Tarangire National Park - Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, you'll begin your journey to the world-famous Serengeti with an en-route game drive. Enjoy a picnic lunch in the vehicle as you travel through breathtaking scenery, including panoramic views of the Great Rift Valley and a glimpse into the majestic Ngorongoro Crater. You’ll arrive in the Serengeti around 3:00 PM, just in time for an evening game drive in the heart of the park, where golden light and roaming wildlife create a truly unforgettable safari moment. Afterward, you’ll head to your camp for dinner and an overnight stay under the stars.

The Serengeti is renowned for its vast, open plains and the legendary Great Migration—an awe-inspiring movement of over 1.5 million wildebeest, accompanied by zebras, Grant’s and Thomson’s gazelles, eland, and impala. Following the rains and fresh grazing, predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas follow the herds, creating one of the most dramatic wildlife spectacles on Earth.
