Your journey begins with an early morning flight from Arusha, Dar es Salaam, or Zanzibar directly into the Northern Serengeti, where the air is crisp and anticipation builds.

The afternoon is spent on a thrilling game drive, where you witness the dynamic interplay of wildlife against a backdrop of endless savannah.
Day 2 is dedicated to the river crossing – a day filled with excitement as you watch, with expert guidance, as herds of wildebeest and zebras navigate the crocodile-infested waters of the Mara.
On Day 3, explore further into the Northern Serengeti with morning and afternoon game drives, capturing intimate moments of predator activity and serene wildlife congregations, all while enjoying a leisurely pace and a refreshing picnic lunch in the bush.
