Serengeti National Park has been categorized as a World Heritage Site under UNESCO. The great migration is a natural cycle during which millions of wildebeest, zebras, and Thompson's gazelles cross the river from Serengeti to Masai Mara in Kenya. It offers incredible natural views as a 4x4 Land Cruiser is parked along the river to witness this spectacular natural event while facing the formidable challenge of Nile crocodiles. During this time, the predators migrate to the north for their last feast.

A packed lunch will be enjoyed at the picnic site inside the park around the afternoon every day.
