    After an early breakfast, your adventure begins with a scenic drive from Arusha to the world-famous Serengeti National Park.

    As you continue into the Serengeti, you’ll quickly understand why this vast expanse is called “endless plains” in the local language. The park is renowned for the Great Migration, home to over 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and an abundance of antelopes, such as impalas and Thomson’s gazelles. The Serengeti is also a haven for large predators, making it one of the best places in the world to witness lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas in action.
