With an emphasis on fine cuisine in a laid-back environment guests can enjoy an extensive evening restaurant menu, ‘theatre’ style grills for lunch or a ‘comfort’ menu, featuring traditional favourites, in the bar.

Day 02 Arusha – Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast drive to Ngorongorro Highlands with picnic Lunches and go straight to The Crater fooor for game drive. Lunch will be a picnic lunch at a site located near a hippo pool. After viewing game in the afternoon you proceed toward the lodge to your lodge.
Nestled onto the rim of the Crater, all in stone and wood construction and overgrown with natural vegetation, the 75 rooms of the lodge become almost unseen among the natural surroundings. They are breathtaking views of the crater from all the rooms.
Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most spectacular and certainly the most unique game-viewing destination on Earth. A perfectly-formed sunken caldera, ringed by 2000 foot high walls and inhabited by as wide a cross-section of wildlife as lives on the continent of Africa. We will take today to explore this awe-inspiring natural amphitheatre in full, using our 4WD safari-viewing vehicles to full effect in order to investigate every eco-system and pocket of the finest game-viewing destination on the planet. We have a very good chance of spotting the Big Five in a single day during our game drive including the endangered Black Rhino, and the network of tracks allows us a proximity rarely afforded elsewhere on the safari circuit.
Dinner and Overnight at Ngorongoro Serena Lodgee

Day 03 Ngorongoro – Serengeti National Park
After breakfast we drive to Serengeti onto the open plains of the vast Serengeti meaning ‘Endless Plains’ in Maa the language spoken by the indigenous Masai who had inhabited the area for centuries. You e will visit the famed Olduvai Gorge (approximately 3 hours drive depending) en-route to the Serengeti, where after years of perseverance Louis and Mary Leakey discovered the origins of Australopithecus Bosei, or the ‘Nut Cracker’ dating back millions of years.
Arguably the most famous National Park in the World, the Serengeti perhaps defines the safari experience as surely as the wildlife that inhabits it. Established in 1951, and covering an area of almost 15,000 sq km –an area comparable to the state of Connecticut or Northern Ireland, the Serengeti hosts a fantastically diverse eco-system The famous short and long grass plains of the south slowly unfurl into the Acacia savannah of the central area, the hilly, more densely wooded areas of the north, and the extensive woodland in the western corridor, each with its own resident variations of African wildlife. The Serengetii promises all that the first-time game-viewer or experienced safari-hand could ever hope to witness and it rarely, if ever, disappoints.
Dinner and Overnight at Private Mobile Camp

Day 04 & 05 Serengeti National Park
Two full days of excitement awaits you as you depart from the Camp at sunrise in order to capture the dawn activities, and the early morning light. Here at the Camp in Ndutu area you can walk instead of doing a game drive and explore the Area on foot, and also you have an opportunity to relax in the Camp – enjoying your natural environment watching a heard of Impala wander not far from the Camp before going for your afternoon game drive
The spacious verandah in front of your room is furnished with comfortable safari chairs and tables - the perfect retreat for a relaxing moment watching a weaver bird building its nest in a nearby Acacia tree, a herd of impala grazing quietly only meters away, or simply relaxing and listening to the sounds of the African bush.
Bathroom is complete with a dressing table with fully plumbed washbasin, lavatory and showers – a new, and often surprising, interpretation of ‘camping’. Hot water is available throughout the day and evening and, like your laundry, morning tea or in fact your every need will be arranged by your Butler allowing for a refreshing wash, shower or maybe a shave on the verandah of your tent.
Cuisine under canvas is exceptional, using only fresh ingredients, original recipes and with beautiful presentation our camp chefs never cease to amaze our guests. We cater to all dietary requirements, however demanding. Meals can be served al fresco or in the traditional mess tent and served by our liveried waiters.
