Day 1

Arusha - Central Serengeti National Park

Arusha - Central Serengeti National Park

Your three-day Tanzania safari begins with a pick-up from the airport or your hotel, followed by a drive to Serengeti National Park, home to the magnificent “Big Five:” elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, and leopard.

You may also spot one of Africa’s most graceful animals – the impala. The Serengeti ecosystem supports the greatest remaining concentration of plains game in Africa, making it one of the most famous safari destinations. It has a particularly dense population of lions and leopards.

The central Serengeti, known as the Seronera area, is one of the park’s richest wildlife habitats. This is due to the presence of the Seronera River, a vital water source that attracts numerous animal species, including many lion prides that flourish in the region.

The Serengeti’s “kopjes”—massive granite boulders rising from the grasslands—provide shelter to a wide variety of plant and animal life.

Dinner and your overnight stay will be at the camp.
