Serengeti National Park

Day 2Serengeti National Park Serengeti National Park We hope you're excited for today! We'll be in the park all day long today. At dawn, we'll set out and begin our journey. We will go on a full-day wildlife drive to explore the Serengeti's stunning surroundings and look for the Big 5. After that spectacular morning game drive, we'll go back to the campsite for a cooked lunch before leaving for yet another spectacular late afternoon game drive. You see, the Serengeti is home to more than just huge creatures. Over 500 different bird species have been identified, from the enormous ostrich and strange secretary bird of the open grassland to the black eagles that swoop gracefully over the savannah. That's what makes this wildlife "sanctuary" magical. That being said, we'll keep on looking for wildlife in the Serengeti, then head back to camp for some delicious dinner and a rustic night rest.
