After chowing down the most important meal of the day, your guide will take you on an intriguing journey through the Serengeti National Park for the whole day.

The Serengeti, a sprawling expanse of untamed wilderness in Tanzania, stands as a testament to nature's grandeur and diversity. Its vast savannahs, punctuated by iconic acacia trees and rocky outcrops, provide a stage for one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on Earth "the Great Migration". Here, millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles traverse the plains in search of greener pastures, pursued by predators in a timeless dance of survival.

Ngorongoro Crater, often dubbed Africa's Eden, is a natural wonder nestled within Tanzania's northern circuit. This vast volcanic caldera, formed over two million years ago, now cradles a microcosm of diverse ecosystems teeming with wildlife. Renowned as one of the world's most concentrated wildlife habitats, the crater is home to the iconic Big Five, including the endangered black rhinoceros. As visitors descend into the crater's lush plains, they're greeted by a breathtaking panorama of grasslands, woodlands, and shimmering soda lakes.
