11-Day Kenya & Tanzania Safari with Extended Serengeti Experience

/in /by

Venture deep into the soul of Africa on a journey that links Kenya’s iconic reserves with Tanzania’s legendary parks. Witness the dramatic wildlife of the Maasai Mara, marvel at Lake Nakuru’s flamingo-fringed shores, and stand in the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli. Cross into Tanzania to explore the endless Serengeti plains, descend into the wildlife-dense Ngorongoro Crater, and wander beneath the ancient baobabs of Tarangire. This cross-border safari blends raw adventure, unforgettable landscapes, and rich traditions into one epic experience.

DAY 1: NAIROBI TO MAASAI MARA GAME RESERVE

Leave the bustling city behind as you travel through the Great Rift Valley, stopping for panoramic views that stretch to the horizon. After a hearty lunch in Narok, continue to the legendary Maasai Mara. In the evening, enjoy your first game drive—the golden savannahs coming alive with zebra, giraffe, and the possibility of a big cat sighting. Return to camp beneath a canopy of stars for dinner and rest.

DAY 2: MAASAI MARA FULL DAY GAME DRIVE

Begin the day with a sunrise breakfast before heading into the reserve for a full day of adventure. Track prides of lions lounging in the grass, elephants lumbering through acacia groves, and cheetahs on the hunt. Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the park and continue exploring until sunset. Optional visit to a nearby Maasai village offers insight into this proud warrior culture (≈ $10).

DAY 3: MAASAI MARA TO LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK

After breakfast, begin your journey north through the Rift Valley. Optional visit to a Maasai village before heading toward Lake Naivasha, where you may opt for a peaceful boat ride among hippos and waterbirds. Arrive near Lake Nakuru by evening and settle in for dinner and relaxation.

DAY 4: LAKE NAKURU TO AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK

Set out early for a game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park, famous for its vibrant birdlife and populations of black and white rhino. After lunch en route, journey south across Kenya’s heartlands to Amboseli National Park, arriving in time to enjoy sunset views of Mount Kilimanjaro.

DAY 5: FULL DAY GAME DRIVE IN AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK

Rise with the sun for a pre-breakfast game drive. The park’s wetlands, open plains, and swamps offer unrivaled elephant encounters and views of Kilimanjaro rising above the clouds. Enjoy picnic meals while surrounded by wildlife, and return to camp for dinner under the stars.

DAY 6: AMBOSELI TO ARUSHA (VIA NAMANGA BORDER)

After a final morning game drive, enjoy breakfast at camp and depart for the Namanga border. After crossing into Tanzania, transfer to Arusha—a gateway town to Tanzania’s northern safari circuit—for a relaxed evening.

DAY 7: ARUSHA TO SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

Depart early and head westward into the world-famous Serengeti. Enjoy lunch en route before arriving at the park gates. Begin your Serengeti adventure with a game drive through the plains teeming with wildlife. As the sun sets, settle in for a night deep in the wild.

DAY 8: SERENGETI  FULL DAY GAME VIEWING

After breakfast, embark on a full-day exploration of the Serengeti. Track the wildebeest migration (seasonal) and search for the elusive leopard or lounging lions. Picnic near the Grumeti River, home to crocodiles and hippos. The Serengeti’s open skies and endless plains offer unforgettable encounters throughout the day.

DAY 9: SERENGETI TO NGORONGORO CRATER

Spend the morning on a game drive through Serengeti’s shifting landscapes. On your way to Ngorongoro, you may choose to stop at Olduvai Gorge, one of the most important paleoanthropological sites in the world. Arrive at the crater rim in time for dinner and a breathtaking sunset view.

DAY 10: NGORONGORO CRATER TO ARUSHA

After breakfast, descend 600 meters into the Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive in one of Africa’s richest wildlife habitats. Spot black rhinos, lions, and flocks of flamingos gathered around the soda lake. Enjoy a picnic lunch in this World Heritage Site before heading back to Arusha in the afternoon.

DAY 11: DEPARTURE

Enjoy a relaxed breakfast before checking out. Depending on your travel plans, you will be transferred to Arusha Airport or take a shuttle back to Nairobi. Reflect on your cross-border safari adventure filled with unforgettable wildlife, landscapes, and cultures.
