Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater
Today is devoted entirely to exploring the wonders of the Serengeti on immersive game drives.
Your guide will tailor the day’s route based on the movements of the great migratory herds, ensuring the best chances to witness one of nature’s most awe-inspiring spectacles.

These patterns vary each year, but your experienced guide will track their path to put you in the heart of the action.
As the wildebeests and zebras move in search of fresh grazing, predators such as lions, cheetahs, and leopards—often seen lounging in the branches of acacia trees—follow closely behind, creating unforgettable wildlife encounters.
