The Central Serengeti, particularly Seronera, is the heart of the park, with year-round wildlife sightings due to its reliable water sources.

Its birdlife is equally impressive, featuring vultures, hornbills, and various raptors. This game drive allows you to observe the delicate balance of predator and prey in their natural habitat.

As the sun rises, predators like lions, leopards, and cheetahs hunt in the cool morning air. Herds of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles graze nearby, while elephants and giraffes move gracefully through the woodlands. The birdlife is also vibrant, with eagles and vultures soaring above. Enjoy lunch at a scenic spot, possibly near the Seronera River, home to hippos, crocodiles, and often-leopards resting on tree branches.

The Great Migration is a sight to behold: millions of wildebeest, each driven by an ancient instinct, embark on a journey of survival. Over the course of three intense weeks, the herds engage in territorial battles, mating, and the fight for survival, as they navigate crocodile-filled waters during their northward trek. This journey leads to a temporary population boom, with over 8,000 calves born daily, before the herds set off on their next 1,000 km (600 miles) journey.
