This immersive experience keeps safety at the forefront with experienced guides and rangers by your side. You’ll move camp daily, transported by pick-up trucks, porters, or donkeys, ensuring mobility while keeping things lightweight.
This trekking tour takes you to the stunning Ngorongoro Crater Highlands. Here, the trail winds through some of the most breathtaking scenery on Earth. You’ll encounter wildlife like black rhinos, lions, hippos, and thousands of wildebeest and zebras. Each step offers a connection to the landscape that makes you feel part of the wild.
Next, you’ll explore Tarangire National Park, where over 3,000 elephants roam freely, along with giraffes and other iconic animals. Your adventure will continue with a walking safari near Lake Manyara National Park at Mto wa Mbu.
