The yearly voyage of Great Wildebeest Migration spreading crosswise over Tanzania is a champion among the most epic untamed life events on the planet. Around a huge number of wildebeest and zebras move in a circuitous undertaking from the Serengeti Plains in Tanzania to the Masai Mara Reserve in Kenya in hunt new grassland and after that back to the Serengeti reliably. The visuals of the groups moving over the crocodile-pervaded streams are a sight not to be missed, with predators and crocs holding up upon a chance to eat up the gathering, while the wildebeest and zebras rushing to save their lives is a spine-chilling background. The Great Wildebeest Migration can be seen for around nine months and in the Mara district for a quarter of a year, which makes Tanzania the best objective to watch the wildebeest Migration Safaris.
Our Guide will pick you up from the Airport. From here you will be driven to your hotel in Arusha and brief you about your next day trip.
In the morning after breakfast (around 6:00 a.m.) your driver-guide will arrive at the hotel and inform the receptionist that he is waiting for you. After meeting up with your driver you will travel to Tarangire National Park, and by 10:00 a.m. you will already be on your first safari! Tarangire is huge. As you stand at the park gate and look south, it stretches as far as the eye can see. Known as the ‘Elephant Playground,’ this spectacular park contains largest population of these mighty mammals.Perhaps a solitary male lion stretched out beneath a tree, perhaps a trio of male cheetah enjoying some lazy bonding-time in the sun. Maybe some graceful Grant’s gazelle or zebra bounding away from the road or a couple of giraffes munching happily from the choicest acacia branches. For Tarangire specialties, look out for kudu and oryx. After an extensive game drive and a picnic lunch, you will leave the park to make your way to the cooler regions of the Ngorongoro highlands. You will overnight at the Tloma Lodge..
After breakfast, you will set off for your next destination, the stunning Serengeti National Park, a distance of 166 km and a journey time of around 3 ½ hours. By late morning, you will reach Serengeti, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the country’s oldest and most celebrated national park and take a game drive. There are surely not many better places on earth to see such quantities and variety of wildlife. You will absorb the breath-taking scenery, fantastic changing light and – of course – spot the many animals choosing to make their home here. Your dedicated driver-guide will be delighted to share with you his knowledge of this incredible place and its flora and fauna. With thousands of predators – and their prey numbering in the hundreds of thousands – it is no surprise that there is always something fascinating happening amongst the wildlife populations. Just some of the many species here. Snap off some memorable photos, but don’t forget to simply take a deep breath and enjoy nature in its real-time, raw beauty. After the game drive, you will be taken to your accommodation for some welcome rest, your evening meal and to spend the night..
After breakfast, your journey from Central Serengeti to Northern Serengeti will take around 5 hours, with plenty of changing landscapes and wildlife highlights to see along the route. The Northern Serengeti is a land of open woodland, extending from the Seronera in the south to the Mara River in the north, marking the frontier with neighbouring Kenya. During your time here, you can get to grips with a whole new set of exotic names: Bolongonja, Kogatende, Lamai and of course, the legendary Mara river. You are now following in the footsteps of the Great Migration, great herds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra getting ready to cross the Mara into Kenya, and back again. It forms an integral part of the annual ritual. On a daily basis, crossings cannot be guaranteed, but your driver-guide knows the most likely places to witness them, one of Nature’s most awe-inspiring sights. Patience is required! And if you’re not lucky enough to witness a crossing, there’s always tomorrow; and in Northern Serengeti, plenty more to see today. At the end of your game-drive, you will be taken to your chosen accommodation for some well-earned relaxation and your evening meal..
After breakfast, you will embark with your driver-guide on a full-day game drive around parts of Northern Serengeti. If you didn’t see any river crossing yesterday, then today offers another possibility. Your driver-guide has intimate knowledge of where and when they might occur. Populations of elephant and giraffe, dik-dik, buffalo and lions are all resident here, but the Migration time sets a different scene entirely. Huge crocodiles lurk in anticipation of the river crossing, looking to pick off a wildebeest or two as their herds plunge into the waters for the other side. Safety in numbers? Not always, so perhaps you will see not only a crossing, but a kill as well. Patience will bring its rewards – for crocodiles and for you, the visitor, poised with your camera! After a full and exciting day of wildlife-spotting in the Northern Serengeti, you will return you to your accommodation for dinner and your second night's stay..
While you’ve been asleep or having breakfast, you can be sure that your driver-guide has been checking to see what’s happening in the wonderful world of wildlife. Rest assured, he will find you a highlight! Before leaving the Northern Serengeti, you take the opportunity this morning to enjoy another game drive in this incredible location. This allows you further time to wonder at the migratory herds and the dangers and challenges they face each year in their battle for survival. During the early afternoon, you will set off back to your next destination, the Central Serengeti, a journey of around 155 km with an expected time of around 5 hours. There will be plenty to see on the way, and on reaching you will head towards the Kati Kati Tented Camp, where you stayed on day three. The camp team will be waiting to welcome you back..
Following breakfast, you will have a morning game drive in amazing Serengeti, marveling at its animal inhabitants. With its informative visitor centre, the Seronera area of Central Serengeti is the national park’s most popular area. And it is very popular with the wildlife, too. The SeroneraRiver enjoys year-round water flow, so there is always something of interest to observe. Several game drives can be undertaken here and might reveal lions in sizeable prides, hippo or herds of elephants - whose populations in the park have risen in recent times. Depending on other attractions, you may choose to call in at the Serengeti Visitor Centre, where there is an excellent explanation of the park’s eco-system and a chance to understand the history of conservation in this area. In particular, you will find out about the work of Bernhard Grzimek and the Frankfurt Zoological Society who had the foresighted vision of preserving the Serengeti’s eco-system. Even at the center, you may well find wildlife: populations of hyrax and mongoose, as well as many small bird species. After lunch, you will head south-east towards Ngorongoro Conservation Area. If it has not already struck you with its vastness, Serengeti’s ‘endless plains’ will make a deep impression on you as you will take the long, straight road which passes Simba Kopjes (famous from ‘The Lion King’) to reach Naabi Hill Gate, close to the divide between Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Here you can gather information at the gate’s visitor center, clamber up the hill for superb views back over the plains, or look out for a colourful agama lizard among the rocks.
From your accommodation, you will set off after breakfast,and drive back to Arusha for departure.
