5 Days Wildebeest Migration Safari in Tanzani

After breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park for a full day of wildlife viewing. Because it is one of Tanzania's lesser-known parks, it retains its true safari feel. The mountainous terrain is beautiful, with Baobab trees spread against the blue sky. The world's biggest concentration of elephants may be seen here. Around the Tarangire River, herds of up to 300 elephants can be observed drinking or taking a mud bath. Aside from elephants, Tarangire is a birder's heaven. Lions, leopards, cheetahs, and even tree-climbing pythons can be seen in the region around the wetlands.

Dinner and overnight at the campsite. Choices for tented camp or lodge are available upon request.

After breakfast, we head towards Serengeti National Park via the farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa – the Serengeti – with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see.

We head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. We arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the park

Today you continue your safari in Serengeti National Park. The stunning landscapes in the park are seen in some of the most impressive nature documentaries. The endless plains and abundance of wildlife are unsurpassed.

The annual wildebeest migration with more than a million wildebeest is probably the highlight of the Serengeti. Together with your private guide, you will be looking for the herds across the plains. Apart from the migratory animals, you will also get to see lots of other animals, like lions, cheetahs, leopards, and many more. Expect to be impressed by the natural beauty of Africa’s most famous park.

If you like to watch wildlife from another perspective, we recommend you to go on an optional (extra) balloon safari. It is an amazing experience to drift silently above the plains with herds of wildlife.
