Life on Safari
You will be picked up at your hotel around 7 am – 8 am and transferred to Tarangire National Park for your game-viewing experience in this magnificent park.

Accommodation: Lake Burunge Baobab Tented Lodge

After breakfast, you will head towards the Serengeti National Park. Leaving the highlands behind, you descend into the heart of wild Africa—the Serengeti—with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. You’ll head to 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. You’ll enjoy a game drive en route to the lodge.

You will experience a full day of exploration in the Serengeti’s Seronera area that begins with first light, offering a glimpse into the active lives of predators and diverse wildlife amid the breathtaking Serengeti scenery. You take a break in the middle of the day for a picnic lunch, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the wild. In the afternoon, you’ll visit the renowned hippo pools, go on quests for elusive black rhinos, and potentially witness segments of the great migration, depending on the season. As the day winds down, you will enjoy a late afternoon game drive to capture the Serengeti’s beauty during the golden hour, culminating in a mesmerizing sunset. Throughout the day, your experienced guide will enhance the experience by sharing insights into the animals and ensuring a respectful and secure safari adventure.

Additionally, livestock belonging to the semi-nomadic Masai tribe can be seen grazing alongside wild animals.

"Our guide Emmanuel was incredible — he spotted a leopard and two lion cubs that three other vehicles completely missed. The most magical experience of our lives."
"The private setup meant we could spend 45 minutes with a cheetah and cubs without feeling rushed. The lodges were far beyond what we expected."
"As first-time safari travelers, we were nervous. From the moment we arrived, Serengeti African Tours took care of everything. The Ngorongoro Crater literally took our breath away."
"Booked through SafariBookings and couldn't be happier. Every detail was handled perfectly. Guide Abouh is extraordinary — his knowledge of wildlife is encyclopaedic."
