DAY 1: ARRIVAL DAY:

FLY FROM ZANZIBAR/ARUSHA TO SERENGETI, WILDEBEEST MIGRATION EXPERIENCE

Depending on your location (Zanzibar or Arusha), we will arrange a domestic flight to Serengeti National Park. Your travel agent or safari operator can assist you in making the necessary arrangements.

Upon arrival at Serengeti’s airstrip, you will be warmly welcomed by your safari guide who will be accompanying you throughout your stay in the park.

After a brief introduction, you will embark on your first game drive in Serengeti National Park. Your guide will take you to strategic locations where you can witness the awe-inspiring wildebeest migration, one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife phenomena.

The Great Wildebeest Migration involves millions of wildebeests, zebras, and other herbivores moving in a cyclical pattern across the Serengeti ecosystem in search of fresh grazing pastures and water sources.

Depending on the time of year, your guide will take you to areas within the park where the migration is most likely to be occurring. This could be the Southern Serengeti (around Ndutu), the Western Corridor, or the Northern Serengeti (Mara River region).

You will have the opportunity to witness dramatic river crossings, where herds of wildebeests and zebras brave crocodile-infested waters in their quest for greener pastures.

During the game drive, your guide will also point out other wildlife species, such as lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, and various bird species that coexist within the Serengeti.

In the late afternoon, you will head to your luxury tented camp or lodge, where you will be staying for the duration of your Serengeti safari.

Enjoy a delicious dinner prepared by the camp’s skilled chefs, followed by relaxation and a good night’s rest, surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.

DAY 2: DRIVE TO THE NORTH SERENGETI, WITNESS GREAT MIGRATION NEAR MARA RIVER

After breakfast at your luxury tented camp or lodge in Serengeti, you will embark on a thrilling drive to the northern part of the park, where the Mara River is located.

As you make your way north, your experienced safari guide will share insights about the wildlife and ecosystem of the Serengeti.

The northern Serengeti is known for its abundant wildlife and is a prime location to witness the dramatic river crossings of the Great Migration.

The Mara River is a significant obstacle for the migrating herds as they make their way across its treacherous waters, which are home to crocodiles and other predators.

Upon arrival in the north, you will position yourselves at strategic spots along the river, where you can observe the wildebeest and zebra herds gathering on the banks, contemplating the crossing.

Witnessing a river crossing during the Great Migration is a truly exhilarating experience, as thousands of animals brave the river, creating a dramatic spectacle of survival and determination.

While waiting for the crossing, you will enjoy a packed lunch surrounded by the sights and sounds of the Serengeti wilderness.

Throughout the day, you will have ample opportunities to capture incredible photographs and observe the interactions between the different wildlife species.

After a thrilling day of wildlife encounters and migration sightings, you will head to your camp near the migration area, where you will spend the night.

In the evening, you can relax around the campfire, share stories with fellow travelers, and enjoy a delicious dinner prepared by the camp’s staff.

Fall asleep to the symphony of the African bush, knowing that you are in the heart of one of nature’s greatest spectacles.

DAY 3: TRANSFER TO THE AIRPORT FOR DEPARTURE FROM SERENGETI TO ZANZIBAR/ARUSHA

On the final day of your safari adventure, you will wake up early in the morning to catch the last glimpses of the Serengeti wildlife before bidding farewell to this extraordinary wilderness.

After breakfast at your camp, you will pack your belongings and prepare for your departure.

Your safari guide will transfer you to the nearest airstrip in the Serengeti, where you will board a domestic flight to either Zanzibar or Arusha, depending on your planned destination.

The flight will offer you a bird’s-eye view of the vast plains, wildlife, and stunning landscapes of the Serengeti as you bid goodbye to this remarkable national park.

Upon arrival at your chosen destination, you will be met at the airport by a representative who will assist you with any necessary transfers or arrangements.

If you are returning to Zanzibar, you can continue your journey to one of the beautiful beaches or explore the cultural and historical attractions on the island.

If your destination is Arusha, you can either depart directly from the airport or choose to spend some time exploring the city or nearby attractions before continuing your onward travels.

This marks the end of your memorable safari experience in the Serengeti, filled with incredible wildlife sightings, the spectacle of the Great Migration, and unforgettable moments in the heart of the African wilderness.
