ULTIMATE TRAVEL EXPERIENCE

A journey designed for adventure and unforgettable memories.

Day 1 | Arrival- Welcome to Tanzania

Our first day will be reserved for your arrival, and you may arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport in Arusha at any time, as we have no fixed birding plans for the day. Once at the lodge, we will likely stroll around the grounds, which are often quite productive. We may see African Black Duck, Silvery-cheeked Hornbill, White-eared and Brown-breasted Barbets, Black-throated Wattle-eye, Grey-olive Greenbul, Kenrick’s Starling, Rüppell’s Robin-Chat, Mountain Wagtail and the range-restricted Taveta Weaver.

Day 2 | Full day Birding in Arusha National Park

Have an early morning breakfast and leave with picnic lunch for full day walking safari and bird watching trip in Arusha national park in search for birds like African fish eagle, Hartlaub’s turaco, Little grebe, African olive pigeon, Peregrine falcon, Red-fronted parrot, Augur buzzard, Bar tailed trogon, Bearded vulture, Black saw-wing, Egyptian goose, Cinnamon-chested bee-eater, Tawny eagle, Great crested grebe, Narina trogon, Scaly francolin, Silvery-cheeked hornbill, Southern pochard, Verreaux’s eagle among others. You will also encounter a number animals including the elephant, hyena, buffalo, giraffe, hippopotamus, baboon, zebra, and a wide range of antelopes. Return to the lodge for dinner and overnight at Rivertrees Country Inn

Day 3 | Arusha to Tarangire National Park

The drive to Tarangire National Park will take up most of the remaining day; however, upon arrival in this most breathtaking park, the long drive becomes all the more worth it. Elephants covered in the red soils of the park stroll among baobabs and savanna-clad hills while wild rivers intersect the park. It’s the type of place that leaves you in no doubt that you’re in Africa. Our main targets here will include localized and endemic species like Yellow-collared Lovebird, the unassuming Ashy Starling and the characterful Northern Pied Babbler, all of which we usually manage to find. We will work the Acacia woodlands for Von der Decken’s and Northern Red-billed Hornbills, Yellow-necked and Red-necked Spurfowl, Black-faced Sandgrouse, Bearded Woodpecker, Abyssinian Scimitarbill, Eastern Violet-backed Sunbird and many more! Bustards feature well here, and we may see White-bellied, Hartlaub’s, and Buff-crested Bustards, along with other larger terrestrial species like Southern Ground Hornbill and Common Ostrich. Good rains in the area often produce an influx of seasonal wetland specials like Black Coucal and Dwarf
Bittern. At the same time, giant baobabs are frequented by nesting Mottled Spinetails, which construct their nests in these unique-looking trees.
Wewill search for waterbirds, including White-faced Whistling Duck, Knob-billed Duck, Saddle-billed Stork, Hamerkop and Grey Crowned Crane along the Tarangire River.

Day 4 | Full day in Tarangire National Park

This will be our final day in Tarangire National Park, and as usual, we will search for any species that we have not yet connected with. We are likely to be distracted along the way by the excellent wildlife-watching opportunities in Tarangire and plan to end our day enjoying a sundowner while overlooking the Tarangire River from the lodge’s balcony. Brazen Ashy Starlings may harass us for any morsels, and African Scops Owls will serenade us at dusk.
Although not included in the tour price, Tarangire offers exciting night drives, and you will have an opportunity tonight to join one of these excursions. Nocturnal species that may be encountered include Verreaux’s Eagle-Owl, Southern White-faced Owl, Bronze-winged and Three banded Coursers, East African Springhare, Northern Lesser Galago and African Savanna Hare.

Days 5 &6 | Serengeti: wildebeest herds, predators and savanna birding

Weset off for the iconic Serengeti National Park this morning. This journey will likely be an unforgettable day for all participants, particularly those who have never been to Africa, as we will surely encounter an abundance of charismatic mammals like African Elephant and African Buffalo, in addition to a spectacular diversity of birds. Several raptor species occur here, including the colorful Bateleur and stately Seceretarybird, the latter of which can be seen roaming the plains in search of their favored prey– snakes. These plains are also home to Common Ostriches; we shouldn’t have any trouble picking out these giant birds. Smaller birds are also abundant, many boasting striking plumages, such as Little Bee-eater, Purple Grenadier, Lilac-breasted Roller, Hildebrandt’s Starling and Beautiful Sunbird, among many others. Other plains targets and savanna birds include White-bellied Bustard, Coqui Francolin, Temminck’s Courser, Dark Chanting Goshawk, Pygmy Falcon and Pangani Longclaw.
Interestingly, we have a few range-restricted targets during our time in the Serengeti, one of which is the Maasai Apalis, a specialist of whistling thorn thickets. This species only occurs here and extends marginally into neighboring Kenya. Other localized species include Red-throated Tit, Fischer’s Lovebird, Grey-crested Helmetshrike and Rufous-tailed Weaver, and we plan to invest a fair amount of time in finding these species. Additionally, we will search for two Tanzanian endemics here, Tanzanian Red-billed Hornbill and Grey-breasted Spurfowl. We will also have another chance to see the impressive Kori Bustard on the Serengeti plains.

Day 7 | Birding along the Ndutu Area and Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Our plan for today is to bird the Ndutu Area on the way to Ngorongoro Conservation area and a few additional targets. Some of the species we mayencounter here include the likes of Narina Trogon, Moustached Tinkerbird, Pallid and Scaly-throated Honeyguides, African Broadbill, Purple-throated Cuckooshrike, Black-ronted Bushshrike, Blue-mantled Crested Flycatcher, Brown-headed Apalis, Grey-capped Warbler, Black headed Mountain Greenbul, Brown Woodland Warbler, African Hill Babbler, Mbulu White-eye, Grey-headed Nigrita and Red-throated Twinspot.
Raptors such as Ayres’s Hawk-Eagle, Black Sparrowhawk and Augur Buzzard are worth watching out for and are often joined by Nyanza Swift overhead. The raucous calls of Schalow’s Turacos may lead us to sightings of these gorgeous birds.
After birding the trail, we will head over to lodge, a birdy establishment with a tranquil atmosphere. We will have lunch here before setting out to bird the property where species like Cinnamon-chested Bee-eater, Dusky Turtle Dove, White-tailed Blue Flycatcher, White-eyed Slaty Flycatcher, Green-headed Sunbird, Holub’s Golden Weaver, Black-and-white Mannikin, Southern Citril and Yellow-bellied Waxbill.

Day 8 | Birding in the the Ngorongoro Crater

Wewill dedicate the entire day to exploring the Ngorongoro Crater and the surrounding rim, which is sure to be one of the highlights of the trip. As we descend the slopes toward the crater floor, we stand a fair chance of connecting with Lions and, of course, their prey, largeherbivores. There are thousands of large mammals in this neatly intact caldera, including Black Rhinoceros and Hippopotamus, the latter of which can be seen in the water body in the crater’s center. Although we would consider ourselves lucky to encounter any of the smaller predators, we may see Serval, Bat-eared Fox, and African Golden Wolf, a species once thought to be closely related to the Eurasian Golden Jackal but now considered a closer relative of the Grey Wolf.
Wehope to adda large number of new species, including Lesser Flamingo, Grey Crowned Crane, Abdim’s Stork, Black-bellied and Kori Bustards, Pectoral-patch Cisticola, Rufous-tailed Weaver, Rosy-throated Longclaw and many more.
The combination of breathtaking scenery, herds of large African mammals, and exceptional avian diversity make this one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife experiences. The crater’s rim towers 2,000 feet (600 meters) above the plains in the center, spanning a diameter of 15 miles (24 kilometers). We will work forest patches along the rim for Golden-winged Sunbird, Brown-headed Apalis, and the unique Oriole Finch, in addition to Eastern Bronze-naped Pigeon, Dusky Turtle Dove, Grey-capped Warbler, Eastern Double-collared Sunbird, White-eyed Slaty Flycatcher, Brown-backed Woodpecker, Mbulu White-eye and Thick-billed Seedeater.

Day 9 | Birding around Lake Manyara and transfer to Arusha

After enjoying a leisurely breakfast, we plan to make our way towards Lake Manyara National Park, aiming to arrive at the park in the late morning. We can expect to get our lists off to a solid start, adding a variety of exciting species as we bird the diverse assemblage of habitats in the park. We will squeeze in a picnic lunch today, between our time spent birding the forests and open woodlands. Forested areas in the park may yield Narina Trogon, Grey Cuckooshrike, Mountain Wagtail, Crowned Hornbill and the huge Silvery-cheeked Hornbill. The open woodlands should produce a different suite of birds, including Spotted Palm Thrush, Red-and-yellow Barbet, White-bellied Tit, Banded Parisoma, Rufous Chatterer, Rufous-tailed Weaver, Steel-blue and Straw-tailed Whydahs and Purple Grenadier. Birds of prey are usually well represented in the park, and we will look out for Lappet-faced and White-backed Vultures, Bateleur, Crowned Eagle, African Hawk-Eagle, African Goshawk, Verreaux’s Eagle-Owl and the adorable Pearl-spotted Owlet.
If conditions are favorable, we will visit the park’s shallow alkaline lake, where flocks of Greater and Lesser Flamingos should be in attendance, accompanied by Great White Pelican, the aptly named Goliath Heron, and various other waterbirds. After what promises to be an exciting first full day out, we will move on toward Arusha for dinner and overnight at Kahawa House.
