The world-famous Ngorongoro Crater is located in northern Tanzania. Thought to be the result of a volcanic explosion, this fertile valley is one the most beautiful natural wildlife safari destinations in the world and has even been named one of Africa’s Seven Natural Wonders. The enclosed nature of the crater has created an ecosystem all of its own, resulting in some of the best opportunities to spot game. It also has the densest known population of lions. Buffalo, elephants, leopards, and rhinos can also be seen here, in addition to a host of other well-loved African classics like the ostrich, zebra, cheetah, wildebeest, gazelle, and even hippo. After the extensive game viewing in the crater, we will be driving to Central Serengeti for your dinner and overnight stay waiting for your epic adventure to continue on the following day.

Explore Serengeti National Park
Day 3Explore Serengeti National Park Explore Serengeti National Park Enjoy your breakfast in the Central Serengeti before heading out for the game drive. The Great Migration is the most dramatic wildlife spectacle on the planet and there is only one place in the world where it takes place: Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. Every year, millions of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle make their way from the Ndutu region in the south of the Serengeti. They move across perilous river crossings and huge expanses of grassy plains, to reach fresh green grass that comes with seasonal rains as they move northwards. For many months of the year, the vast herds can be seen in different parts of the Serengeti: calving at the start of the year, river crossings in the middle of the year, and the return journey from the Masai Mara at year’s end. This makes the park open to visitors throughout the year. After a full afternoon in the Serengeti, you'll be driving to Ngorongoro Conservation Area for your dinner and an overnight stay. Proceed with your trip the following day.
