In addition to its geological wonders, it is well-known as a nature reserve that harbors some of the largest concentrations of large mammals on the African continent. It is an adventure to drive down into the crater, and once you get to the crater bottom, you will soon be surrounded by over 500 different species of birds, zebras, gazelles, and wildebeest. The best chance of viewing the endangered black rhino, which occasionally appears in the open grass, is in the crater.

Drive to the Serengeti National Park after a full meal. Overnight and dinner at Embalakai Camp.

Day 4

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

Schedule of the day: You will Embark for your first wildlife drive in Serengeti National Park following breakfast. There is nothing like the Serengeti. It is well-known for having expansive, open grasslands that make for great wildlife viewing opportunities. One of the world's oldest ecosystems, the Serengeti is Tanzania's oldest national park. For millions of years, its vegetation and environment have mostly stayed unchanged. Although the Serengeti is home to a wide variety of wildlife, its yearly great migration is arguably its most well-known feature. Numerous antelopes and zebras accompany the vast numbers of wildebeest, which travel in a yearly rhythm in search of new grass. Every year, the patterns of rainfall determine the exact time of the Migration.

You will go to your tented partner camp for dinner and an overnight stay following lunch and a long game drive.

Main Destination:
Central Serengeti National Park
Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)
High Season July to March (The Seronera area is crowded)
Best Weather June to October (Little to no rainfall)
