Begin your safari experience with a scenic game drive across the vast Serengeti plains, famous for their open landscapes and abundant wildlife. Along the way, look out for plains game such as zebra, wildebeest, and giraffe, as well as predators including lions, cheetahs, and leopards that inhabit this remarkable ecosystem.

In the afternoon, depart for a guided game drive during the prime wildlife-viewing hours. As temperatures cool, animals become more active, providing excellent opportunities for sightings and photography in the warm evening light.
Accommodation: Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge
After an early breakfast, depart for a full-day game drive through the heart of the Serengeti, a landscape synonymous with vast horizons, dramatic wildlife encounters, and one of the greatest natural spectacles on Earth. The day is dedicated to exploring key Serengeti habitats, including open grasslands, river systems, and granite kopjes that rise above the plains and provide refuge and vantage points for wildlife.
The central Serengeti is renowned for its year-round wildlife concentrations. Expect to encounter large prides of lions, often seen resting on kopjes or tracking prey across the plains, as well as elephants, buffalo, giraffes, and a variety of antelope species. Cheetahs are frequently spotted scanning the open grasslands, while leopards may be found along riverine trees. Birdlife is abundant, with both resident and migratory species adding to the richness of the ecosystem.
Enjoy a packed picnic lunch at a designated site within the park, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the wilderness, before continuing your exploration in the afternoon. Depending on the season, you may witness vast herds of wildebeest and zebra moving across the plains as part of the Great Migration—one of the Serengeti’s most iconic experiences.
Return to Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge in the early evening, followed by dinner and time to relax beneath the star-filled African sky.
After breakfast, enjoy a final morning in the Serengeti, taking in the last views of the endless plains and surrounding wilderness. Transfer Seronera Airstrip airstrip for your scheduled flight to Zanzibar, marking a smooth transition from safari adventure to coastal relaxation.
