DAY 04: FULL-DAY GAME DRIVE SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK
You will enjoy a full day of game viewing in Serengeti, exploring this fantastic game park in search of the Big 5: Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Buffalo, and Rhino. Depending on the time of your visit, you may even witness the Great Migration of nearly a million wildebeest and zebras as they move.
One of the most sought-after experiences for wildlife and nature enthusiasts, the Great Migration is the ever-moving circular migration of over a million animals across the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem. The constant movement of columns of wildebeest, joined by a host of companions, follow an age-old route in search of grazing and water. After calving in the southern part of Tanzania’s Serengeti near the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the animal journey through the Serengeti up and around in a clockwise direction towards the Masai Mara in Kenya, before returning once again near the end of the year. Along the way, high drama is always present, as thousands of animals are taken by predators and thousands more are born, replenishing the numbers and sustaining the circle of life.
Hungry predators including lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, wild dogs, and crocs make sure only the strongest survive in this natural spectacle also known as ‘the greatest show on Earth.
