21+ Day Private Group Tanzania Adventure

Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will proceed through immigration and security, where officials will verify your passport, visa, and other necessary travel documents. Please ensure these are readily available for a smooth entry process. After clearing immigration and collecting your luggage, make your way to the arrivals area. A Kojuu Safaris driver-guide will be waiting to welcome you, holding a sign with your name for easy identification. You’ll be greeted with a warm smile, assisted with your luggage, and escorted to your private transfer vehicle. From there, you’ll enjoy a comfortable drive to Arusha city, where your safari adventure begins.

You will start hiking around midnight, using your headlamp to guide you slowly up to Stella Point and then onward to the summit. Because of the high altitude, the pace will be slow, and it’s important to dress warmly to protect against the cold. After celebrating with photos at the summit, you will descend down to Mweka Camp.

Still thrilled by your achievement, breakfast is served at 7:00 AM, followed by the ‘Tipping Celebration’ at 8:00 AM—a chance to thank your trekking team.

Your vehicle will be waiting to take you back to your hotel in Arusha, where you can choose to rest—or, if you have energy left, celebrate your incredible journey!

After breakfast, your guide will pick you up and drive to Tarangire National Park. Located 120 km from Arusha in the northern circuit, the drive takes about two hours.

After breakfast, your Kojuu Safaris driver-guide will pick you up for one last thrilling day in the Serengeti, taking you deeper into the park to explore its breathtaking landscapes and encounter more of the diverse wildlife that makes this region so extraordinary. As your final Serengeti game drive comes to a close, you’ll begin the journey toward Karatu, a charming town nestled in the lush highlands near the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Upon arrival at your lodge or camp, you’ll have time to relax, enjoy a delicious dinner, and unwind in preparation for tomorrow’s adventure—the awe-inspiring Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s most celebrated natural wonders.

Today, you will journey into the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, often referred to as the “8th Wonder of the World.” This vast, unbroken volcanic caldera—one of the most remarkable wildlife havens on Earth—is home to over 25,000 large mammals, including lions, black rhinos, zebras, elephants, and hyenas. As you descend into this natural amphitheater, you’ll experience close-up encounters with wildlife set against a backdrop of lush plains and shimmering soda lakes, earning its reputation as “Africa’s Garden of Eden.” After a day filled with awe-inspiring sights, you’ll ascend from the crater and begin your transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your onward flight.

After breakfast and your final transfer from Arusha/Kilimanjaro Airport, you will take a domestic flight to Zanzibar Island. Upon arrival, your driver will meet you and transfer you to your hotel in Stone Town, the cultural heart of Zanzibar. You will enjoy the historic streets, Swahili architecture, and ocean breeze as you settle into island life.
