Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a full-day game drive. The crater floor teems with wildlife including lions, rhinos, elephants, hyenas, zebras, and flamingos. Enjoy a picnic lunch by the lake and take in the incredible landscape before returning to your lodge.

After breakfast, take a scenic flight to the Serengeti—Ndutu (Jan–Mar) or Kogatende (Jun–Oct)—depending on the Great Migration’s location. Upon arrival, enjoy a game drive en route to camp. Afternoon or full-day drives are scheduled based on the herds’ movement.
