Day 3&4: 2 full days Serengeti National Park (Ndutu area) – Whole day wildlife sighting game drive

This day, wake up very early in the morning to have a cup of coffee to warm up yourself, get a box of your packed full breakfast and lunch, and then drive to the park for an early morning game drive, which is a fantastic option for spotting nocturnal and diurnal species as they awaken for the day. The excitement for today will be pretty high as you enter the world’s most celebrated wildlife park – The Serengeti. Serengeti means endless plains in the local African language. Watching the grassland stretch out as far as the eye can see and eventually merge with the sky at the horizon is a breathtaking view. With an overall land area of 14,763 sq km, it puts our notion about the distance to shame. The Serengeti also houses the glorious “Big 5” (elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion, and leopard). Along with the “Big 5”, a very pleasant sighting would be one of Africa’s most beautiful animals – The Impala. The Serengeti ecosystem supports the greatest remaining concentration of plains game in Africa. It would help if you also looked out for the Serengeti “Kopjes,” which are massive boulders of granite standing in a sea of grass. They provide ample shelter to a large variety of flora and fauna. A picnic lunch will be held during the day-long game drive. In the morning, pick up from your hotel in Arusha and head towards the Ndutu region. Ndutu is part of the route for the annual migration of more than 2 million wildebeests and thousands of zebras, antelope, and gazelle. During game drives during the proper season between December and April, the fertile plains become calving grounds and nurseries for the great migration. This season attracts hordes of predators prying on vulnerable young wildebeest. Crested with Ndutu Lake and Lake Masek, these waterholes offer plenty of wildlife game during the dry season. The Ndutu is also the home ground for six species of big cats – leopard, lion, cheetah, caracal, serval, and wildcat. The action-packed game drive will end late in the evening by around 5 PM. You will head towards your camp to refresh and then end your day with a heavy dinner and an overnight.
