Game drive at Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, you’ll begin your journey toward the Serengeti, passing by the majestic Ngorongoro Crater. Here, you’ll stop to enjoy a breathtaking view of the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera—an unforgettable highlight before continuing onward.

The name Serengeti comes from the Maasai word Siringitu, meaning “endless plains.” As you travel deeper into the park, you’ll quickly understand why. The vast grassland savannah stretches endlessly across the horizon, broken only by granite outcrops known as kopjes. These unique rock formations create ideal lookout points and hiding places for predators, making them excellent spots to search for leopards and other big cats. With the vehicle’s open roof, you’ll have perfect vantage points to observe and photograph wildlife in their natural environment.
