After another early rising and breakfast, we venture to the Serengeti park for the start of our safari and game viewing on the vast plains that are broken only by stands of acacia trees and the occasional kopje. We will normally experience large herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle. There are always plenty of resident animals, such as giraffes, buffalo, and elephants, and many large cat predators such as lions, cheetahs,s and the elusive leopard. We may be fortunate to experience the entire ‘Big 5’ here! There is a break for lunch at the lodge before we spend the afternoon on our 2 nd game drive of the day.

Lodging : Mbugani Tented Camp or Sound of Silence.

We spend another full day in this wonderful park, rising early again. We can spend time at the

Hippo pool watching these majestic animals laze about in the cool water living alongside the crocodiles, watch a big pride of lions sometimes on the prowl for the many wildebeest and even zebras who travel with the wildebeest.

We journey from the open plains to the kopjes: these volcanic rocky outcrops provide protection and shelter for a wide variety of animals including Lions and from the top, we can see out across the vast grasslands of the Serengeti. This diverse and interesting landscape will provide us with the ultimate in-game viewing, and we will hopefully see all of the plain game; elephants, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, lions, and ideally the leopard and cheetah. We’ll also view interesting birdlife, from the elegant secretary birds to possibly the flightless ostrich.

After an early breakfast, we will travel the short drive to the UNESCO World heritage designated Ngorongoro crater. We will descend over 600 meters to the floor of the volcanic crater. Here we will explore the forest areas inhabited by monkeys and elephants and the lake area where we may see flamingos. We next visit the open savannah plains where lions roam and hunt and we will see large herds of wild buffalo. Ideally, you see the endangered Black Rhinoceros.  Picnic lunch in the crater. In the late afternoon, we make the short journey to Karatu town for overnight Lodging at Eileen's Tree Lodge
