The Serengeti indeed has its many wonders in terms of biodiversity, part of which will be experienced today. During the morning game drive, predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs try their luck in the plains for prey; Throughout Serengeti, your guide will be taking you through key areas, including the Seronera Valley, where wildlife is also common, and lions are relatively easy to see, and if it is that time of year, you may even witness a part of the Great Migration, when nature’s spectacle occurs with millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles migrate across the plain in search of fresh grazing areas.
Stop for a bush picnic under an acacia tree in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by bush and game. The afternoon is left to more game viewing at your guide’s discretion depending on animal movements. It could be a herd of elephants trekking across an open savanna or a family of hippos lazing in the waters; there’s always something incredible going on in the Serengeti. In the late afternoon, when the sun nears its setting, return to your lodge for some fine dinner and, if need be, tell stories around the campfire to unwind after such an exhilarating day.
