  • After breakfast, go for a full-day game drive across the famous  Serengeti National Park with packed lunch boxes until sunset. It is in this park that more than six million hooves pound the legendary  “endless plains.”  Every year, triggered by rains, more than a million wildebeest, 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson gazelle gather to undertake their long trek to new grazing lands. The rutting season is a frenzied three-week bout of territorial conquest and mating, followed by a survival of the fittest as the 40km long column of animals plunges through crocodile-infested waters on their annual exodus north. The species are replenished during the brief population explosion that produces more than 80,000 calves a day before the 1000km return pilgrimage begins. Return in the late evening and stay the night at  Serengeti Sopa Lodge. Dinner, Lunch, and Bed & Breakfast included  (FB).

They are the most incredible elephants you'll ever see in your life.  ‘‘Ngorongoro Crater’’  is the largest collapsed volcanic crater in the world and fourteen kilometers of isolated natural beauty.
