Central Serengeti NP
After breakfast, you will take a morning drive to the Northern Serengeti with a packed lunch. The Northern Serengeti offers a chance to escape the crowds. This region – wedged between the Central Serengeti and Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve to the north – is remote and relatively inaccessible, which means it sees fewer visitors. Travelers who make it to this corner of the Serengeti will be rewarded with gorgeous landscapes of green rolling hills, granite outcrops, acacia woodlands dotting open savannahs, and incredible wildlife.
This sector of the park is also home to the greatest concentration of elephants in the Serengeti, as well as good numbers of lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas and diverse resident animals such as giraffe, topi, eland, and hippo. After the game drive, we will return to Tanzania Bush Camps Central Serengeti for the last night in Serengeti NP.

After breakfast in Tanzania Bush Camp Central Serengeti, we will drive back to Karatu via Olduvai George. We will have an opportunity to visit Olduvai George and learn about the earliest evidence of human ancestors. Paleoanthropologists have found hundreds of fossilized bones and stone tools in the area dating back millions of years, leading them to conclude that humans evolved in Africa. We will then drive to Karatu via Ngorongoro.

Lake Eyasi Trip
After breakfast at Eileen's Tree's Inn Karatu Lodge, we drive to Lake Eyasi to visit the Hadzabe community, also known as the Bushmen. We will also visit the Datoga community, which consists of blacksmiths. In the afternoon, we will drive to Mto Wa Mbu and spend the night at Ngare Lodge.
The Hadzabe community is a group of hunter-gatherers related to the South Kalahari Bushmen. Due to a lack of food, their population has reduced to only about 1,500 people as of 2011. They survive by hunting small game with homemade bows and arrows, such as small birds, bush babies, and squirrels.
The Datoga community lives in Datoga village, which a man and his 8 wives own. The men build huts from wooden sticks while the women seal them with dung. A man's ability to offer cattle as a dowry determines the number of wives he can have. The Datoga people have unique clothing and traditions, which distinguish them from the Maasai and Hadzabe communities.
