Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
After an early breakfast, you will depart towards the most famous national park in the world, the Serengeti. The drive itself, although long, is spectacular. This will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time. As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in the local language, "endless plains".
The park has 6,900 sq miles (18,000 sq km), and for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon, defying your senses and perception of distances. It is the home to the great migration of 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras and all kinds of antelopes. As for the big cats and large predators, it's the place of choice to look out for lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, with many television scenes like the famous river crossings, having been filmed in this park.

After the chills and thrills of the day, you will have a picnic lunch by the famous hippo pool. Thereafter, you will drive back to your hotel in Arusha or to the airport to catch your flight.
