Day 4: North Serengeti Migration

Our morning game drive takes us to the Northern Serengeti, a gently rolling area of isolated hills, small rivers, and kopjes stretching about 100 km from Seronera. This region has a diverse permanent wildlife population and striking geological features, including Lobo Kopje. It’s less visited due to its distance from the park’s main entry point. In August, the wildebeest migration passes through this region, presenting a chance to witness an impressive river crossing. We’ll end the day at our lodging, enjoying dinner and spending the night under the magnificent African sky on the “Endless Plain.”

Accommodation: Mara River Camp

Day 5: Serengeti Crossing

You will leave after a leisurely breakfast in order to maximize the day. You might catch a glimpse of the wildebeest migration crossing the Mara River. Hundreds of thousands of frightened wildebeest congregate on the river’s banks, staring longingly across the choppy water at the lush grass on the other side, but no animal moves. All it takes is for one bold wildebeest to literally jump in, and the rest will follow! Animals that successfully cross the river and avoid the waiting crocodile jaws are rewarded with the lush Masai Mara grazing grass.

Accommodation: Mara River Camp
Meals & Drinks: All meals included plus Drinking Water

Day 6: North to Central Serengeti

After breakfast, you’ll head back to Seronera and have more chances to take in the Serengeti’s amazing wildlife and scenic beauty.
The resident predators, such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs, may be visible in addition to the wildebeest migration, playing their part in the cycle of life.
We will return to our lodging after a lengthy game drive for a hearty dinner and another night by the fire. We will unwind and chat while enjoying the expansive majesty and experience of the best africa safari night on the “Endless Plain.”

The caldera, a closed ecosystem, is 610 meters deep and 260 square kilometers, named after the bells on Maasai cows’ necks. Spot the big five, wildebeest, gazelles, reedbuck, 500 bird species, and more. We’ll stop for a picnic lunch by the hippo lake and ascend the steep road out in the late afternoon.
