The Elewana Safari Itinerary
Tanzania lies to the south of Kenya and offers a wealth of game watching opportunities. Our safaris visit Tanzania's best game viewing areas including the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. All Tanzania safaris operate using 4-wheel drive vehicles, with a window seat guaranteed.
Journey through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the famed Serengeti. Venture into the dry and savagely beautiful bush country, which attracts a variety of wildlife including wildebeest, zebras, elephants, rhinos, oryx, buffalo, Africa's big cats and birds of prey.
Arusha Coffee Lodge lies cradled in the endless acres of Tanzania's largest coffee plantation. This exclusive boutique lodge radiates the warmth of the old colonial plantation homes. Why not take the opportunity to relax by the pool and take in some of the scenery of the surrounding area.
Then onto the elephant capital of Tarangire. Here you will stay at Tarangire TreeTops, perched high up in the age-old baobab and marula trees. This exclusive lodge has a magical, adventurous and exotic feel, whilst exuding a timeless essence, which will take you back to days gone by.
Ngorongoro Farm House is situated at the foot of Ngorongoro Crater and boasts three stylish and sophisticated, yet refreshingly simple camps. This is a perfect place to relax with the possibility of cycling or walking around the scenic coffee plantations.
Onto the world-famous Serengeti National Park, which will include a stay at the Serengeti Migration Camp. Richly furnished throughout, the camp provides a haven of sumptuous indulgence. Its spacious tents have been carefully placed to provide privacy and they blend into the natural environment, overlooking the Grumeti River and its resident hippos.
