Your safari begins in Arusha with a morning transfer to Arusha Airport for your flight to Northern Serengeti. Enjoy spectacular views as you fly over Tanzania before landing at Kogatende Airstrip, where your private guide will be waiting.

Your safari begins immediately with a game drive through the northern Serengeti. This remarkable region is known for its dramatic scenery, abundant wildlife and the Great Migration during the appropriate season.

Depending on your flight arrival time, enjoy lunch in the wilderness before continuing your afternoon game drive. Your guide will follow current wildlife activity, with opportunities to encounter lions, elephants, giraffes, buffalo, cheetahs and other wildlife.

As the afternoon light settles across the plains, continue to your mid-range camp for dinner and your first night surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.

Day 2

Full-Day Northern Serengeti

Full-Day Northern Serengeti

Today is dedicated entirely to exploring Northern Serengeti at a relaxed pace. After breakfast, set out with your private guide for a full-day game drive across this spectacular wilderness.

During migration season, the Mara River area can offer extraordinary wildlife encounters as wildebeest and zebra move through the northern Serengeti. River crossings are naturally unpredictable, but the surrounding landscapes and resident wildlife make this region rewarding throughout the year.

Enjoy a picnic lunch in the wilderness before continuing your exploration. With a private vehicle, you have the flexibility to spend more time at memorable sightings, photograph the scenery or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the plains.

Return to your camp in the evening for dinner and a relaxing night beneath the Serengeti sky.

Northern to Central Serengeti

After breakfast, begin your journey south from Northern Serengeti toward Central Serengeti. This is not simply a transfer day; your private vehicle remains part of the safari, allowing you to enjoy game viewing along the way.

Travel through changing landscapes as the remote northern plains gradually give way to the open grasslands and rocky kopjes of Central Serengeti. Your guide will choose the route according to wildlife activity and road conditions, creating opportunities for additional sightings along the journey.

Enjoy a picnic lunch in the Serengeti before continuing toward your accommodation. Arrive in Central Serengeti during the afternoon and settle into camp or lodge.

Explore the crater with your private guide, searching for lions, elephants, buffalo, hippos, hyenas and, with luck, the endangered black rhino. Enjoy a picnic lunch during your crater experience before ascending the crater walls.
