Masai Mara to Serengeti
We will initiate the day with an early morning game drive in Masai Mara while driving out of the national reserve. After border formalities, we'll drive to the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. It will be a long day of driving but the game drives going in and out of the parks can be surprisingly incredible.
However, we always recommend flying from one park to the other so that you can have more time to go on safari. Alternatively, you can add an extra day to visit Lake Victoria, that's halfway between the two parks.
