Serengeti National park
Serengeti National park
This morning, you'll embark on an early game drive in the Serengeti. Witness a spectacle where a million wildebeest, each guided by an ancient instinct, follow a timeless rhythm. Over three frenzied weeks, they engage in territorial battles and mating rituals, surviving through the principle of natural selection. They undertake a perilous journey, crossing 40km of crocodile-infested waters as part of their annual migration northward. This journey serves to replenish their species, with over 8,000 calves born daily during this brief period of population explosion. Once the pilgrimage concludes, spanning 1,000 km, the cycle begins anew.
