Tour Overview

An epic Classic/Standard journey into the heart of the Great Wildebeest Migration.

This unforgettable safari takes you deep into the Serengeti, one of Africa’s greatest wildlife sanctuaries, to witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration. Over five days, you’ll explore vast open plains, track the dramatic movements of millions of wildebeest and zebras, and witness predators in action. The itinerary is crafted to give you ample time in the Serengeti — especially during the high migration season — to maximize your chances of seeing river crossings, large predator encounters, and herds on the move.

Tour In Details
Day 1: Arusha/Moshi to Serengeti National Park

Your adventure begins early in the morning as your guide picks you up from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi. The journey to Serengeti National Park is an experience in itself — you’ll pass through the lush highlands of Karatu and traverse the misty Ngorongoro Conservation Area, catching glimpses of Maasai bomas, acacia-dotted landscapes, and wildlife along the way.

By midday, you’ll descend onto the endless golden plains of the Serengeti, entering through Naabi Hill Gate. After a picnic lunch, you’ll enjoy your first game drive en route to your lodge or tented camp. As the sun sets over the savannah, keep your eyes peeled for elephants, giraffes, big cats, and herds of wildebeest grazing under the warm African sky.

Day 2: Full Game Drive in Serengeti National Park

Today is dedicated entirely to exploring the vast Serengeti. You’ll rise with the sun and head out for a full day of adventure, with picnic lunch boxes allowing you to roam deep into the migration route. This is where the magic happens: vast herds of wildebeest stretch across the plains, accompanied by zebras and gazelles.

Depending on the season and movement, your guide will lead you to the best locations to witness thrilling predator-prey interactions, possible river crossings, and dramatic hunting scenes. The day is rich with photography opportunities and quiet moments to soak in the grandeur of the ecosystem.

Day 3: Another Full Day in Serengeti (Northern or Western Corridor)

To give you more chances to witness the Great Migration in action, this extra day in the Serengeti allows you to go even deeper into the northern or western corridor of the park. This is where the Mara or Grumeti Rivers become the center stage for one of nature’s most dangerous journeys — wildebeest braving crocodile-infested waters while lions and hyenas stalk the edges.

You’ll spend the day tracking migration patterns, enjoying scenic bush landscapes, and perhaps stopping for a peaceful break under an acacia tree. The extended stay in the Serengeti ensures a deeper connection with this iconic land and its wildlife.

Day 4: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

After a relaxed breakfast, enjoy a final morning game drive as you make your way out of Serengeti, still scanning the horizon for animals you may have missed. On your journey toward Ngorongoro, you’ll pass more wildlife and take in the striking contrasts of terrain—from flat plains to rolling highlands.

By late afternoon, you’ll reach the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and overnight at a lodge perched on the crater rim, offering stunning views into the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera. Get some rest — tomorrow is a special day.

Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater Exploration – Return to Arusha or Moshi

After an early breakfast, descend 600 meters into the Ngorongoro Crater for one of the most concentrated wildlife experiences on Earth. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to nearly 30,000 animals including lions, elephants, buffaloes, flamingos, and the rare black rhino.

You’ll enjoy a half-day game drive across the crater floor with a picnic lunch near the hippo pool, surrounded by stunning vistas and wildlife at every turn. After an enriching safari experience, begin your scenic return to Arusha or Moshi, where your 5-day adventure concludes.
