Day 3: Full-day to explore Serengeti National Park- game drives
Depart the Camp/Lodge early (after breakfast and with packed lunch) for a proper game drive. This beautiful Protected Area in Northern Tanzania derived its name from the Masai word “Siringet” translated as “Endless open plains”, owing to its 14,763 square kilometer landscape. It is comprised of seasonally flooded plains, shrub savannah, forest, and grassy Plains.
One thing that stands out about this National Park is that during the dry season, its landscape is lush and dotted with wildflowers after the rains, hence making it perfect for continuous grazing, and this has made Serengeti the perfect haven for large herbivores. Every now and then, even the stunning kopjes (believed to be over 2.5 million years old) interrupt the infinite horizon.
Watching the annual migration involving millions of Wildebeest accompanied by Zebras and Gazelle is a lifetime experience. Nothing is more thrilling than watching them stampede over vast savannah plains and plunging into crocodile infested rivers. Your game drive will also be filled with views of elephants, lions, Masai giraffes, Topis, impalas, leopards, buffaloes, duikers, bushbucks, cheetahs and so much more. You will have a picnic lunch later and continue with the game drive until the evening when you will return to the Camp/Lodge for dinner and overnight.
