After breakfast, you will drive to the Serengeti National Park, enjoying the beautiful high-laying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area along the way. Leaving the highlands behind, you will enter the heart of wild Africa, the Serengeti National Park, with its endless plains rolling into the distance, as far as the eye can see. You will head to the central area of the park, known as the Seronera, one of the richest wildlife habitats. In this part of the park, you will visit the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well-representative of most of the Serengeti's species.
