4-Day Serengeti and Ngorongoro Wildlife Safari with Big 5

We will depart Arusha at dawn and travel to Serengeti National Park. Our route follows the road near the rim of Ngorongoro Crater, giving us the chance to glimpse animals along the way.

The golden savannah and endless plains, teeming with zebras, wildebeest, and giraffes, make it easy to understand why the Serengeti is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa.

During the day, we will enjoy a picnic lunch on Naabai Kopje, a small rocky hill rising from the generally flat landscape, where you can view the Serengeti's famous pink-headed lizards. After lunch, we will continue farther into the plains for a leisurely game drive.

You will spend the night in the Serengeti and fall asleep to the playful calls of zebras and hyenas.

We will start the day in the heart of the Serengeti. The wildlife here is incredibly varied, and visitors are likely to enjoy sightings of lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs, water buffalo, zebras, and wildebeest.

In addition, elands, hyenas, gazelles, crocodiles, giraffes, monkeys, baboons, hippos, rhinos, and antelopes are all found within the park. There is no need to worry about the time of year for your safari, because animals can be seen in the Serengeti throughout the year.

After the game drive, a delectable dinner will be served.

Accommodation: Clients select public campsites, tented campsites, or lodges.

Meals: Water is included with all meals. Other drinks are not included.

This day marks the last game drive in the Serengeti before we continue to Ngorongoro Crater. After an exciting game drive full of animal sightings and a picnic lunch, we will drive to the crater.

Tonight, we will stay there overlooking the unbroken caldera of Ngorongoro Crater. The sunset views over the savannah are definitely breathtaking.

After a long day of adventure, guests will enjoy a tasty dinner prepared by our friendly chef.

After an early morning breakfast, we will continue with a game drive in Ngorongoro Crater, when it is one of the best times to spot animals. On this day, we will enjoy a game drive around the crater and stop for a picnic lunch at a small lake within the park.

The lake is home to many hippos and migratory birds, making it a delightful place to visit. Due to the animal "oasis" created within the crater, there is a high probability of spotting every member of the Big 5: the ferocious lion, the giant elephant, the stealthy leopard, the charging rhino, and the mighty water buffalo.

Ngorongoro Crater is truly an amazing place. Formed over two million years ago, it was created when a large volcano erupted and collapsed, leaving behind a perfectly unbroken crater known as a caldera.

Within this remarkable crater, you can expect to see playful zebras, lumbering hippos, swift wildebeest, and cackling hyenas. In addition, flocks of graceful flamingos gather along the Soda Lake, while hungry hawks and vultures circle overhead in search of their next meal. Beautiful storks, ibis, and cranes are also popular water birds in the crater, a sight not to miss.

After a lovely afternoon of animal sightings, we will finally begin our journey back to Arusha.
