4-Day Serengeti and Ngorongoro Luxury Safari with Big 5 Viewing

• After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, descend into the heart of wild Africa - the Serengeti National Park - with its endless plains rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see.
• Enter the heart of the central park area, known as the Seronera area. This is one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park and features the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to the area and therefore attracts wildlife representative of most of the Serengeti's species.
• Arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in Serengeti National Park, where you might see elephants, lions, hippos, giraffes, and buffaloes, to mention a few. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Heritage Tented Camp.

• Spend the whole day exploring the Serengeti, with a packed lunch to make the most of your game viewing. The area is a spectacular location for wildlife viewing, particularly for big cats, with multiple lion prides in the area. Cheetahs, leopards, and a variety of more common savannah game are also regularly spotted here.
• Even when the great wildebeest migration is not in the central part, game viewing is excellent throughout the year. Apart from the big cats, the area is also home to giraffes, hippos, elephants, impala, buffaloes, and a good number of bird species, which can keep your day busy as you search for that elusive leopard.
• In the early evening, return to camp to enjoy the sunset.

• After breakfast, enjoy a game drive in Serengeti National Park with a picnic lunch until noon, taking in the beauty of this great park. In the afternoon, continue with a game drive en route to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area for dinner and an overnight stay at Ngorongoro Rhino Lodge.

Main Destination: Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Meal Plan: Breakfast, lunch & dinner

Accommodation: Rhino Lodge

• Explore the crater floor.
• Leave Rhino Lodge very early in the morning and travel through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area before descending 610 meters to the grasslands of the crater floor, an area of about 265 square kilometres. Despite its small size, the Crater is Big 5 country, and the openness of the terrain means easy and rewarding game viewing. Spend the day exploring the crater floor, stopping for a picnic on the grasslands amidst the grazing herds. Formed by a massive volcanic eruption, the world's largest intact and unflooded caldera provides a year-round home to an astonishing 25,000 large mammals, including black rhino, wildebeest, and zebra, along with Africa's densest concentrations of hyena. The Crater's forests shelter elephants and buffalo. Its wetlands are home to hippos and flamingos, while lions, jackals, leopards, and caracals make up the full range of predators. In the late afternoon, leave the Crater behind and drive back to Arusha, where you will be dropped off at Kilimanjaro International Airport.
