Boker · Adventures together
Year-end safari together
Discover Tarangire woodland and baobab country, followed by a morning in Ngorongoro Crater. An arrival night in Arusha gives you time to settle in before the safari begins. This compact journey visits two wildlife areas without travelling farther north.
Your time together
The proposed programme
The team confirms the exact services and any changes in your written offer. Weather, park access and guide decisions can affect the daily plan.
01Arrival in Tanzania
Meet your Boker Adventures representative at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) and transfer to your Arusha hotel. Rest after the flight; no game drive is scheduled. Your briefing covers timings, meals, wildlife etiquette, medical or mobility needs and booked extras. Late arrivals receive the briefing the next morning. Allow about 1-1.5 hours for the transfer, depending on the hotel and traffic. Arrange late dinner in advance. Overnight: Arusha. Meal included: dinner.
02Tarangire National Park
After breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park. Explore woodland, river habitats and open areas with your guide, pausing for wildlife and a picnic lunch. Look for elephants, giraffes, antelope and birds without a fixed sightings checklist. Leave in time to travel to Karatu and settle into your lodge before dinner. Arusha to Tarangire gate: approximately 2-3 hours. Park exit to Karatu: approximately 1.5-2.5 hours, in addition to viewing, gate formalities and stops. Overnight: Karatu. Meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner.
03Ngorongoro Crater and return to Arusha
Leave Karatu early with breakfast or a breakfast box. After entry formalities, descend into Ngorongoro Crater for a morning game drive and picnic lunch. Explore the accessible habitats within the permitted session; rhino and predator sightings are never guaranteed. Ascend around midday or early afternoon as agreed with your guide, then return to Arusha and finish at your chosen hotel. Allow about 1.5-2 hours from Karatu to the crater access area, then the game-drive session. The return from the crater area to Arusha can take approximately 4-5 hours, including ordinary gate procedures but excluding long stops. Expect a long day and potentially an evening arrival. Meals: breakfast and lunch. No third hotel night, dinner or onward airport transfer is included. Driving times are estimates, not guarantees.
