What to expect
Day 1: Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
10h
You will be picked up from your hotel after breakfast for a drive to Serengeti. On your way, you will pause at the Ngorongoro Crate Rim for a scenic view and photographs. On arrival, you will start your game drive. You'll have picnic lunch in the afternoon and continue on an afternoon game drive where sunset is surreal.
After the game drive, you will head to your campsite for dinner and sleep.
Day 2: Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
10h
On this day, you will wake up early and have your full breakfast, then you'll head out to witness the Great Migration.
You may also opt for balloon safari at a separate fee.
The peak migration time is between June and October in the Northern Serengeti, where the wildebeests cross the Mara River to enter Maasai Mara NP in Kenya. During this time, a million and a half of these majestic animals travel throughout the year to look for fresh grazing pasture and follow the rainfall for better water sources.
The next best time to witness Migration is during the calving season from January to March in the Southern Serengeti part called Ndutu. In this time, the wildebeest and Zebras give birth to around 8000 newborns per day. These defenseless newborns are a big attraction for the predators looking for an easy meal. This means a lot of hunting scenes for you.
You will have a picnic lunch in the afternoon, and in the evening, you will head back to your accommodation for dinner and overnight.
Day 3: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater
Serengeti National Park
10h
