We will pick you up at your destination and transfer you to the airport for a flight from Zanzibar to the Seronera airstrip. The Serengeti National Park, home to the "Big Five" (rhinoceros, elephant, leopard, buffalo and lion), is one of the greatest national parks in the world, spanning over 14,000 km². The name Serengeti comes from a Maasai word meaning "endless plains".
Although populations fluctuate, there are an estimated 3 million large animals in the Serengeti, including over 2,500 lions, 1.2 million wildebeest and over 200,000 zebras.
Enjoy a picnic or lunch in the camp before continuing for an afternoon game drive through the vast plains. A trip to the Serengeti at any time of the year can never disappoint!

After breakfast, we will drive to the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s safari highlights. The name Ngorongoro is from a Maasai word meaning "Gift of Life".
You will begin by taking in the magnificent views from the crater rim before descending into the crater itself. You will have the opportunity to see elephants, lions, buffalo, zebras and many other animal and bird species. We will enjoy a picnic lunch overlooking the hippo pool.
The Ngorongoro Crater is beautiful at any time of year and teems with wildlife. You may experience clear views of the crater bowl or mists rolling down into the base - either way, a memorable experience. We will drop you off at your selected accommodation or airport.
