Dinner and overnight at your lodge, where the adventure officially begins.
Crater Floors & Northern Wilds
This morning, descend 2,000 feet into the heart of the Ngorongoro Crater—a haven for the Big Five and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Witness the diverse ecosystems on the crater floor, from open plains and acacia forest to soda lakes lined with flamingos. After lunch, travel through the Serengeti and head north to Lobo, where rocky kopjes and rolling hills shelter lions, elephants, and seasonal migration herds.

Following the Herds into Ndutu

Footprints of the Past & Shores of Tranquility
After a morning game drive around Ndutu, enjoy lunch before heading to the Olduvai Gorge, the “Cradle of Mankind.” Here, ancient fossil discoveries have traced human history back millions of years. Later, journey to Lake Manyara, where your lodge awaits nestled between the escarpment and the lake. Dinner and overnight at your lodge.
