Trip Itinerary

ARUSHA (1 Night)
1 Night

ARUSHA

Arriving into Kilimanjaro Airport from your international flights we always recommend an overnight in Arusha before setting off into the bush. Rivertrees Lodge is a long-time favourite of ours for the first night of your safari – close to the airport and you’ll find a friendly, relaxed atmosphere, good service and delicious home cooked food.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK (3 Nights)
3 Nights

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

Refreshed from a good night’s rest and hearty breakfast, it’s time to strike out into the bush. You’ll fly from Arusha airport to Seronera Airstrip where you will be met by your guide and transferred to Namiri Plains Camp in the eastern part of the Serengeti.

Accommodation

The cool and elegant Namiri Plains Camp is blessed with 360-degree views of the Serengeti so in any down time you’ll be able to sit and watch the resident wildlife roaming around the surrounding Serengeti plains. Each evening dinner is served in the spacious mess tent or under the blanket of stars, where you’ll enjoy a delicious three course meal. All meals are prepared from scratch by the camp chefs.

Namiri Plains

The biggest draw to Namiri is it’s Goldilocks’ location, nearly an hour from its nearest neighbour yet with near unbelievable big cat concentration.
