2 Days fly from Zanzibar to Tarangire and Ngorongoro

This carefully designed 2-day Tanzania safari offers an unforgettable wildlife experience for those with limited time but a deep desire to explore the best of the Northern Circuit. The journey begins with your arrival from Zanzibar to Arusha, the safari gateway of Tanzania, and continues into the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater—often described as the Eighth Wonder of the World. Here, you’ll descend into the massive volcanic caldera teeming with wildlife, including lions, rhinos, elephants, and hippos, all set against the stunning backdrop of the crater floor.

On Day 2, your adventure continues with an early morning game drive through Tarangire National Park, a park famed for its enormous baobab trees, large herds of elephants, and seasonal migration of wildebeest and zebra. After an exciting morning spotting predators and rare birdlife along the Tarangire River, you’ll be transferred back to Arusha for your return flight to Zanzibar, wrapping up two full days of rich wildlife encounters and breathtaking landscapes.

This short safari is perfect for travelers based in Zanzibar who wish to experience the magic of mainland Tanzania’s most iconic national parks without compromising comfort or time.

ITINERARY

Day 1: Zanzibar to Arusha – Ngorongoro Crater Game Drive

Your journey begins with a morning flight from Zanzibar to Arusha, where you will be warmly welcomed by your professional safari guide. After a brief orientation, you’ll embark on a scenic drive through the beautiful highlands of northern Tanzania en route to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Upon arrival at the crater rim, enjoy sweeping views before descending 600 meters into the Ngorongoro Crater—one of the most concentrated wildlife areas on earth.

Your half-day game drive within the crater will give you the chance to spot the Big Five, including the endangered black rhino, as well as hyenas, jackals, flamingos at Lake Magadi, and much more. You’ll stop for a picnic lunch inside the crater surrounded by nature. Later in the afternoon, ascend to the crater rim and proceed to your lodge or camp for dinner and an overnight stay, all while soaking in the wild beauty of Tanzania.
