Why we love it?

This six-day safari begins in Arusha before journeying into the Central Serengeti, where you’ll spend several days tracking the diverse wildlife that defines this iconic region. Your experienced guide will help you spot key species such as lion, elephant, buffalo, cheetah, and possibly the elusive black rhino, while also keeping an eye out for the Great Migration’s vast herds of wildebeest and zebra if your trip coincides with that season. The adventure continues with a visit to Ngorongoro Crater, where permanent water and grasslands support a year-round population of animals including black-maned lions, hippos, jackals, and hyenas. Accommodation ranges from tented camps to lodges, providing comfort after full days of game drives in a private 4x4 vehicle. This itinerary is suited to travelers seeking a concentrated experience of Tanzania’s premier wildlife areas, combining the open plains of the Serengeti with the unique ecosystem of Ngorongoro.

Day 2
  • Great Migration if it is still in the southern part of the Serengeti

    After a good night’s sleep and an early breakfast, we set out from Arusha towards our destination, the Central Serengeti. Today, we have a long drive, there is no doubt about that. But as we head west and north, we have the possibility – if you are on safari in April and depending on the arrival of the rains – to see the Great Migration if it is still in the southern part of the Serengeti. (If not, it will of course be already in Central Serengeti, where we will soon be spending our time.) Our vehicles are rigorously maintained and designed for your comfort and safety; our drivers are renowned for their professionalism. So, sit back and relax, take in the amazing scenery as your adventure begins

Day 3

  • On this trip-of-a-lifetime, we now have a whole day to marvel at the natural wonders of the world’s greatest national park. Your experienced driver-guide will be on constant lookout, for the dozens of wildlife species present here: animals ‘on the move,’ animals hunting…or being hunted!

    Each day is different here, full of surprises, but we focus of course on the Great Migration, that unique natural wonder which involves a cast of breathtaking numbers, literally hundreds of thousands of animals making their annual journey across the plains as they search for food. Zebra and wildebeest are the most numerous of the migrating animals, grazing on the short-grass plains. But your driver-guide will also be on the lookout for other wildlife, too, using his expertise and ‘eagle-eyes’ to try to find elephant, lions, buffalo, leopard, and cheetah – just some of the many, many species you will surely encounter in this unforgettable location.

Day 4

  • On your Third day in this wildlife paradise, you awake again to the sights, sound and scents of Africa. After breakfast, your driver-guide will be waiting for you, eager to show you yet more of the astonishing creatures of Central Serengeti.

    Every day is united only in its ability to reveal astonishing sights in Africa’s finest wildlife setting. Although animal-spotting in the Central Serengeti is rewarding throughout the year, you are visiting the area during its peak season for wildlife. This is an area renowned for lion and cheetah, although of course sightings can never be guaranteed.

    A real bonus in this part of the Serengeti would be to see a rare black rhino and your driver-guide will be on the lookout for this enigmatic and beautiful creature. Exhilarated but tired, you will welcome the comforts of your accommodation at the end of another unforgettable day. Relax in your lodge surroundings before enjoying a hot meal in the wilderness, then fall asleep in comfort in this unique setting
