We will pick you up from your accommodation and drop you at Arusha Airport. You'll fly to Serengeti National Park. This specific tour starts with a flight from Arusha. If you fly from a different location, we can amend the price for the flight.

The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands, which allow excellent wildlife sightings. Its climate and vegetation have remained untouched for millions of years. While the Serengeti boasts abundant wildlife, it is best known for its annual great migration. Vast numbers of wildebeest, accompanied by large numbers of zebras and antelopes, move annually across the land, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The precise timing of the migration depends upon the rainfall patterns each year.
After lunch and an extensive game drive, you will head for our luxury partner lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
