The baobab-studded landscape makes the experience even more unique. At midday, enjoy a packed lunch at a picnic site inside the park, surrounded by nature.

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

Today you will spend a full day exploring the endless plains of Serengeti National Park, home to one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on earth. After an early breakfast, set out on a morning game drive when animals are most active. The Serengeti is world-famous for its massive herds of wildebeests and zebras, along with elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, and a variety of antelopes. Predators such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas also roam these plains, offering thrilling sightings. Depending on the season, you may witness the Great Migration, a breathtaking movement of millions of animals across the savannah. At midday, you will stop for a picnic lunch in the heart of the park, surrounded by stunning landscapes. In the afternoon, continue your adventure, exploring different areas of the Serengeti and enjoying the beauty of its golden plains before returning to your camp or lodge for dinner and overnight rest.

Day 3-4

Ndutu Area

Ndutu Area

After a hearty breakfast, we set out for a full-day game drive in the Ndutu region, exploring its diverse habitats of swamps, woodland, soda lakes, and the iconic Serengeti short grass plains. This area offers the incredible sight of vast herds of wildebeest and zebras, especially during the calving season. Around January, in just a few weeks, nearly half a million wildebeest calves are born in a remarkable display of synchronized birthing. The open plains provide little cover, and predators are never far, but the calves adapt quickly—able to run within minutes and strong enough to keep up with the herd in just a few days. This natural spectacle is one of the most unforgettable highlights of the Great Migration. After an exhilarating day in the wilderness, we return to Ndutu Heritage Camp for dinner and overnight rest.

Home to around 25,000 animals, the crater offers an incredible concentration of wildlife. You will encounter zebras, wildebeests, elephants, buffaloes, and, with some luck, spot the rare black rhino.
