Tanzania SkySafari by Elewana: Ngorongoro, Tarangire & Serengeti

After enjoying your complimentary airport lounge access, board your overnight flight out to Tanzania.

You’ll be met at the Kilimanjaro International Airport by a private driver, who’ll see you through northern Tanzania’s verdant farmlands to your boutique accommodation – a wood-framed house set on its own coffee plantation. Expect canopy beds, roaring fireplaces and rattan sofas. The all-inclusive dining is superb, with fresh, local ingredients showcased across seasonal menus. It’s all washed down with all-inclusive drinks.

Today begins with breakfast followed by a bean-to-cup tour of the coffee plantation. A private chauffeur will then see your first flight hop in your executive nine-seater plane, all leather furnishing and mahogany fittings. You’ll arrive to spectacular views over Tarangire’s wildlife-animated savannah, beginning your game drives immediately as you set out in search of lion herds and mighty elephants. You’ll be staying in a luxury baobab treehouse, enjoying spectacular views – along with all-inclusive drinks and fine dining. The next day, you’ll be treated to everything from game drives, walks and night safaris to bush sundowners and a visit to an authentic Maasai village.

After breakfast and a final game drive in Tarangire, you’ll fly on to the UNESCO-listed Ngorongoro Crater, marvelling at its giant, prehistoric reach. Here, you’ll be staying in your very own colonial-style cottage on a coffee plantation; expect claw-foot baths, terraces and all-inclusive drinks and fine dining, including the likes of high tea and evening cocktails. The next day, you’ll be brought down into the crater itself to spot everything from rare rhino and prowling hyena to giant herds of zebra.

This morning, you’ll have the option of either taking in Lake Manyara National Park’s flamingos and hippo wildlife or staying at the manor. Here, you’ll be treated cycle rides, estate tours and massage treatments, with horse riding an optional extra. You’ll then fly over the mighty Serengeti plains, arriving at your luxury tented camp, flush with campaign furnishings, wooden floors and, yes, all-inclusive sundowner drinks and fine dining. Your camp is chosen based on the current location of the great wildlife migration – a true wonder showcased on your included game drives. Expect giant herds of wildebeests stalked by cheetah, leopard and lions.

A final game drive, possibly accompanied by a game walk, will see you back to the airstrip for your last executive flight hop to Arusha. Depending on your outbound flight time, a private transfer will either bring you straight to the airport or the Arusha Coffee Lodge, where you can rest up before your overnight flight home with included access to a dayroom.

For some white-sands relaxation, we highly recommend finishing your trip on Zanzibar, with an all-inclusive, luxury stay at the boutique Elewana Kilindi. Think private plunge pools, personal butler service and a gorgeous beach.
