The park provides a sanctuary to a variety of animals such as gazelles, impalas, buffaloes, wildebeest, hyenas, baboons, giraffes, hippos, and the famous tree climbing lions that are unique to the lake.
The legendary Serengeti Plain is your destination today (210 km), a vast rolling plain whose sparse vegetation allows for some of the best wildlife viewings 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 lion, leopard, and cheetah, along with elephant, giraffe, hyena, hippo, rhino, and many varieties of antelopes and birds. Depending on the animal movement we can arrange packed lunch or go back to the lodge for hot lunch. The evening is free to rest.
Rise early and take a morning game drive through the park to see the nocturnal predators returning from their nightly hunt and very active animals waking up in the early morning light. Depending on the time of year and the migration of the herds, you can expect to see wildebeest, lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, baboons, hippos, rhinos, antelopes, birds, and other species.
we enjoy morning and afternoon game-viewing drives on the vast Serengeti plains. In the early morning and evening light, the Serengeti landscape is stunningly beautiful. 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.
Depending on wildlife movement, we can have hot lunch at the camp or enjoy picnic lunch packets.
