Tour Overview
This 14-day itinerary runs during January–March, June–October and 15–31 December 2027, timed around Tanzania's peak dry-season game viewing, when wildlife concentrates around permanent water sources and visibility is at its best. The route covers Moshi, Mkomazi National Park, Lake Chala and Materuni Village, with accommodation in well-appointed mid-range properties including Salinero Kilimanjaro Hotel, Mkomazi View Camp and Wademac Arusha Inn — a comfortable mid-range balance of quality and price.
Beyond the daily game drives, this specific departure includes a Materuni waterfalls hike and Chagga coffee tour, an optional sunrise hot-air balloon safari, a visit to Olduvai Gorge, cradle of mankind, a guided canoeing safari and a Mto wa Mbu cultural village walk and local lunch. Every day is run in a private 4x4 safari Land Cruiser with pop-up roof, alongside an experienced, English-speaking driver-guide for the full trip.
Departures run privately from Kilimanjaro International Airport, and the package covers park fees, VAT and the Tourism Development Levy. Group size is flexible — from a private couple's trip up to a full family or friends group, with an additional vehicle added for larger parties. Children aged 5–11 are welcome sharing with adults. Contact our safari consultants for a tailored 2027 quote for your preferred dates and room configuration.
