Day 1  Arrive Nairobi
Welcome to Kenya! Assistance is provided for your transfer to your luxury hotel for the next two nights.
Villa Rosa Kempinski

Day 2  Nairobi | Meals: B
An exciting morning awaits you arrive at the Daphne Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage for a fun and educational visit with these fragile yet resilient elephant orphans. Elephants are very social animals and you will be tempted to adopt each and every one of them! Later this afternoon, spend time visiting Karen von Blixen's former home before stopping in at the Giraffe Center for a very entertaining visit with the Rothschild's giraffes.
Villa Rosa Kempinski

Day 3  Nairobi-Masai Mara | Meals: BLD
A morning light aircraft flight takes you over the massive plains of the Masai Mara to your tented camp on the banks of the Ntiakitak River. Later this afternoon, with binoculars and cameras in hand, head out on your first game drive. Your camp is in the Olare Orok Conservancy bordering the Masai Mara and rarely does a night pass without the roar of a lion -- and perhaps the spotting of cheetah or leopard.
Olare Mara Kempinski

Day 4  Masai Mara | Meals: BLD
The excitement continues with both two game drives today.
Olare Mara Kempinski

Day 5  Masai Mara-Serengeti | Meals: BLD
Your thrilling safari continues today as you fly from the Mara to Nairobi, where you connect to the flight to Arusha and the Serengeti. After settling in at your lodge, enjoy an afternoon game drive.
Four Seasons Serengeti Lodge

Day 6  Serengeti | Meals: BLD
Rise early this morning and set out on your morning game drive as the sun rises over the horizon. Early morning in the African bush is magical, as animals and birds come to life. You'll have time to relax at the lodge before an afternoon game drive. As dusk approaches, the mood in the bush changes as predators get ready for the hunt and their prey become even more alert to survive the night.
Four Seasons Serengeti Lodge

Day 7  Serengeti-Ngorongoro | Meals: BLD
Fly to Lake Manyara today, and then continue by road to your lodge overlooking a coffee field and surrounded by stunning vistas. Later, enjoy a relaxing walk through the gardens or learn about how the organic Arabica coffee is grown using traditional methods.
Gibbs Farm

Day 8  Ngorongoro | Meals: BLD
An exciting day begins to unfold as you descend into Ngorongoro Crater. The crater floor is home to the one of the densest concentration of wildlife and you are sure to see large herds of elephants, zebra and much more. Predators are on hand too, so watch for lion and leopard. Enjoy a picnic lunch at the hippo pool - if you are lucky, the hippos may put on a show.
Gibbs Farm

Day 9  Ngorongoro-Arusha Depart | Meals: B
Drive back to Lake Manyara for the light aircraft flight to Arusha where a day room is available until your departure later this evening.

Arusha Coffee Lodge



Lying on the gentling rolling foothills that cascade down from the ever-present Mount Meru is the bustling and vibrant town of Arusha. It is here on the outskirts of this town, hidden amongst one of Tanzania's largest coffee plantations, that you will find Arusha Coffee Lodge, a perfect haven for relaxation either before or after any African safari.

Comprising of 30 Plantation Houses - inclusive of 12 Plantation Suites - that radiate out into the evergreen coffee fields, Arusha Coffee Lodge has been designed around the original landowner's home that dates back to the early 1900's.

The theme of coffee is never far away at Arusha Coffee Lodge, and this is never more evident than in the Plantation Suites where the theme coffee bean permeates even the interior designs of both the main bedroom as well as the beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom.

The homely feel of the Lodge is by no means accidental as the origins of the homestead continue to emit glimpses of times-gone-by. The friendly and personable staff help create an ambiance that continues to draw appreciation from all those who visit and stay.

Within the main Plantation House reside an 'a la carte' restaurant, an intimate bar and a cozy lounge, all of which possess inviting open log fires that will fill the cool night air with a comforting warmth and a welcoming glow.

With two boutiques, an enclosed and intimate swimming pool and a popular garden terrace, Arusha Coffee Lodge encourages exploration and discovery at every turn.

From the industrious coffee pickers gathering in the harvest to the aromas of the morning brew emanating from the main Plantation House as breakfast is being prepared, Arusha Coffee Lodge is full of sensory experiences that revitalizes the body and soul for the adventures and excitement that lie ahead.
