Day 3

Serengeti full Game Drive

Serengeti full Game Drive

The entire day is dedicated to game viewing in the Serengeti National Park. The
areas that you visit will depend upon where the migrating herds are. Predators
usually follow closely behind the trekking animals and include lions, leopards (in the
acacia trees) and cheetahs. During the short rainy season in November and
In December the herds move from the hills in the north to the plains in the south.
During the longer rainy season from April to June, they return up north. As the
migration is completely dependent on the yearly rainfalls, the location of the herds
may vary from year to year, but your guide will know where to locate the animals and
where to see them best.
