Day One: Nairobi - Samburu National Reserve

On day three, four and five, you will explore the various regions Serengeti is undoubtedly the best-known wildlife sanctuary in the world, unequal for its natural beauty and scientific value. It has the greatest concentration of plains game in Africa. It is the migration for which Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over a million wildebeests and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought, gorge or crocodile infested river can hold them back. Serengeti is truly home to the legendary Great Wildebeest Migration. The park is rich in wildlife, endless plains, sunrises and sunsets that make the heart go wild. A packed lunch will be served at a picnic site.

Later in the evening, return to camp for dinner and overnight.

The highlands in Ngorongoro are a welcoming site to children, especially at the Gibbs farm where children get to play in the coffee farm, meet the locals while at the same time having a clear view of the crater and animals in the conservation area. You will have a whole day of exploring around the crater.

Ngorongoro crater is the world’s largest inactive, intact and unfilled volcanic caldera. This geological masterpiece was formed as a result of an extremely large volcanic explosion which caused the volcano to collapse on itself thus creating a crater. During the game drive, you will watch many resident animals including large prides of lions, packs of hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, hyenas among others and pink flamingoes at Lake Magadi found in the corner of the crater.
