Day 1

Flight from Dar es Salaam to Central Serengeti National Park

Flight from Dar es Salaam to Central Serengeti National Park

Program: You'll take a local flight from Dar Es Salaam Airport and fly directly to Seronera Airstrip inside the Central Serengeti National Park. Upon your arrival at Seronera Airstrip, you'll meet our safari guide from the office, who will pick you up and start enjoying a game drive inside the Serengeti Park. In the afternoon, you'll enjoy lunch inside the park. Once you finish the game drive, we will transfer you to the camp where you'll stop for relaxation, dinner, and an overnight stay.

Although the Serengeti is home to a wide variety of animals, including hippo, buffalo, crocodiles, and impala, it is most known for its massive migratory herds of antelope (half a million), wildebeest (one and a half million), and zebras (two hundred and fifty thousand). Rainfall determines the animals' journey, which changes every year. In addition to the migratory herds, you might witness lions, cheetahs, and leopards.

Activities of the Day: 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)

Central Serengeti is renowned for its abundant resident wildlife, offering excellent opportunities to spot lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, and numerous antelope species. The Seronera Valley, in particular, is famous for its high concentration of big cats and year-round game viewing.

Central Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater

Program: You'll get up early to have breakfast before heading out for a game drive transfer to Ngorongoro Crater. The drive might take around 2 hours, but along the way, you'll make some stops to spot animals.

The main attraction of Ngorongoro is its deep, volcanic crater, the world's largest unflooded and unbroken caldera. It's about 20 kilometers across, 600 meters deep, and covers 300 square kilometers, an awe-inspiring natural wonder. You'll explore Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, famous for its black rhinos, flamingos, hippos, and other waterbirds.

You'll enjoy a full-day game drive in the crater. In the evening, you'll drive back to the lodge for dinner and to spend the night. Today, we recommend leaving early so you can take advantage of the lodge facilities, including the swimming pool and more.

The game drive will end at 4:00 pm. You will then drive to your lodge, which is 45 minutes from the Ngorongoro gate.
