From the open roof of your safari jeep, experience the seasonal swamps, savanna, and life-giving Tarangire River endeavouring to encounter a multitude of creatures from zebras to wildebeests, buffalos, elephants, and giraffes, to name but a few.

Day 3:Tarangire to Serengeti

After an early breakfast, you'll depart for the most famous national park in the world. The drive itself, although long, is spectacular.

This will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time. As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in the local language, "endless plains."

The park has 6,900 sq miles (18,000 sq km) and for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon defying your senses and perception of distances.

It is the home of the Great Migration where 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras and all kinds of antelopes cross annually. As for big cats and large predators, it's the place of choice to look out for lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, with many television scenes like the famous River Crossings having been filmed in this park.
