Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, you’ll set off for a full-day game drive in Serengeti National Park, with a picnic lunch along the way. Prepare to witness one of nature’s greatest spectacles—the annual migration of over a million wildebeest, driven by ancient instincts across the vast plains. As they journey through 40 km (25 miles) of crocodile-filled rivers and face fierce territorial battles, these herds embody the raw struggle for survival. The migration brings a dramatic surge in life, with more than 8,000 calves born each day. This epic 1,000 km (600-mile) odyssey is a powerful reminder of the unbroken cycle of life in the Serengeti.
