: B, L)
