With the privilege of off-road driving, your guide will position you near dramatic scenes of life, struggle, and survival. You may also spot elusive species such as bat-eared foxes, caracals, and African wildcats. Enjoy a picnic lunch under an acacia tree while surrounded by the sounds of the wild.

Formed millions of years ago, the crater supports more than 25,000 large mammals within its walls. After descending to the crater floor, you’ll encounter black rhinos, elephants, lions, hippos, and perhaps even a leopard in the Lerai Forest. The diverse habitats—lakes, grasslands, forests, and marshes—make this one of Africa’s richest wildlife sanctuaries. Enjoy a picnic lunch by a hippo pool as flamingos shimmer across Lake Magadi. In the afternoon, ascend the crater walls and return to Arusha Airport for your flight to Zanzibar, where turquoise waters and soft white sands await.
