Today is dedicated entirely to exploring the spectacular wildlife of Serengeti. After an early breakfast your morning game drive begins when animals are most active. This is often the best time to see lions hunting, cheetahs scanning the plains, and hyenas roaming across the savannah. The Serengeti is also home to the famous Great Migration, where thousands of wildebeest and zebras move across the plains in search of fresh grazing land. Around midday you will enjoy a picnic lunch in the wilderness, surrounded by open landscapes and wildlife sounds. The afternoon continues with more game drives through different habitats including river valleys and acacia woodlands where elephants, buffalo, and many bird species can be seen. Return to the lodge in the evening for dinner and relaxation.
