We pick up travelers on Arusha region
After breakfast at 7 a.m., you will be picked up at 8 a.m. from your accommodation for a 6-hour (335km) drive to the southern part of Serengeti National Park, entering through the Ngorongoro gate. Once there, you will embark on a game drive and explore the Southern, Central, and Seronera Valley regions. The Maasai refer to this area as "Serengit," which means the land of endless plains. The Southern Zone boasts an expanse of savannah grassland that provides ample grazing space year-round for a variety of wildlife, including Wildebeest, Zebra, Coke's Hartebeest, waterbuck, Grant's and Thomson Gazelle, Impala, and more.
Elephants are abundant on the plains, with matriarchal herds growing in certain regions. Moru Kopjes rise from the expansive savannah-like ships on a golden-green sea. The area boasts unique flora, including candelabra trees and dazzling ephemeral flowers, as well as rare black rhinos. The central region is so vast that wildlife can climb and play on the gong rock and admire the Maasai cave paintings of elephants, shields, and abstract patterns. Additionally, the kopjes offer an excellent vantage point for predators to spot their prey.
Ngorongoro National Park stands out as the only park in Tanzania that offers a year-round opportunity to view the big five, possibly even in a single day. The park is renowned for its Maasai families who live in circular homesteads known as Bomas. Furthermore, the park is an excellent location to gain insight into early human evolution, pioneered by Mary and Louis Leakey. Wildlife sightings include wildebeest, gazelle, golden jackals, bat-eared foxes, hippopotamus, East African wild dogs, African leopards, ungulates, waterbucks, buffalo, and eland, among others. However, giraffes, oribi, topi, spotted hyenas, cheetahs, impalas, and some other wildlife are rarely seen in the park.
