Day 2

Serengeti national park

Serengeti national park

We then head towards the Serengeti. After a few hours of driving, we will arrive at the Serengeti gate. After lunch, we start our game drive, covering this beautiful park for the remainder of the afternoon.

Known for both its forest landscapes and the endless plains of savannah, the park is famous for its migration involving about 1.5 million herbivores and predators moving across the plains in search of water. You’ll also have the opportunity to spend time around Lake Ndutu, known for being home to six species of Big Cats: lion, leopard, cheetah, caracal, serval, and African wildcat.

Your home for nights is Serengeti wild camp perfectly situated within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, with convenient access to the crater, and on the south side of Lake Ndutu, just outside the Serengeti National Park. This is truly the best of both worlds!

Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, you will drive straight to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and stop at a viewing point. After that, you will descend into the 600m-deep crater. The Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtakingly beautiful setting and the best place in East Africa to see the Big Five. It is one of the world's most beautiful natural wildlife safari sites and an exceptional place to interact with people from the Maasai community. On reaching the crater's edge, the 20km-diameter caldera opens up before you in all its glory, and you will descend into the crater on an adventurous trail.

This World Heritage Site is seasonally home to over 25,000 animals, including a wide range of bird species, hyenas, and the endangered black rhinos. We will serve you a hot lunch at a picnic spot near the hippo pool. After lunch, we will drive you straight to Highview where you will have dinner and an overnight stay.
