Arusha Town to Serengeti National Park
The name Serengeti originates from the Maasai word Siringitu and means endless plains. You will see why the Maasai gave this region this name as the grassland savannah stretches to the horizon in the south and is only interrupted by the so-called kopjes. These kopjes are bizarre rock formations formed by the weathering of granite outcrops. The plains are the perfect hunting grounds for leopards and other big cats. You will have a good chance to view these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat through the open roof of the vehicle. In the afternoon, you will reach your destination for the day, the Seronera Valley in the Central Serengeti area. You will camp for the night and stay in safari styled tents enjoying a good meal in the middle of the African bush.
