soul & savanna | Overview
day 1-2
Day 1 - 2 | Arusha
The Tanzanian journey opens in Arusha, the vibrant gateway to the northern safari circuit. Arrive in Arusha and step into a private sanctuary Set within the prestigious Kilimanjaro Golf & Wildlife Estate. Nestled between the dramatic contours of Mount Meru and the distant snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro, the surrounding landscape combines manicured fairways with indigenous acacia bushveld where harmless wildlife roams freely. Two days here are dedicated to slow living, gentle walks through leafy estate paths, private outdoor dining, spa treatment, and golf before venturing into the remote wilderness.
day 1-2 | accommodation
Stay - siringit villa
Situated directly within the Kilimanjaro Golf & Wildlife Estate, Siringit Villa is an exclusive six-bedroom private retreat defined by modern elegance and warm, intimate hospitality.
The villa serves as a private sanctuary featuring expansive shaded verandas, lush private gardens, and a secluded swimming pool overlooking the green fairways. With private chef-prepared culinary offerings using fresh local ingredients, personalized wellness spaces, and quiet indoor-outdoor living areas, the property provides the perfect environment to decompress and reset in complete tranquility.
day 3-4
Day 3 - 4 | Ngorongoro Crater
Journeying west, the landscape ascends into the cool, cloud-forested highlands of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Crisp mountain air and ancient volcanic soil set an invigorating atmosphere along the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera. Descending 600 meters down the steep volcanic walls leads to a self-contained natural sanctuary where lush grasslands, soda lakes, and acacia groves support an incredible density of wildlife. A full day spent tracking black rhinos, lion prides, and vast herds of plains game across the crater floor offers a profound connection to Africa’s primordial history.
day 3-4 | accommodation
Stay - Meliá Ngorongoro Lodge
Perched dramatically on the eastern rim of the caldera, Meliá Ngorongoro Lodge seamlessly integrates modern luxury with deep respect for traditional Maasai heritage.
The lodge features contemporary suites with floor-to-ceiling glass doors opening onto private balconies that face directly into the abyss of the crater. Guests can unwind at the signature Spa, offering restorative body treatments inspired by local African botanicals, relax beside an infinity pool spilling toward the rim, or enjoy bright cuisine prepared with organic produce.
day 5-9
Day 5 - 6 | Singita Grumeti Reserve
SABORA - Fly into the private 350,000-acre Singita Grumeti Reserve, an extraordinary conservation area forming part of the Serengeti's western corridor. Here, the short-grass plains stretch endlessly to the horizon, creating a profound sense of open space and absolute stillness. Because Grumeti is completely private, game drives operate off-road and entirely free of public crowds, allowing for intimate tracking of resident big cats, migratory herds, and cheetahs hunting across open terrain. The absolute silence of the plains at dawn and dusk fosters a deep mental reset aligned with the natural rhythms of the wild.
day 5-6 | accommodation
Stay - Singita Sabora Tented Camp
Set at ground level directly on the sweeping short-grass plains, Singita Sabora Tented Camp reinterprets classic safari romance with a contemporary, wellness-driven design.
The camp features state-of-the-art luxury canvas suites equipped with private outdoor meditation decks, daybeds for mindful rest, private plunge pools, and open-air fitness decks. Guests enjoy tailored holistic spa treatments, intuitive service, and curated menus focused on fresh, nourishing ingredients enjoyed under the open African sky.
day 7-9 | accommodation
Day 7 - 9 | Singita Grumeti Reserve
FARU FARU - Transitioning across the private reserve toward the riverine corridor, the landscape softens into riverine forests, granite kopjes, and natural waterholes along the banks of the Grumeti River. Three full days in this dynamic ecosystem encourage a fluid balance of restorative leisure and wild exploration. Morning game drives and guided sensory bush walks reveal riverfront wildlife, dense birdlife, and quiet thickets, while golden afternoons invite contemplative contemplation of the river from elevated vantage points beneath giant shade trees.
day 7-9 | accommodation
Stay - Singita Faru Faru Lodge
Built into a subtle riverbank slope overlooking a natural waterhole and the Grumeti River, Singita Faru Faru Lodge blends organic shapes, stone, and timber into a light-filled contemporary retreat.
The lodge features glass-fronted suites equipped with deep soaking tubs, dual infinity pools designed for quiet afternoon swims, and dedicated wellness treatment rooms. Its peaceful design brings the sight and sound of nature directly into the living spaces, creating an elevated sanctuary for total rejuvenation.
