On Day 1, we will immerse ourselves in the beauty of Lake Manyara National Park. After an early breakfast, we’ll embark on a game drive to search for the “Big Five” mammals. Located at the base of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara offers a stunning variety of landscapes, from golden savannahs to mighty rivers and lush shrubbery. We’ll enjoy a picnic lunch in the heart of the park, surrounded by this breathtaking scenery. Soda Lake and its surrounding savannah are home to a rich, diverse ecosystem, including migratory ones, making it a birdwatcher’s paradise. The park is also home to the famous tree-climbing lions, water buffalo, elephants, giraffes, impalas, and hippos.

The golden savannah and endless plains, teeming with zebras, wildebeest and giraffes make it easy to understand why the Serengeti is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa. On this day, we will enjoy a picnic lunch on Naabai kopje (a small, rocky hill in a generally flat area), where you will have the opportunity to view the Serengeti’s famous pink-headed lizards.

If you're patient and a little lucky, you may even get to witness the death-defying crossing itself where wildebeest and zebras brave the river's currents and crocodiles in an attempt to reach safety.

Along the way, you'll spot everything from the enigmatic dik-diks to towering elephants, and everything in between. The Seronera is often known as 'big cat country', and its kopjes and acacias provide an excellent opportunity to spot prides of lazy lions, sleek cheetahs out on the hunt, and leopards overseeing everything from their lofty perches. The region's hippo pools and wide-open spaces provide ample opportunities for game viewing. Dinner and overnight in the heart of the Serengeti National Park.

The crater's ecosystem, a true animal "oasis," increases our chances of seeing all of "The Big Five" – lion, elephant, leopard, rhino, and water buffalo. Formed over two million years ago by a collapsed volcano, Ngorongoro Crater is a natural marvel. Inside the caldera, we’ll encounter zebras, hippos, wildebeests, and hyenas.
