Then head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species.

Day 7: Ngorongoro - Arusha
Stop At: Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Arusha Region
You will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park, is its dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos and other water birds can usually be seen here.
Estimates of the height of the original volcano range from 4, 500 to 5, 800 meters (14, 800 to 19, 000 feet) high.
Late afternoon transfer to Arusha for an Overnight stay or airport drop off.

The safari was awesome! Our expectations have even been exceeded. Everything worked out on plan and on time. The day before we left, the owner of the company, Hilary, came by and explained everything. Our guide was with us the whole time and was very helpful and friendly. He knows everything about African Wildlife! When we had some special wishes, he tried everything to make them come true. We even stayed longer in the parks than planned. The cook was also excellent. After the safari we meet up with Hilary again, he was honestly interested in our experiences. He even organized a driver for the next morning, which was for free, and invited us to a dinner. We had also s lot of questions, which he all answered. We highly recommend to book with suricata Safaris, it was an experience of s lifetime.Amazing experiance with amazing people. The organisation was excellent! The driver, guide, cook and even the owner of the company were super nice and professional.

Amazing experiance with amazing people. The organisation was excellent! The driver, guide, cook and even the owner of the company were super nice and professional. Driver Ali picked us up at the airport and took us to the hotel in Arusha, where we spent the night. Early in the morning Rocky the guide picked us up at the hotel and we started the trip. The guide was very experianced and ansvered to all our queations.. he told us a lot of the history and facts about the Tanzania and the animals. He spoke very good English and French, among other languages.. the cook Action was very nice and cooked very good food for us, we even got a very good African wine. We saw a lot of animals and all the big 5. We were very lucky to have a guide that knew where to find all of them. We slept in tents in public camps. Tents were big enough for two people to be very comfortable in. I would advise to take warm clothes with you for this trip because in Ngorongoro is really cold and windy. I would definitely recomend Suricata Safari for this ecperience.It was just perfect. Much more than I expected. It was well organized. Our driver, the guide Ezekiel was absolutely amazing.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Safari and would recommend this tour to anyone! 3 days was the perfect amount of time to see an abundance of wildlife across the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Hilary also took great care of us from the moment we arrived at the airport until we left the morning of the safari. He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable during our stay in Arusha.Unsere Safari hat alle unsere Erwartungen übertroffen.

Unsere Safari hat alle unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Weil wir vorher in Moshi waren, hat der Organisator, Hilary, veranlasst, dass wir dort abgeholt wurden. Als wir in Moshi ankamen, wurden wir bereits von ihm erwartet. Er erklärte uns alles über die Safari, gab uns viele hilfreiche Tipps und erklärte uns auch, was wir noch so in Arusha unternehmen konnten. Am nächsten Morgen wurden wir pünktlich von unserem Guide, Florid, abgeholt. Florid, der in einem der Nationalparks geboren wurde, wusste wirklich alles über die Tiere, die Landschaft etc. Wir haben uns sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Unser erster Stop war im Tarangire Nationalpark - die Landschaft war atemberaubend und die Tierwelt natürlich auch. Am Abend hat das Essen alle unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Am nächsten Tag fuhren wir weiter zur Serengeti. Florid schaffte es, dass wir neben Leoparden, Löwen und Geparden natürlich auch Elefanten, Giraffen und Zebras sahen. Die Atmosphäre war einfach nur schön! Am Abend aßen wir wieder alle zusammen und tauschten uns aus. Der letzte Stop war im Ngorogoro-Krater, dort sahen wir Nilpferde, Löwen aus nächster Nähe und Hyänen sowie viele andere Tiere. Florid wusste auf jede Frage eine Antwort. Als wir wieder in Arusha ankamen, wartete Hilary schon. Er lud uns zum Essen ein und hörte sich alle unsere Erfahrungen an. Er hatte großes Interesse daran zu erfahren, wie wir die Safari erlebt haben. Wir würden jederzeit wieder mit Suricata-Safaris buchen und stehen mit dem Guide noch immer in Kontakt. Ganz klare Empfehlung :-)
