Day 4 Full-Day Game Drive Explore the Wildlife of Serengeti National Park

Day’s Highlight Today, we set off from our accommodation in Central Serengeti. Wildlife is abundant: sometimes you may think it has come to find you, rather than the other way round. Today’s highlight is unknown, as the animals don’t publish their schedule (!) What we see also depends on the season, but this area is where bushland meets grassland, a favorite spot for big cats looking for prey. Cheetahs, leopard and lions are all possibilities today. Big Five Safari in Serengeti National Park (Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Buffalo, and Black Rhino) The day will begin in the center of the majestic Serengeti. After a nourishing breakfast, we will continue our journey into the plains.

This day will likely offer sightings of the African mammals that make the park famous- lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs, and water buffalo, all within a few feet of the jeep.
