Itinerary

  • Morning: Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be greeted by your private guide and transferred to a local airstrip for a scenic flight to Serengeti National Park. As you fly over the vast savannah, you’ll get a bird’s eye view of the plains, dotted with herds of wildebeest, zebras, and other iconic wildlife. Once you land, your Magical adventure officially begins with a private game drive en route to your lodge or luxury tented camp.
  • Afternoon: After checking into your accommodations, enjoy a leisurely lunch while taking in the spectacular views of the Serengeti. In the afternoon, head out on your first game drive, where you’ll explore the park’s rich wildlife, including elephants, giraffes, lions, and cheetahs. Your expert guide will provide fascinating insights into the behavior of the animals and the ecosystem of the Serengeti.
  • Evening: Return to your lodge as the sun sets over the Serengeti plains. Enjoy a romantic dinner under the stars, with the sounds of the African bush creating a magical atmosphere. Your accommodation will offer luxurious touches to enhance your honeymoon experience, such as a candlelit dinner or a private sundowner. End the day by relaxing by the campfire, soaking in the serenity of the African wilderness.
  • Morning: Begin your day with an unforgettable hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti at dawn. As you ascend into the sky, you’ll witness the golden light of sunrise illuminating the vast landscapes below. From the air, you can spot wildlife such as giraffes, elephants, and hippos as they roam the plains, rivers, and woodlands. The serene silence of the balloon ride, combined with the breathtaking scenery, creates a truly romantic and awe-inspiring experience.
  • Afternoon: After your balloon safari, land for a luxurious champagne breakfast in the middle of the Serengeti, surrounded by nature. Following breakfast, continue your adventure with a full-day game drive. This day is dedicated to exploring different regions of the Serengeti, including areas rich in predators like lions, leopards, and hyenas. Your guide will take you to prime wildlife-viewing locations, including watering holes and riverbanks where animals gather.
  • Evening: As the day draws to a close, head back to your lodge for a romantic evening. Enjoy a private dinner and toast to an extraordinary day filled with wildlife sightings and unforgettable moments. If you're staying in a luxury tented camp, you may even hear the sounds of nearby animals as you drift off to sleep.
  • Morning: After an early breakfast, embark on a morning game drive to capture the last glimpses of Serengeti’s wildlife before heading to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Your guide will choose routes that maximize your chances of spotting any animals you may have missed on previous days, such as cheetahs or rhinos. Along the way, you’ll also learn about the Serengeti’s fascinating ecosystem and the Great Migration.
  • Afternoon: Arrive at Ngorongoro and check in to your accommodation perched on the crater’s rim, offering sweeping views of this geological marvel. After lunch, enjoy a leisurely afternoon, perhaps taking a guided walk around the crater rim with a local Maasai guide, learning about the area’s rich history and culture.
  • Evening: As evening falls, unwind with a romantic sundowner on the crater’s edge, where you can watch the sunset over one of the most iconic landscapes in Africa. Dinner will be served in a cozy, intimate setting, perfect for reflecting on the adventures of the past days.
  • Morning: Wake up early for a descent into Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site often referred to as the "Eighth Wonder of the World." The crater is home to an incredible diversity of wildlife, including the Big Five: lions, elephants, leopards, buffaloes, and rhinos. Spend the morning exploring the crater floor, where you’ll encounter a wide array of species, from zebras and wildebeests to flamingos gathered around the crater lakes.
  • Afternoon: Enjoy a picnic lunch in the heart of the crater, surrounded by stunning views of the crater walls and wildlife. Afterward, continue your exploration of the crater, visiting key spots where predators often hunt, and learn about the unique ecological balance that exists within this natural enclosure. Your guide will ensure you have plenty of time to witness the wildlife in action, whether it’s lions on the prowl or elephants at the watering hole.
  • Evening: After a thrilling day in Ngorongoro, begin your journey back to Arusha, where you’ll be transferred to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your departure. As you head home, you’ll carry with you unforgettable memories of your romantic and wild Tanzanian honeymoon adventure.
