Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, you will drive towards the fertile crater highlands where the Iraqi people grow wheat, corn, and coffee. You will pass the Ngorongoro Crater before you reach the plains of the Serengeti National Park at around midday. The Serengeti is the largest park in Tanzania and has a diversity of habitats and landscapes including short grass plains, savannah, thick bush, swamps, mountains, and lakes. Bizarre rock formations called kopjes dot the grassy landscape where predators are often seen. Depending on the season, you will witness the migration of thousands of animals for which this park is famous. During the short rainy season in November and December, the herds move from the hills in the north to the plains in the south. During the longer rainy season from April to June, they return up north. Our overnight stay will be at Serengeti Wildebeest Camps in Serengeti National Park.

After a picnic lunch, you will continue your journey towards the Ngorongoro Crater. Once you have reached the crater rim, you will enjoy fantastic views of this 600 m deep collapsed volcano.

Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater
After an early breakfast, you will drive down the steep and narrow road that takes you into the crater. The slopes are forested but soon the landscape changes to savannah. Here, the wildlife is just breathtaking and with a little luck, you can observe the Big Five—lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard—in just a few hours. You should also see warthogs, wildebeests, zebras, hippos and some of the more than 500 bird species of the area. After a morning dedicated to game viewing and a picnic lunch, you will leave the crater in the early afternoon to drive back to Arusha, where you will arrive in the early evening.
