The park is rich with wildlife—impalas, buffalos, hippos, and crocodiles—and world-famous for its Great Migration, where over 1.5 million wildebeest, 250,000 zebras, and 500,000 antelopes move with the rains. Alongside these vast herds, predators such as lions, cheetahs, and leopards may also be spotted. After your adventure, return to camp by 2:00 p.m. to relax, enjoy lunch, take a swim, and savor the unforgettable moments of the day.

Northern Serengeti National Park

This day is fully dedicated to game drives in the Serengeti, a wildlife paradise known for its incredible diversity. You’ll encounter species such as impalas, buffalos, crocodiles, and hippos, alongside the park’s most iconic spectacle—the great migration of wildebeest, zebras, and antelopes. Guided by seasonal rains, this natural phenomenon changes yearly. From November to December, massive herds journey south from the northern woodlands and hills to the endless grassy plains, while between April and June, during the long rains, they travel back north. Beyond the migration, the Serengeti offers year-round sightings of resident predators, including lions, leopards, and cheetahs, making every game drive an unforgettable adventure.

Central Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater
