The park, with its baobab crested landscape is beautiful. Baobab trees tower above the savannah and these ancient trees play a vital role in the ecosystem as they are home to bees, birds and bats.

The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands which allow for excellent sightings of wildlife. Whilst it boasts abundant wildlife, it is perhaps best known for the annual Great Migration. Vast numbers of wildebeest; zebra and antelope move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The migration can be found during any given month; you just need to know where to look!

This entire day is set aside for game drives in the Serengeti. The Serengeti is arguably one of the most famous National Parks in the world. It is famous for its vast, open grasslands, which allow for excellent sightings of the abundant wildlife. It is one of the oldest ecosystems on earth and its climate and vegetation have remained largely untouched for millions of years. The Serengeti is home to a staggering variety of wildlife, but it is here that you have the best chance of seeing some of the predators in action, including lion, cheetah and leopard.

Today, it is possible to do early morning and late afternoon game drives, returning to the Camp for lunch.

Otherwise, a full day’s game drive with picnic lunch in the Park.

After breakfast, you will drive from Serengeti National Park to the Ngorongoro Crater. This Crater, once a gigantic volcano, is the largest intact caldera in the world. It is reported that before it erupted, it would have been higher than Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa! Today, long since having collapsed and eroded, the ancient caldera shelters one of the most beautiful wildlife havens on earth.

The drive down into the crater is an adventure in itself and when you reach the crater floor, you quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and more than 500 bird species. The crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino, which can sometimes be spotted in the open grasslands.

After a full afternoon inside the crater, you will head to your accommodation for dinner and an overnight stay in Karatu.
