Ngorongoro Crater (Overnight at Central Serengeti)

After breakfast drive to the rim of Ngorongoro Crater for the crater game tour, with picnic lunch.

You have a full day to visit the Ngorongoro Crater, an ancient volcanic crater that is home to an extraordinary concentration of wildlife including a very dense population of lion and spotted hyena. By now children will be very accomplished ‘wildlife spotters’ and you are almost guaranteed to see all of the ‘big five’ (lion, rhino, leopard, elephant and buffalo).

The views are superb, from the first glimpse of the crater at ‘Heroes’ Point’, through the thick rain forest that covers its sides, down to the rich grassy plains that form its center.

After a long day of Safari, you will drive to your accommodation in Serengeti National Park for evening leisure and overnight.

Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, enjoy a full day in Serengeti, here you will have an option of either going back to the camp for hot lunch or you can take picnic lunch with you. Dinner and overnight at Camp.

The Central Serengeti offers superb game viewing all year round due to its abundance of resident animals. Specifically, the Seronera River Valley in the Central Serengeti is a ‘must see’ on every safari regardless of the specific month of travel. Game viewing in Central Serengeti is at its best during the dry season (June – November) as resident animals are more concentrated in the immediate area due to the lack of water on the plains. Resident herbivores include impala, buffalo, hippo, warthog, topi, and giraffe. Resident carnivores include lion and leopard.
