Serengeti National Park – Endless Plains and Unmatched Wildlife Encounters

Continue your safari with a journey into the legendary Serengeti, where open savannas and sweeping golden plains stretch as far as the eye can see. After checking into your lodge or camp and enjoying lunch, head out for an afternoon game drive to begin exploring this vast ecosystem. With its roaming lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and—depending on the season—the spectacular Great Migration, the Serengeti offers some of the most exciting wildlife viewing on earth.

Over the next two days, you can choose between full-day game drives with picnic lunches or a combination of morning and afternoon safaris with a midday rest back at the lodge. Each option allows you to take in different corners of the park, from predator-rich valleys to peaceful acacia woodlands and expansive grasslands dotted with wildlife. Your time in the Serengeti concludes with a scenic flight from the nearest airstrip back to Arusha, giving you one last unforgettable view of Tanzania’s untamed beauty.
