Arusha to Serengeti National Park

Arusha to Serengeti National Park

Your journey begins with an early morning departure from Arusha, heading toward Serengeti National Park.

Upon entering Serengeti, the safari truly begins. This first game drive is a romantic introduction to Tanzania’s most iconic park, where wildlife is not searched for, it is simply everywhere. Expect to see large herds of zebra, wildebeest, giraffes, elephants, Lions, cheetah, countless gazelles and more.

By late afternoon, you arrive at your camp/lodge and enjoy a warm dinner under the African sky. The night in Serengeti is peaceful and unforgettable, filled with distant roars and the feeling of being deep inside nature’s greatest theatre.

As you approach Ndutu, the scenery becomes more open, dotted with acacia trees and seasonal lakes. This is where the magic of the calving season comes alive. Between late December, January, February and March, thousands of wildebeest gather here to give birth, creating one of the most dramatic wildlife spectacles on earth.

Expect to witness huge herds stretching to the horizon, newborn calves taking their first steps, and predators such as lions, hyenas, cheetahs, and leopards taking advantage of the abundance.
