4-Day Serengeti and Ngorongoro Safari with Migration Wildlife

We will depart Arusha at dawn and travel to Serengeti National Park. The journey follows the road near the rim of Ngorongoro Crater, allowing us 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 in a generally flat area, 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 animals found here are incredibly varied, so 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, and black rhinos 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.

This marks the last day of game driving in the Serengeti before we make our way to Ngorongoro. After an exciting game drive filled with animal sightings and a picnic lunch, we will drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Tonight, we will stay at one of the lodges on the crater rim, 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 to Ngorongoro Crater, when it is the best time to spot animals. During the day, we will enjoy a game drive around the crater and stop for a picnic lunch at Ngoitokitok Picnic Site. The area is home to many hippos and migratory birds, making it a rewarding stop for guests.

The crater is home to some of the strongest animals in Africa - the ferocious lion, the giant elephant, the stealthy leopard, the charging rhino, and the mighty water buffalo. Ngorongoro Crater is truly an amazing place. Did you know it was formed over two million years ago? A large volcano erupted and collapsed, leaving behind a perfectly unbroken crater known as a caldera.

Within this amazing 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 the sky in search of their next meal from a discarded carcass. 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.
