The legendary Serengeti Plain is your destination today (210 km), a vast rolling plain whose sparse vegetation allows for some of the best wildlife viewing in the world. The annual migration of wildebeest and zebra is one of
the park’s great attractions, but throughout the year the Serengeti is excellent for seeing predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs, along with elephants, giraffes, hyenas, hippos, rhinos, and many varieties of antelopes and birds.
Depending on animal movement we can arrange a packed lunch or return to the lodge for a hot lunch. The evening

The Serengeti ecosystem supports the greatest remaining concentration of plains game in Africa, including more than three million large mammals. The park is one that can never disappoint. One is spoilt by the variety of bird and wildlife species in this game reserve.

pool). Ngorongoro Crater, the largest intact caldera in the world teams with an abundance of wildlife permanently resident on the crater floor. Pride of lions, herds of Cape buffalo, impala, Thompson gazelles, rhino, golden and
black-backed jackal, zebra, cheetah, leopard, and the spotted hyena freely roam on the crater floor plains.
Unmatched for its natural variety and breathtaking beauty, there are few places on earth where such a tremendous diversity of landscapes exist inside a region this size.

times quiet, while they demonstrate their use of locally made poisons in incapacitating the poor creatures on which they depend for survival.
In the afternoon, we drive to Arusha for your flight.
