Zebras and wildebeest in their thousands can be seen as they move on their annual migrations to find fresher grasses. The trip concludes before dark, when you return to your base for dinner and overnight at the Serengeti Camping accommodation site in the park.

The full day of game viewing only halts for the lunch break on the Savannah plains, either as a picnic lunch, or at your base for a warm lunch. The game viewing concentrates in the areas where the migrations will be headed. Hyenas are always on the move stalking young wildebeest calf, while the Lions, cheetahs and jackals would be hunting for gazelle on these African plains.

This safari park boasts of magnificent wildlife and some scenery not found any where on a safari in Tanzania.
