Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
Program: The entire day is set aside for more game drives in the Serengeti National Park while carrying lunch boxes. The Serengeti is the habitat for an abundance of wildlife, such as wildebeest, elephants, impalas, buffalo, crocodiles, and hippos. However, it is more well-known for its great migrating herds of zebras and wildebeest. The animals’ trek is determined by the rainfall and varies from year to year.
In November and December, the animals move from the northern region, dominated by woodlands and hills, to the grassy plains of the south (Ndutu Area). During the longer rainy season from April to June, they return to the north. Apart from the migrating herds, you might have the chance to see predators, such as leopards, cheetahs, and lions, always lurking close by.
