The park teems with wildlife including troops of baboons and blue monkeys, giraffes, elephants, impalas, and large buffalo herds. The lake hosts numerous hippos and spectacular flocks of flamingos. Game drives along the lake offer unparalleled photo opportunities with wildlife foregrounding the scenic lake. Optional activities include biking tours or boat excursions.

After an early breakfast, we depart for the world-famous Serengeti National Park, driving up the crater highlands with a stop at Ngorongoro Crater's rim for breathtaking views. The name "Serengeti" comes from the Maasai word for "endless plains" - a perfect description of this 6,900 sq mile wilderness.
The Serengeti is home to the Great Migration (2 million wildebeest, hundreds of thousands of zebras and antelope) and Africa's best predator viewing. Lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas abound, with many famous wildlife documentary scenes filmed here. The vast plains will stretch beyond the horizon, challenging your perception of distance.
Accommodation: Tented camp in Serengeti
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

We suggest a very early wake-up for a spectacular morning game drive when animals are most active, followed by one of the most breathtaking sunrises you'll ever witness. After returning to camp for brunch, we proceed to Ngorongoro, the "8th Wonder of the Natural World."
The Ngorongoro Crater spans 102 sq miles with 2,000 ft high walls, forming a natural enclosure for nearly every East African wildlife species. It's one of Africa's few places to see the endangered black rhino. The crater contains diverse habitats - rivers, swamps, a flamingo-filled soda lake, forests and open plains - and is famous for its giant-tusked elephants.

Descend into the crater at dawn for a spectacular morning game drive in one of Earth's most concentrated wildlife areas. The crater floor contains diverse habitats supporting nearly all East African species, with excellent chances to see the Big Five.
