Day 1

Travel to Central Serengeti National Park

Travel to Central Serengeti National Park

Your drive from Arusha to the Serengeti will take you through vast green hills and across flat lowlands. The land stretches to the horizon in all directions, interrupted only by small dusty towns and earthy, round Maasai huts. Once you’ve crossed into the Serengeti, you’ll be on a game drive as you make your way toward camp.

The southern section of the park is covered with flat or gently rolling grasslands and occasionally dotted with rock kopjes, home to good populations of resident game. Big cats love to have a good vantage point and the kopjes provide that. Massive herds of wildebeest call this southern section home when they’re birthing before moving farther north. The Serengeti is home to a variety of landscapes, and what’s around you will depend on where you’re staying in the park.

Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

Today, you will continue your African safari experience to one of the country’s biggest draws - the Serengeti National Park. The endless plains and abundant wildlife that call the Serengeti home are unsurpassed. The wildebeest migration, with more than a million wildebeest, is probably the highlight of the Serengeti. It is a true spectacle and impressive to watch millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles thunder across the endless plains of the Serengeti.

With your private guide, you will look for the herds across the plains. Apart from the migratory animals, you will also see many other animals, like lions, cheetahs, leopards, and many more. Expect to be impressed by the natural beauty of Africa’s most famous park.

Ngorongoro Crater

In the morning, you will start descending into the crater. This collapsed volcano is the main feature of the area and creates a unique ecosystem with a wide variety of vegetation. Enjoy the beautiful colors of the landscape and the diversity of animals.

The crater is home to the highest concentration of wildlife in Africa, including elephants, lions, buffaloes, hippos, and even rare black rhinos. It is one of the best places to spot all of the Big Five. The views from the crater rim over the crater floor are incredible. Because of its natural beauty, the Ngorongoro Crater was chosen as one of Africa’s Seven Natural Wonders.
