The biggest wildebeest and zebra migration takes place here and, depending on the season, you may witness thousands of animals on their search for food and water. After an extensive game drive, you will head to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
Today after breakfast, enjoy a full day in different parts of Serengeti!Breakfast, lunch and dinner are provided. Drinking water will also be provided every day per person. The Central Serengeti offers superb game viewing all year round due to its abundance of resident animals. Specifically, the Seronera River Valley in the Central Serengeti is a โmust seeโ on every safari regardless of the specific month of travel. Game viewing in Central Serengeti is at its best during the dry season (June - November) as resident animals are more concentrated in the immediate area due to the lack of water in the plains. Resident herbivores include impala, buffalo, hippo, warthog, topic, hartebeest and giraffe. Resident carnivores include lion and leopard.
Have the morning in the Serengeti and then after lunch, drive to the rim of Ngorongoro Crater.Breakfast, lunch and dinner are provided. Drinking water will also be provided every day per person. There are several documented resident lion prides just within a one-hour game drive radius from Seronera. During the dry season, the resident prides begin to shift west and north in their territories and concentrate in the central region of the park. The dry season is a particularly good time for lion viewing in the Central Serengeti? The Central Serengeti is also one of the best areas in Africa to spot the elusive leopard. You may be lucky enough to encounter this majestic cat in the branches of the sausage trees that dot the banks of the Seronera River.
Today you will depart early after your delicious breakfast to Ngorongoro crater with a game drive en-route. The Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtakingly beautiful setting and the best place in East Africa to see the Big Five. It is one of the most beautiful natural wildlife safari sites in the world and an exceptional place to interact with people from the Maasai tribe. On reaching the craterโs edge, the 20 km diameter caldera opens up before you in all its stunning glory and you will descend into the crater on an adventurous trail. This World Heritage Site is seasonally home to over 25,000 animals in including a wide range of birdsโ species, hyenas and the endangered black rhino. Hot Lunch will be served at a picnic spot at the hippo pool and after that you will continue to explore the crater. After exploration you will ascend the crater and drive straight to your accommodation in Karatu for dinner and overnight stay.
