Customizable Itinerary
Day 1
Karatu – Welcome to Africa
The dusty plains, the sense of space, and the roads of evocative orange are the journey that leads into the wilderness of Africa. Touch down into Tanzania, and the impressions turn to reverie, introducing you to a land that's mostly untouched by man. After landing at Kilimanjaro International, a micro flight takes you to Karatu, where a luxury camp offers views over a game-filled valley. There's time for a quick game drive into Lake Manyara, where lions climb trees and hippos grunt from the shallows. Exotic birds flutter past and huge troops of baboons scamper around beneath crumbling canyon walls. It's just a start, a chance to glimpse a few characters before the safari officially starts tomorrow.
