After breakfast, transfer to Arusha Airport for a scenic flight to Serengeti National Park. Upon arrival at Seronera Airstrip, begin an exciting journey into the heart of the Serengeti, a vast expanse of rolling plains that stretch endlessly toward the horizon. The central Seronera region is one of the most wildlife-rich areas in the park, with the Seronera River providing a year-round water source that attracts a variety of animals.

Spend the afternoon exploring the park, encountering predators like lions, leopards, and cheetahs alongside herds of zebras, elephants, and antelopes. As the sun begins to set, enjoy an evening game drive, witnessing the Serengeti’s golden landscapes bathed in twilight. After an incredible first day on safari, head to your luxury tented camp for dinner and an overnight stay.

Begin the day with an optional hot air balloon safari at sunrise, floating silently over the Serengeti’s endless plains while spotting wildlife from above. This once-in-a-lifetime experience offers panoramic views and a unique perspective of the African wilderness.

After breakfast, embark on a full-day game drive through the park, following the Sogore River Circuit, an area known for sightings of lions, cheetahs, topis, Thomson’s gazelles, and ostriches. Visit the Serengeti Visitor Centre to learn more about the ecosystem, enjoy a picnic lunch under the shade of towering acacia trees, and continue exploring in the afternoon.

The drive continues along the Kopjes Circuit, a region dotted with ancient granite rock formations that provide shelter for lions, leopards, and other predators. These rocky outcrops also act as mini-ecosystems, offering refuge to small mammals and birds while retaining pools of water that attract wildlife. After a rewarding day of game viewing, return to camp for a relaxing evening under the African sky.

The park is known for its greatest wildlife spectacle—the Great Migration—where over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move in search of fresh grazing lands. Depending on the season, you may witness the dramatic river crossings or the calving season in the southern plains. Serengeti is also one of the best places to see predators in action, with large populations of lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, and jackals roaming the plains.

Enjoy an en-route game drive, spotting elephants, buffalo, giraffes, and a variety of antelope species. Arrive at your campsite in Seronera, the heart of the Serengeti, in time for dinner and overnight under the African sky.

After an early breakfast, descend into Ngorongoro Crater for a half-day safari in this remarkable wildlife haven. The crater, formed millions of years ago, is home to an extraordinary concentration of animals, offering one of the best opportunities to spot the Big Five in a single day. Large herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalo, and antelopes roam the crater floor, while lions, hyenas, and cheetahs can often be seen hunting in the open grasslands.

Visit Lake Magadi, a shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern part of the crater, where flocks of flamingos create a striking pink contrast against the blue waters. Hippos and other waterbirds are commonly spotted here, adding to the incredible diversity of wildlife in this unique ecosystem.

After lunch, ascend from the crater and begin the return journey to Arusha, where the safari ends. Transfers can also be arranged to Kilimanjaro International Airport for onward flights.
