3-tägiges Tansania-Abenteuer: VON DEN URSPRÜNGEN DER MENSCHHEIT BIS ZU SAFARIS IN HIMMELHÖHE

Your professional safari guide will pick you up from your accommodation in Arusha. Drive towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA). This scenic drive takes you through rural Tanzanian villages and offers glimpses of Mount Meru on a clear day. Midday: Enjoy a packed lunch at a designated picnic spot within the NCA, perhaps with views of the Rift Valley or on the way to Olduvai. Early Afternoon: Visit the Olduvai Gorge Museum, often referred to as the "Cradle of Mankind. Explore the museum exhibits showcasing incredible fossil discoveries (hominin remains, ancient tools) by the Leakey family. Gain insights into human evolution through informative displays and expert presentations. View the gorge itself from a viewpoint, imagining the ancient landscapes where our ancestors roamed. Late Afternoon: Drive to the vicinity of Laetoli. While the actual 3.6-million-year-old hominin footprints are re-covered for preservation, you will typically see excellent replicas at the Olduvai Gorge Museum. Your guide will explain the significance of this site and how the footprints were discovered and preserved. Shifting Sands: Visit the unique Shifting Sands, crescent-shaped black dunes made of volcanic ash from Oldoinyo Lengai. Witness this geological phenomenon as the dunes slowly migrate across the plains. It's a great photo opportunity. Evening: Proceed from Olduvai Gorge into the Serengeti National Park (Central Serengeti). Check into your pre-booked lodge in the Serengeti. Enjoy dinner and prepare for an early start tomorrow.
