For a real treat, take an optional sunrise balloon ride over the plains.Day 6 Ngorongoro Crater Descend into the giant volcanic crater, Ngorongoro, to search for its abundant wildlife. Home to some 30,000 animals including lions and the endangered black rhino, the Ngorongoro crater floor offers excellent game viewing all year round.Day 7 Marangu Visit the new school at the Amani Children's Home, an Intrepid Foundation-supported project that houses and educates street kids. Stay in the village of Marangu overnight.Days 8-9 Usambara Mountains Take a walking tour of Mshiri village and get firsthand insight into the daily lives of the Chagga people.

This is the ideal base for optional hikes and guided walks.Day 10 Dar es Salaam Set up camp at a beach on the outskirts of Tanzania's tropical port city, Dar es Salaam.Days 11-14 Zanzibar Jump on a ferry to discover Africa's famed 'Spice Island' Zanzibar. Marvel at the eclectic architecture along the twisting, cobbled streets of Stone Town, the old sector of the capital city of Zanzibar.

There are plenty of opportunities to swim, snorkel and dive or just take it easy in the shade of a coconut palm.
