Full-day Game Drives in Serengeti National Park

The sound of Africa arouses you from sleep and you will freshen up and go to the main area for breakfast. After breakfast, your driver-guide will pick you up and drive to the park for a full-day game drive. If you love animals, then Serengeti is a good place to be. Here, you will find the real Mufasa, Nala, Simba, and Scars, thanks to the Disney film “The Lion King”. There are around 3,000 lions living in the Serengeti ecosystem. They are relatively easy to spot not just because of their numbers but also because they like to loll about for hours each day under the trees. In fact, lions can move around about 20 hours a day. The Serengeti also has bush elephants, Cape buffaloes, and birds like the kori bustard, fischer’s, and many others. As the afternoon begins to end, you will make your way toward your lodge for relaxation, dinner, and an overnight stay.

Game Drives in Ngorongoro Crater

Today you will drive to the 8th Wonder of the World for a full-day game drive spotting wildlife. Ngorongoro Crater known as “Africa’s Garden of Eden is a well-preserved natural phenomenon that has become a sanctuary for all kinds of wildlife. It is 190km from Arusha town. First, there was a volcanic caldera full of grassland, forest, and swamp, a settling jaw of beauty. Secondly, the permanent water of the crater floor supports a resident population of more than 25,000 large mammals. Here you will find many reasons you chose to come to safari: leopards, lions, black rhinos, hyenas, wallowing zebras, waterbucks, baboons and many others. Soon after ascending from the crater floor, you will be transferred to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your flight back home. Please book the flight that departs at 9:00 p.m. or for domestic one that departs at 8:00 p.m. so you can have enough time for game viewing on the crater floor.
