4 Days Tanzania Private Safari Itinerary
Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park
After breakfast, your private safari guide will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi. Following a short briefing, you will drive to Tarangire National Park for your first private game drive.
Explore the park’s baobab-dotted landscapes while searching for elephant herds, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, antelopes and many bird species. Because the vehicle is private, you can spend more time at interesting wildlife sightings and stop whenever you wish to take photographs.

Depending on the season, your guide may take you toward areas associated with the Great Wildebeest Migration. In the evening, proceed to your lodge or tented camp for dinner and overnight.
Day 3: Serengeti Private Game Drive to Ngorongoro
Wake up early for a private morning game drive in Serengeti National Park. Morning hours are often excellent for observing predators and other animals before the temperature rises.

Best Time for a 4 Days Tanzania Private Safari
This private Tanzania safari can be enjoyed throughout the year. The best period depends on the wildlife experience, landscape and weather conditions you prefer.
The dry season from June to October generally offers excellent wildlife viewing because animals gather near rivers and permanent water sources. Roads are usually drier, and the vegetation is less dense.
From January to March, the southern Serengeti and Ndutu region become important for the wildebeest calving season. This period may offer exciting predator activity and large concentrations of animals.
The green season from November to May offers lush scenery, fewer visitors, excellent birdwatching and attractive photography conditions. Rainfall can occur, but wildlife viewing remains rewarding.
