Full-Day Serengeti Game Drive

  • After breakfast, you will set out on your full-day Serengeti game drive.

It is perhaps most famous for the migration.
  • Today, you will drive along the Sogore River Circuit, which loops into the plains south of the Seronera River and is excellent for viewing large herds of African elephants, Thomson's gazelles, topi, ostriches, and hippopotamuses. The Visitor Centre near the Serengeti is also well worth a visit after the morning's game drive. This wonderfully designed centre offers interesting wildlife displays and information about the abundant wildlife.
  • The itinerary is flexible, and after lunch you will spend a fun-filled day spotting animals as you experience the wild up close. As the skies begin to turn crimson, you will drive to your luxury camp for a relaxing evening, dinner, and overnight stay.
