Witness the world’s largest concentration of elephants. Herds of up to 300 elephants can be seen around the Tarangire River, drinking or enjoying a mud bath. Apart from elephants, Tarangire is a paradise for bird lovers. We will then have our lunch then keep on with game drives.

We'll head to the central park area known as the Seronera area which is one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park.

Day4. Full day game drive

The endless plains and abundance of wildlife are unsurpassed. The annual wildebeest migration of more than a million wildebeest is probably Serengeti's main draw. It is a true spectacle of nature and impressive to see millions of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles thunder across the endless plains of the Serengeti. Then you will have the picnic lunch and keep on with the game drive. If you like to watch wildlife from another perspective, we recommend you go to on a balloon safari.
