Although the drive to Serengeti is not short, you’ll be rewarded with unique and mesmerizing vistas upon arrival in the afternoon.

You’ll dedicate the entire day to traversing this unique and captivating corner of the park, in pursuit of the wildebeest migration and the Big Five. Since you’ll be spending a full day in the northern Serengeti, your chances of witnessing the dramatic wildebeest river crossings are significantly enhanced.

Your guide will maintain communication via radio to stay informed about the crossing locations, increasing your odds of witnessing this remarkable event.

In the afternoon, you’ll have the option to extend your game drive until sunset or participate in one of the optional activities offered at your lodge. These activities often include guided nature walks or enjoying a relaxing sundowner experience at the lodge.

With a population of only 2,000 members, the Hadzabe community offers a captivating glimpse into Tanzania’s historical way of life.
