5-Day Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari with Ngorongoro

• After breakfast, tourists will be transferred to Arusha Airport for their flight to the Kogatende area of the Northern Serengeti.

• Enjoy a bird's eye view of Tanzania as you make the short trip, where you will be met by your driver upon arrival. 

• You will spend your day driving through this distinct and magnificently beautiful region of the park in search of the wildebeest migration and the Big Five in Serengeti National Park. 

• In the afternoon, you can extend your game drive until sunset, and then after, the driver drives you back to the lodge or camp.

• After breakfast, we will start our game drive around the Kogatende area, searching the kopjes, the carnivores and the large migration groups that will be gearing up to cross the Mara River into Kenya. 
  • Home to large numbers of hippos and Nile crocodiles, the Mara River is the last major obstacle between the wildebeest migration and the relative safety of the Maasai Mara.
  • If you are patient and a little lucky, you may even witness the death-defying crossing itself, where wildebeest and zebras brave the river's currents and crocodiles in an attempt to reach safety on the opposite bank.

Dinner and overnight in the heart of the Serengeti National Park according to the standard and the type of accommodation requested from our options, lodge/camp.

• We will start our day immediately after breakfast by driving through the plains of Togoro and the Mbuzi Mawe kopjes on our way to cross the Banagi River into the Seronera region of Central Serengeti. 
  • Along the way, you will spot everything from the enigmatic dik-diks to towering elephants and everything in between. The Seronera is often known as 'big cat country, and its kopjes and acacias provide an excellent opportunity to spot a pride of lazy lions, sleek cheetahs out on the hunt, and leopards overseeing everything from their lofty perches. 
  • The region's hippo pools and wide-open spaces provide ample opportunities for spectacular game viewing in Serengeti National Park. 

Dinner and overnight in the heart of the Serengeti National Park according to the standard and the type of accommodation requested from our options, lodge/camp.

• After breakfast, we get right on the road back towards the magnificent and attractive Ngorongoro Crater National Park. Our drive takes us back through the Serengeti via a different route, offering plenty of opportunities to spot the animals that eluded you on day two.
• As far as the eye can see, you will spot thousands upon thousands of animals in herds: wildebeests and zebras migrating together, tall and graceful giraffes, jumping antelopes and gazelles, the powerful African elephant, and the most respected group of animals, the predators. 
  • You will have the chance to spot lean cheetahs and shy leopards, hyenas, and last but not least, the king himself, the all-powerful lion. 

Dinner and overnight on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater or nearby Karatu town according to the standard and the type of accommodation requested from our options (camp/lodge).

• After breakfast, tourists will depart for Ngorongoro Crater, considered by some to be the Seven Wonders of the World. 

  • When you get your first glimpse of this vast, verdant caldera from the birds-eye viewpoint, you will soon understand why it has earned such a lofty reputation; it is a wonder. Home to over 120 species of mammal, including the fabled Big Five, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is one of the highest and most sought-after safari destinations in the world. 

  • It's a particularly good place to see the endangered black rhinoceros enjoying a lonely meal out on the grass plains, as well as a place to see large numbers of hippopotami enjoying the cool water. 

• From the comfort of your open-top vehicle, you will be able to observe and photograph some of Africa's most recognizable faces. The crater is home to a large number of predators, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, jackals, and hyenas, as well as a large population of wildebeest, zebras, antelope, cape buffalo, and more. It is truly one of Africa's premier safari destinations, and you surely won't like to miss it. 

• After the thrills and excitement of the day, you will have a picnic lunch at the Ngoitokitok site's famous hippo pool before returning to Arusha overnight.
