Day 3 – Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, you’ll set off for the world-famous Serengeti National Park, a drive that doubles as a game drive as you pass through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. On arrival in the Serengeti, enjoy an afternoon game drive in the endless plains, home to the Great Migration, big cats, and more. Expect encounters with lions, leopards, elephants, and countless other species.
Overnight: Serengeti
Day 4- Serengeti to Ngorongoro
An early morning start in the Serengeti to try and find cats before they retreat from the blazing sun during the day. After a few hours of the game drive, travel to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area where you will overnight. The Ngorongoro caldera is the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world. At approximately 20 kilometers across and 600 meters deep, the Ngorongoro Crater is a breath-taking natural wonder.

Day 5 – Ngorongoro Crater
Over the next two exciting days at your camp, drive across the sprawling savanna in search of abundant game in one of Kenya’s most spectacular game reserves. Running along the Tanzanian border, the Mara forms an essential part of the Serengeti ecosystem. Each year, more than a million wildebeest, alongside zebra and gazelle, march north to graze on the Mara’s lush grasses as part of the Great Migration’s annual cycle. Follow the Mara River to see crocodiles basking in the sun, hippos as they wallow in muddy water or monkeys swinging madly overhead through the trees. In place of a morning game drive on either day, enjoy an optional early-morning hot air balloon ride (at an additional cost), observing Africa’s wild game from a unique vantage point.
