Today’s excitement builds as you enter the world’s most famous wildlife park, the Serengeti.

Covering 14,763 square kilometers, it challenges traditional notions of distance. The Serengeti is home to Africa’s largest concentration of plains animals. Keep an eye out for the "kopjes," massive granite rocks that rise from the grasslands, providing habitat for various plants and wildlife. During your game drive, a picnic lunch will be served. The day will conclude with a delicious meal and a restful night at your luxury tented camp.
