Day 4
Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
The entirety of today is dedicated to exploring the Serengeti through exhilarating game drives. Renowned for its vast array of wildlife, including impala, buffalo, crocodiles, and hippos, the Serengeti is most famous for its remarkable migrating herds of zebra, antelope, and wildebeest. The trajectory of these animals' journey is dictated by rainfall patterns, leading them from the woodland and hilly northern regions to the expansive southern grasslands between November and December. As the longer rainy season sets in from April to June, they migrate back northward. Alongside witnessing the awe-inspiring migration, there's also the chance to encounter resident predators such as leopards, cheetahs, and lions, each playing their vital role in the circle of life. Following an unforgettable day of exploration, we'll retreat to our meticulously chosen partner tented camp, where we can unwind, savor dinner, and rest under the vast expanse of the starlit sky.
