Day 1  Depart USA
Depart the USA on your overnight flight to London.

Day 2  Enroute
Arrive in London early this morning where the day is at leisure until your flight to Johannesburg departs early this evening.

Day 3  Arrive Johannesburg
Welcome to South Africa. Arrive in Johannesburg this morning. After clearing customs and immigration, you will be met and transferred to a nearby hotel. The remainder of the evening is at leisure.
Protea Hotel Balalaika Sandton

Day 4  Johannesburg-Victoria Falls (B)
A short flight takes you to Victoria Falls and your lodge set just 4 kilometers from Victoria Falls. Later, a sunset cruise along the Zambezi is a perfect way to end the day.
Day 5  Victoria Falls (B)
Start the day with a tour of spectacular Victoria Falls. While the sheer size (5544 feet across and over 300 feet high) of the Falls is immediately impressive, it is perhaps the sight and sound of more than 150 million gallons of water per minute crashing to the gorge below that is the most unforgettable. Wear a rain slicker today, as the resulting spray forms a “cloud of smoke” that can be seen more than 30 miles away! Later this evening, enjoy dinner in The Boma and sample some of Zimbabwe's local dishes.
Day 6  Victoria Falls-Johannesburg (B)
Late this morning fly back to Johannesburg where the remainder of the day is at leisure.
Protea Hotel Balalaika Sandton

Day 7  Johannesburg-Nairobi (BD)
Your flight takes you to Nairobi today. Later this evening, fun awaits at the Carnivore Restaurant where you have the opportunity to sample different types of meat like ostrich, crocodile and more!
Day 8  Nairobi-Arusha-Lake Manyara (BLD)
Today, your drive takes you south, across the border into Tanzania. Stop in Arusha for lunch before continuing across the Masai Steppe into the Great Rift Valley and Lake Manyara. The views are particularly breathtaking here and your lodge’s location provides stunning panoramas of the Valley.
Day 9  Lake Manyara-Serengeti (BLD)
Spend the morning on a game drive in Lake Manyara National Park. Thanks to the wide variety of habitats found inside the park, game is plentiful. Be on the lookout for the graceful impala, the mischievous baboon and much more. Return to the lodge for lunch and then continue your drive to Tanzania’s most famous park, the Serengeti.
Day 10  Serengeti (BLD)
Rise early this morning to enjoy a game drive as the animals begin to stir across the expansive plains of the Serengeti. You’ll have time to relax at your lodge during the heat of the day before heading out on an afternoon game drive. Game is abundant in the Serengeti: wildebeest, zebra, buffalo and impala all dot the horizon. The predators are found here as well and you will almost certainly spot lion and cheetah during your stay.
Day 11  Serengeti-Ngorongoro (BLD)
Your first stop today is at Olduvai Gorge, site of some of the most significant archaeological excavations. After stopping for a picnic lunch, continue on to the Ngorongoro Conservation area where the remainder of the day is at leisure.
Day 12  Ngorongoro (BLD)
A highlight awaits as you descend 2,000 feet to the Crater floor for a morning game drive. The Crater’s wide variety of habitats allows it to support abundant wildlife. Birdlife is equally spectacular - be sure to have your binoculars ready.
Day 13  Ngorongoro-Tarangire
Your journey takes you to Tarangire today. Thanks to the permanent water supply of the Tarangire River, the park is a dry-season haven for huge herds of wildebeest, zebra and other plains game. During your afternoon game drive, enjoy the vistas dotted with majestic baobab trees.
Day 14  Tarangire-Nairobi-Depart (BLD)
Return to Arusha where you stop for lunch before continuing by road to Nairobi. You'll have time to relax and freshen up in our partner's lounge prior to leaving for the airport. Later this evening, depart on the overnight flight to London.
Club Lounge

Day 15  Arrive USA
Arrive in London early this morning and connect to your homeward bound flight.
