This morning, we'll embark on an unforgettable anthropological experience, meeting the hunter and gatherer tribes of the Hadzabe. This tribe lives in the Lake Eyasi area, maintaining a lifestyle reminiscent of early human life. The males of the tribe move with the herds of cattle throughout the year, engaging in hunting with the approval of the authorities and collecting from nature whatever it has to offer. We will get to know the Hadzabe and their way of life. From here, we will also get to know the Datoga people, nomadic tribes where women are known to tattoo their faces and live together with the other women of the chief in one hut.

Days 3-4 | Lake Manyara - Serengeti

This morning we will leave the Lake Manyara area and enter the famous nature reserve: Serengeti. During the days of the tour in the Serengeti Reserve, we will go on "Game Drives" - safari trips in the vast spaces of this fascinating reserve where we will see the fascinating wildlife of this captivating reserve. If we are lucky, we will see herds of elephants coming out with the first light to wash in one of the rivers in the savannah. We might also see the hippos flipping on their backs to dry their oily skin. We will continue to observe and maybe even see a giant herd of wildebeests crossing the vast plains of the savannah in a dramatic procession or lions lying in the sun, waiting for the fitness hour to catch the next prey. It is unclear what we will see, and that is the beauty of the safari, but in any case, an unforgettable and primal experience is expected.

Day 5 | Serengeti Reserve – Olduvai Gorge – Masaai Village – Ngorongoro Crater

This morning we will wake up early and go on the last safari round in the amazing nature reserve of Serengeti, bidding farewell to the wonderful wildlife that was our heritage in recent days and heading out of the reserve. An eastward journey will take us to Olduvai Gorge, where we will learn about the great research that has been conducted here for years and the remains of ancient man discovered in the region. We will visit the local museum and also get to know the unique wildlife in the region and the nomadic migration in ancient times. After the visit to the gorge, we will continue to the Masaai village, where we will get to know the life of the tribe that lives here until this day in huts made of clay and dung and manage a semi-nomadic lifestyle right next to the many wild animals we have met in the days of the tour in the Serengeti. In the afternoon we will settle in the lodge located on the edge of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, which we will explore tomorrow.

Day 6 | Ngorongoro Crater - Zanzibar

This morning, with the first light, we will descend to the great crater: Ngorongoro Crater was created as a result of the collapse of the Ngorongoro Volcano, which created a caldera containing a relatively small geographical area with all the wildlife of East Africa: giraffes, zebras, lions, wildebeests, and more in real proximity to our safari vehicle. (It is possible that this tour will take place on the 5th day of the trip).
