About this trip

Immerse yourself in an unforgettable wildlife experience in Tanzania! This 14-day journey takes you into some of the country’s most renowned parks and protected areas, such as Arusha and Tarangire National Parks and stunning Ngorongoro Crater. During safari drives, you’ll search for the famed “Big Five”—lions, leopards, elephants, black rhinos, and African buffalos—along with other large animals like giraffes, hippos, hyenas, cheetahs, crocodiles, and more. The adventure culminates in the legendary Serengeti plains, where you’ll encounter vast migrating herds of wildebeests, zebras, and other grazing mammals. The experience is enriched by opportunities to engage with community members as you visit a village, meet schoolchildren, and savor a meal hosted in the home of a local family.

Highlights

  • Seek out some of Tanzania’s most iconic animal species and witness the Great Migration, one of the most spectacular natural phenomena on the planet.
  • Descend into the intact caldera of Ngorongoro Crater, a natural amphitheater with a high concentration of wildlife.
  • Walk in the foothills of Mt. Meru for the chance to see black-and-white colobus monkeys, African buffalos, giraffes, and impressive views of Mt. Kilimanjaro in the distance.
  • Learn about archaeologists Louis and Mary Leakey during a visit to Olduvai Gorge, where the discovery of primitive tools and fossilized remains helped inform present-day theories on human evolution.
  • Visit a local school and meet with the students and teachers for a look at Tanzania’s educational system.

Activity Level 3: Moderate

This journey visits six locations over 14 days. During your time in the Serengeti, you’ll stay at comfortable semi-permanent camps (or, depending on the time of year, a semi-permanent camp and a mobile tented camp, which is moved seasonally to best observe migrating herds and attendant predators). Daily wildlife viewing takes place aboard 4x4 safari vehicles with wide windows and pop-up roofs. Although comfortable, safari vehicles are primarily utilitarian in nature. Expect to be out for 3–5 hours at a time, typically starting early in the morning, with a midday break followed by another late-afternoon outing. Be prepared for long drives on unpacked, sometimes rocky roads, which may be difficult for those with hip or back pain. Getting into and out of the safari vehicles may also be challenging for some participants. There are several game walks where armed rangers lead you on foot—a rare feature. You’ll walk along relatively flat but occasionally rocky paths for 1-3 hours. Other activities include a school visit and family-hosted lunch. Elevations range from 3,232–7,500 feet. Daytime temperatures vary based on location and season, but are generally warm (55–82 ˚F). It is always colder in the evenings and early mornings; plan to dress in layers. July to October is the coolest, driest and dustiest season.

Arusha Serena Hotel
Arusha
Day 3
After breakfast, attend a welcome orientation and then depart for Arusha National Park. Your first stop is at the ranger post, where you'll receive an introduction to the park and its history. Learn about a section of the park known as "Little Serengeti," an area of open grassland where a variety of species come to graze. Also learn about nearby Mt. Meru; this dormant volcano is the second-highest mountain in Tanzania. Depart from the ranger post for a walk in the foothills of Mt. Meru accompanied by an armed ranger. Pass through Buffalo Swamp and arrive at a lookout point with views of the park and impressive Mt. Kilimanjaro in the distance. Continue to a waterfall and then open grasslands dotted with giraffes, warthogs, antelopes, flamingos, and a variety of other bird species. Set out into a wooded area in search of black-and-white colobus monkeys before returning to the ranger post. A boxed lunch will be provided in the park. Return to the lodge in the late afternoon. Enjoy a lecture on the history of Tanzania before dinner this evening.
Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner included
Arusha Serena Hotel
Tarangire National Park
Day 4
After checking out of the hotel and loading the safari vehicles, begin the drive to Tarangire National Park, home to some of the largest elephant herds in Tanzania. The Tarangire River snakes through the park, and as it's the area's only permanent river, many animals travel long distances to reach it. In addition to elephants, wildebeests, zebras, gazelles, elands, gerenuks, giraffes, lions, and leopards can be seen within the park's nearly 1,100 square miles of protected lands. Extensive grasslands, dotted with the occasional acacia or baobab tree, provide optimal conditions for viewing wildlife. Bird enthusiasts will have the opportunity to see more than 500 avian species, including Yellow-collared Lovebirds, Rufous-tailed Weavers, Ashy Starlings, Common Ostriches, Kori Bustards, and Lilac-breasted Rollers. In the afternoon, arrive at Tarangire Sopa Lodge. Designed to blend in with the vastness of its surroundings, the lodge is set among the kopjes (small rocky hills) and ancient baobab trees, and elephants can frequently be seen around the area.
Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner included
Tarangire Sopa Lodge
Tarangire National Park
Day 5
An armed park ranger will meet you at the lodge this morning for an escorted nature walk through Tarangire National Park. Exploring on foot gives a different perspective of the landscape, and a better look at some of Tarangire's smaller fauna, such as mongooses, dik-diks, hyraxes, and ground-dwelling birds. Return to the lodge in time for lunch, followed by free time to rest and enjoy the lodge amenities. In the mid-afternoon, return to the park for another wildlife-viewing drive in the safari vehicles.
Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner included
Tarangire Sopa Lodge
Ngorongoro Crater
Day 6
Set out early this morning for a visit to a local school. Learn what a typical school day is like in Tanzania as you interact with the teachers and students, and hear from the children what it takes for them to get to and from school every day. Please note: It is not mandatory to bring donations for the school and/or the children. However, anyone who wishes to do so might consider bringing a few basic school supplies such as pencils, erasers, pens, colored markers, etc. to donate during the visit. Afterwards, visit the village of Mto wa Mbu to enjoy lunch prepared by a local family with an explanation of the different culinary delights and how they are made. Today's drive will end at your accommodations near Ngorongoro Crater. You will have some free time to relax and take in the spectacular views on a walk around the lodge and crater rim.
Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner included
Ngorongoro Serena or similar
Ngorongoro Crater
Day 7
Descend into Ngorongoro Crater for a full day of wildlife observation. This sunken volcanic caldera is approximately 10 to 12 miles in diameter and is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its important role in biodiversity conservation. Vast grasslands cover most of the crater floor and provide ample grazing for resident zebras, gazelles, wildebeest, elephants, warthogs, and rhinos. With a large number of prey species contained within the crater, it is not surprising that Ngorongoro is also home to a dense population of lions. A seasonal soda lake attracts Greater Flamingos, Great White Pelicans, and other water birds. Other commonly seen animals include hyenas, jackals, baboons, vervet monkeys, hippopotamuses, and African buffalos. A boxed bush lunch will be provided inside the crater to allow for a full day of exploration.
Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner included
Ngorongoro Serena or similar
Serengeti
Day 8
Today, check out and depart for the Serengeti, Tanzania's first national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Together with Kenya's Masai Mara ecosystem, the Serengeti supports one of the planet's most amazing natural phenomena, the Great Migration - the year-round cyclical movement of millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles as they follow the seasonal rains and green grass for grazing. Once you cross through the park gate, your wildlife drive begins. Your guide/driver will follow the best path to your camp, based on their knowledge of where wildlife is most likely to be seen at that particular time. Upon arrival at the semi-permanent camp, you will have the remainder of the late afternoon to enjoy the sunset and dinner.
Breakfast-Lunch-Dinner included

Day 9
Early this morning, begin your first safari drive of the day. In addition to wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles, Serengeti National Park's high concentration of wildlife also includes the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, black rhino, and African buffalo), as well as cheetahs, giraffes, monkeys, and more than 500 bird species. This morning's excursion will include breakfast out in the field. Return to the camp late in the morning and have lunch. Enjoy some free time to rest and relax before heading out for the mid-afternoon wildlife safari. In the evening, gather around the campfire and have a discussion with your guide about the Great Migration in Tanzania.

Learn about archaeologists Louis and Mary Leakey, who began their first excavations of this area in the 1930s as they searched for clues to the origin of humankind. The Leakey team's discovery of primitive tools and, later, fossilized hominid remains (Australopithecus boisei and Homo habilis) at this site helped lay the foundation for present-day theories on human evolution. After lunch, continue to Karatu. Upon arrival to the lodge, embark on a short exploratory walk around the lodge's farm/coffee plantation.

Entry & Exit Requirements

U.S. citizens must have a valid passport to enter Tanzania. Passports must be valid for at least six months after the date of entry and have at least one blank page available.

A tourist visa is also required for entry. An e-visa can be obtained online in advance by completing the e-visa application form and making payment online with a credit card (Visa or Mastercard) or bank transfer at https://visa.immigration.go.tz. Processing can take up to 10 days; please allow yourself sufficient time prior to travel. If the e-visa is approved, you will receive a “grant notice” via email. You must present a printed copy of the grant notice to the Immigration Officer on arrival at the airport in Tanzania.

U.S. citizens may also opt to obtain a tourist visa upon arrival at the airport in Tanzania, though we do not recommend this option. Expect delays if you choose to obtain a visa at the airport. Be prepared to pay in cash, as credit card payments can be unreliable due to connectivity issues.

The visa fee is USD $100 for a 12-month multiple-entry visa (subject to change).

If you are not traveling with a U.S. passport, please check with the Tanzanian Embassy for the requirements based on your nationality.

Health Information

IMMUNIZATIONS

The Centers for Disease Control recommends that all travelers be up to date on routine vaccinations such as measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine, diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus vaccine, varicella (chicken pox) vaccine, and your yearly flu shot before every trip.

There are no vaccinations required for entry into Tanzania, unless you are traveling from a country where yellow fever transmission is a risk, in which case proof of yellow fever vaccination is required.

Additionally, the CDC recommends inoculation against hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and typhoid for most travelers to Tanzania.

Please consult your physician for additional information and recommendations based on your individual circumstances.

MALARIA

The CDC warns that travelers to Tanzania may be at risk for exposure to malaria. Malaria is caused by a parasite found in Anopheles mosquitos, which are active from dusk until dawn. Prevention is twofold: the use of anti-malarial drugs and the prevention of insect bites. If you choose to use an anti-malarial drug, as recommended by the CDC, see your physician for a prescription.

To protect against mosquitos, the CDC recommends that you cover exposed skin with lightweight, long-sleeved shirts and pants, consider treating clothes with permethrin, and use an insect repellent containing an EPA-registered active ingredient like DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus (OLE). Apply sunscreen first, followed by the repellent, ideally 20 minutes later.

Be careful when applying products containing DEET, as it can damage or dissolve certain synthetic fabrics as well as plastic, rubber, vinyl, or elastic materials, such as those used in camera equipment, binoculars, phone cases, sunglasses, or watches. Additionally, some research suggests that when DEET and picaridin enter local waterways, they can be harmful to amphibians and other wildlife. When selecting a repellent, it is ultimately up to each traveler to weigh the risks and benefits of different options, keeping in mind both environmental factors and the importance of protecting against illness.

OTHER INSECT-BORNE ILLNESSES

In addition to malaria, the CDC warns that travelers may be at risk for other illnesses transmitted by mosquitos, ticks, or sand flies, such as dengue fever, chikungunya, African tick-bite fever, and others. Travelers are advised to protect themselves against insect bites using the measures noted above.

After spending time outdoors, especially in grassy or wooded areas, the CDC recommends showering and conducting a full-body check for ticks. If you find a tick attached to your skin, safely remove it as soon as possible.

WILDLIFE

Follow all instructions from your guides regarding wildlife. Animals may become aggressive to protect themselves, their young or their mates, or to guard a food supply. Do not make sudden movements either toward or away from them, as this may be interpreted as threatening or territorial. Avoid stray dogs, as they may carry rabies. In the unlikely event of being bitten, clean the wound and control bleeding. Seek medical attention immediately.

Parasites & Bacteria

Avoid swimming or bathing in freshwater lakes or rivers. Some freshwater bodies contain disease-causing parasites or bacteria that may be contracted through contact with infected water.

SUN EXPOSURE

The effects of the sun can be damaging to the eyes and skin. Spending time outdoors exposes you to the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, even on cloudy days. To protect yourself from the sun, use a broad spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 15, protect skin with clothing, wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses, and drink plenty of fluids.

CPAP Machines

Some safari lodges and tented camps in remote areas of Tanzania supply electricity through generators or solar power, and shut off electrical power during part of the night in order to conserve energy. If you use a CPAP machine, please be prepared to bring a battery pack (and any necessary cables) to power your equipment when electricity is not available. The battery pack can be charged during the day in preparation for nighttime use. Please be aware that if you do not have a battery pack, some lodges may assess a fee to run electricity through the night.

Travelers Diarrhea

The CDC warns that travelers’ diarrhea is one of the most common travel-related illnesses worldwide. Consumption of contaminated food and water may cause diarrhea. To avoid this, do not drink tap water, and use bottled water to brush your teeth. Avoid ice and uncooked vegetables or fruit without a peel. When in doubt, ask your guide. Restrict yourself to cooked food at restaurants, and avoid food sold on the streets. If you contract diarrhea, it is important to drink large quantities of purified water. Consult your doctor for appropriate medication should you experience diarrhea.

Altitude Sickness

At elevations above 5,000 feet, altitude sickness is a possibility. Stay hydrated and well-rested, and avoid heavy, fatty foods and alcohol in the days before arrival. Consult your physician prior to travel for advice specific to your situation.

Respiratory Illness Protocols

Please review our Respiratory Illness Protocols page, which explains our policy and procedures if you or another traveler should develop symptoms of a respiratory illness during your trip. Your participation in a Holbrook Travel program indicates that you are in agreement with these protocols.

Packing Recommendations

Everyone has personal preferences when it comes to packing; for this reason, the information below is offered as a general guide and not a definitive list. You know yourself best: Use your discretion and pack what you think will serve you, based on your personal preferences and specific itinerary.

You can find many of the items below in our Gear Store.

CLOTHING

Casual, comfortable clothing is suitable for most activities in Tanzania. You may wish to bring a slightly nicer outfit or two if your itinerary includes dinners out or more formal activities.

Bring enough clothing suitable for the length of your program. If you prefer to pack light, note that many hotels offer laundry services (at additional cost). If you plan to hand-wash items, remember that humidity may delay drying time.

Pack clothing that can be worn in layers to adapt to weather changes throughout the day. Clothing that wicks away moisture and dries quickly is recommended.

Bring clothes in neutral or muted colors such as green, khaki, brown, or gray. We recommend that you avoid wearing white as it can easily be spotted by animals, and it gets dirty quickly. In addition, black and bright or dark blue may attract tsetse flies, which have a painful bite. Regardless of clothing color, tsetse flies can bite through fabric, so wearing loose-fitting and/or layered clothing can help protect against bites, as can wearing a pair of thick hiking socks, especially on days when you are most likely to encounter them (such as in Tarangire National Park).

Please note that army-style camouflage clothing is illegal in Tanzania.

Locals tend to dress conservatively. Tank tops and shorts cut above the knee are typically not recommended in public.

  • A combination of short-sleeved and long-sleeved shirts
  • Shorts
  • A combination of lightweight, quick-drying long pants and medium-weight pants or trousers
  • Undergarments
  • Sleepwear
  • Light- to medium-weight jacket or sweater/sweatshirt – Evenings can be cold, especially in desert areas, on the Ngorongoro Crater rim, and during May-August
  • Bathing suit – Some hotels have pools.
  • Socks – Bring extra pairs.
  • Shoes – Consider your specific itinerary when choosing footwear. For most programs, you’ll likely want at least one pair of comfortable, closed-toe walking or hiking shoes with thorn-proof soles, suitable for forest hikes and walking over cobblestones or other uneven terrain. Sturdier hiking boots may be appropriate for more active itineraries. In addition, many participants opt for a pair of sturdy sport-strap sandals (e.g. Keens, Tevas, or similar), plus a pair of casual flip-flops or sandals for around your hotel.
  • Lightweight rain jacket, hooded poncho, and/or windbreaker
  • Visor or wide-brimmed sun hat
  • Bandana, scarf, or neck gaiter

Personal Toiletries

Pack toiletries based on your personal preferences and habits.

  • Shampoo, conditioner, lotion, deodorant/antiperspirant , etc. – If possible, avoid strong fragrances if you are sensitive to insect bites and to be considerate of your fellow travelers.
  • Soap and washcloth or a small, quick-drying microfiber towel – Washcloths are not standard in all hotels. If you normally use a washcloth, you may wish to bring one from home.
  • Hairbrush, comb, hair ties, shower cap
  • Toothbrush and toothpaste
  • Razor
  • Ear plugs, especially if you are a light sleeper
  • Personal hygiene products
  • Insect repellent
  • Sunscreen and lip balm with SPF
  • A travel pack of tissues – also useful as napkins or toilet paper if needed

In addition to your personal toiletries, it is useful to pack a small medical kit, which you can easily prepare. Helpful items might include: bandages, antihistamine, a pain reliever, motion sickness and/or altitude sickness medication (if you are prone to either), anti-diarrhea medicine, powdered electrolyte packets for dehydration, aloe vera gel for sunburn, individually wrapped pre-moistened towelettes and/or hand sanitizer, antibiotic ointment, anti-fungal cream, moleskin for blisters, eye drops, tweezers, a mini sewing kit, and an extra pair of disposable contact lenses or eyeglasses if you wear them.

Miscellaneous

Remember to pack valuables such as your passport, cash/credit cards, and medications in your carry-on luggage.

  • Passport and photocopies of all travel documentation
  • Personal insurance card and travel insurance information
  • Money – ATM/credit card, traveler's checks, and/or cash; small bills in good condition are recommended
  • Prescription medicines (if applicable), with a copy of the prescription
  • Yellow fever certificate (if required; only if you're traveling from a country where yellow fever transmission is a risk)
  • Sunglasses with strap
  • Small day pack for hikes and excursions
  • Flashlight and/or head lamp
  • Travel alarm clock or inexpensive waterproof wristwatch with alarm – Not all hotels provide alarm clocks.
  • A pocket calculator or phone to assist with conversions and currency exchange
  • Binoculars with lens cleaner
  • Camera and related equipment, such as charger, lenses, and extra memory cards
  • Reusable water bottle – The safari vehicles are equipped with large water jugs. Please bring your own personal water bottle that can be refilled from the jugs during wildlife-viewing drives.
  • Non-perishable snacks
  • Pocket-knife or multipurpose tool – Pack in your checked luggage.
  • Notepad or travel journal and pen
  • Travel seat cushion – Seats in the safari vehicles are cushioned, but if you normally have hip or back problems, you may appreciate having some extra padding on the bumpy roads.
  • Music or reading material for down time, long bus drives, or on the airplane, and a portable bright light to read by
  • Collapsible walking stick with rubber tip – Pack in your checked luggage.
  • A small quantity of laundry detergent if you’ll be washing clothing by hand
  • Money belt
  • Voltage converter and plug adapter
  • Chargers for electronics

Additional Packing notes

Be aware that Tanzania has banned single-use plastics. Visitors are requested to avoid bringing plastic bags into the country. This includes garbage bags and grocery/shopping bags. Zip-top style bags specifically used to carry toiletries per TSA’s liquids rule are still permitted on the assumption that they will be reused on the return flight. Items purchased at the airport before boarding the aircraft should be removed from plastic bags. Please double-check your carry-on luggage before disembarking in Tanzania; any plastic bags should be left on the plane to avoid delays and possibly fines.

Although comfortable, safari vehicles are primarily utilitarian in nature and have very limited storage space. For this reason, we ask you to be mindful of what you bring for this program, traveling only with the essentials, and to please use a soft-sided duffel bag (no longer than 22 inches) as your main piece of luggage. In addition to your duffel bag, there will also be room for a medium-sized carry-on item (e.g. a camera bag, purse, or lightweight daypack).

If you do not have a duffel bag, please advise Holbrook or your trip host in advance of the trip. Then, at your first program orientation in Tanzania, your local guide will be able to provide a canvas duffel (one per person) for you to pack what you will need during the program. We will securely store your empty suitcase until the last day of the program, at which time you will be able to retrieve your suitcase and re-pack in preparation for your flights home. The dimensions of the provided duffel bag are 22 in x 11.8 in x 11 in (56 cm x 30 cm x 28 cm).

To protect against dust, you may wish to bring a bandana to cover your face, and a microfiber cloth or other covering for your binoculars and/or camera equipment.

During wildlife-viewing drives, you'll be spending much of your time in the vehicles, so heavy-duty hiking boots aren't needed; closed-toe walking shoes or sneakers are usually sufficient. A pair that easily slips on and off will allow you to stand on the seats of the safari vehicle for a better view when the roof hatch is open.
