Day 4

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

The entire day is dedicated to thrilling game drives in Serengeti National Park, one of Africa’s most renowned wildlife sanctuaries. The Serengeti is home to an incredible variety of animals, including impalas, buffaloes, crocodiles, and hippos. It is especially famous for the spectacular annual migration of vast herds of zebras and wildebeest.

The timing of this great migration depends largely on rainfall patterns, which vary from year to year. Typically, in November and December, the herds move from the northern regions characterized by woodlands and rolling hills down to the lush grassy plains of the south. During the long rainy season, from April to June, they make their way back north.

In addition to the migrating herds, you may also spot formidable predators such as leopards, cheetahs, and lions, often seen stealthily observing their surroundings.

After an unforgettable day exploring the wilderness, you will return to your accommodation for dinner and a restful overnight stay.
