A taste of what to expect…
Day 1 | Arrival
Arusha
- Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be met by a member of the &Beyond team who will transfer you by road to Arusha. This attractive little town is situated beneath the towering peaks of Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro.
- Visit the extraordinary social enterprise, Shanga that employs people from the community with disabilities to create export quality recycled glass products.
- Go on a exciting and informative Coffee Tour, weaving in and out of the evergreen coffee trees, your coffee guide explaining how the bean is nurtured, harvested, dried and finally roasted to produce a myriad different blends that sate the taste of the most ardent of coffee connoisseurs.
Day 2 and 3
Lake Manyara National Park
&Beyond Lake Manyara Tree Lodge
- You will be transferred to Arusha Airport for your scheduled flight to the Lake Manyara Airstrip. Upon arrival, you will be met by a representative from &Beyond Lake Manyara Tree Lodge who will take you on a game drive to the lodge.
- Take the opportunity to relax after your long flight and enjoy the lodge, including the sparkling swimming pool and magnificent guest areas, or even treat yourself to a Healing Earth Wellness Treatment* in your room or in the massage sala nestled in the towering shady trees.
- After sundowners at the lake, go on an exciting game drive – the park is famous for its unusual tree-climbing lions and the elephant herds it protects.
- Spoil yourself by either waking up early for the sunrise or taking time to see the golden peach hue over a colourful sundowner cocktail at the lakeshore.
- Take a cycle or walk in the local community and experience a bit of local life.
*This activity is at an additional cost
Day 4 and 5
Ngorongoro Crater
- Enjoy a scenic drive to the Lake Manyara airstrip on the escarpment. Upon arrival, you will be met by an &Beyond representative who will drive you to your lodge of choice, either Nomad Entamanu Ngorongoro or Lemala Osonjoi Lodge (opening 2025) in the Nogorongoro Crater Conservation Area.
- The Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area is home to more than 30,000 protected animals. It is an area of spectacular beauty and excellent game viewing, a truly unique safari destination in Africa. The Ngorongoro Crater, once a gigantic volcano, is the largest intact caldera in the world. Today, long since having collapsed and eroded, it is an extensive highland area with the famous 600 m (1,968 ft) deep Ngorongoro Crater as its focal point.
- Wake up early to the views of the Crater, and after breakfast head off for a full day game drive on the Crater floor, abundant with wildlife -view black rhino that are protected within its rim, giant tusked elephant, big-maned lion stalking the grasslands, and bright pink flamingos crowding the soda lakes.
- Take a guided walk* on the rim of the Crater with your guide and relish sundowners with a sensational view.
- In the evening, appreciate sublime wine at the Winestore*, where a special tasting can be arranged.
*These activities are at an additional cost
Day 6 to 8
Serengeti National Park
- Take a game drive back to the lake Manyara Airstrip for your scheduled flight to your chosen camp or lodge in the Serengeti, either &Beyond Serengeti Under Canvas, &Beyond Klein’s Camp or &Beyond Grumeti Serengeti River Lodge.
- The Serengeti National Park, meaning “endless plains” in the local Maasai language, is undoubtedly one of the world’s most celebrated wilderness areas and is an ongoing source of inspiration to writers, filmmakers and photographers.
- Your camp manager and guide will help you plan your next few days in the Serengeti. Relish twice-daily game drives, with sunrise and sundowner stops. Or take a full day game drive and scrumptious picnic, so that you can spend the entire day out.
What to expect at our &Beyond Serengeti lodges and camps:
&Beyond Serengeti Under Canvas: Experience nature in a real and authentic manner. Roam its sprawling plains on exhilarating game drives or hop into a hot-air balloon ride* for an once-in-a-lifetime wilderness adventure. Enjoy your shower under the stars, waking up to the golden sunrise through your tent, sitting around a cosy camp fire revelling in the romance and sounds of being in the bush, and far, far away from reality.
&Beyond Grumeti Serengeti River Lodge: Take the time to enjoy the gushing river and playful hippos as well as the exceptional year round lion sightings. Alternatively take the opportunity to go to Lake Victoria and interact with the villages and local way of life*.
&Beyond Klein’s Camp: Enjoy the remote and private concession, with opportunities to go on tranquil nature walks and thrilling night drives, or visit a Maasai community and gain insight into the day to day lives of this pastoralist community*.
* These activities are at an additional cost
