The Serengeti is home to many animals, including leopards, cheetahs, lions, and large herds of wildebeests. It's one of Africa’s top safari spots and a great place to see the “Big Five” — lions, buffalo, rhinos, leopards, and elephants. The park is also famous for the Great Wildebeest Migration in the northern area.
Today’s main activity is a game drive to spot wildlife. You'll spend the night at a Tented Lodge.

From early July to early October, this area is one of the best places to see the Great Migration. Thousands of wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes cross the Mara River, often facing predators like crocodiles waiting in the water.

This amazing place, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa’s Seven Wonders, was created about three million years ago. It’s 610 meters deep and about 260 square kilometers wide. Home to around 25,000 animals, the crater is one of the best spots in Tanzania to see wildlife. In just a short time, you may see zebras, wildebeests, gazelles, elephants, and many of the 500+ bird species that live there.
If you’re lucky, you might even see rare black rhinos grazing in the open grasslands. After a full day of exploring and enjoying a picnic lunch, you’ll leave the crater in the afternoon and return to Arusha, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel or the airport.
