DAY 2: SERENGETI (Central) – EASTERN SERENGETI (East of the Grumeti River and Naabi Hill)- CENTRAL SERENGETI

After breakfast, drive all day in the game in the Eastern Serengeti. Wildebeest usually reside in the northeastern Serengeti and migrate further south in December. Gol Kopjes, located in the eastern plains, is home to the highest densities of cheetahs in Africa during the rainy season. Most Serengeti leopards are migratory, with many following the Thomson's gazelle migrating to the eastern shortgrass plains during the wet season and then to the central Serengeti (plain/forest border) during the dry season.
During the rainy season, the eastern plains are the best place to see cheetahs in the Serengeti and in the whole of Africa. During an all-day drive to GOL kopjes, you may encounter several groups of cheetahs. Cheetahs are daily (diurnal) predators and if you're lucky you'll see the world's fastest land animal in action.
Besides cheetahs, the eastern plains are home to the largest concentration of hyenas during the green season. Large herds of up to 30 hyenas are regularly spotted from Naabi Hills in the east through Gol Kopjes and Lemuta Hills. Hyenas, the most abundant predator in the entire ecosystem, are semi-nomadic and 'migrate' to the eastern plains during the rainy season from their nests in the central Serengeti.
Lion populations are also high in the eastern plains during the rainy season. Most of the Serengeti lions are resident but a significant portion are nomadic (about 20%) and they follow the animals that migrate to the plains every rainy season. However, lions are rarely seen east of Lemuta and they are much easier to see inside the Serengeti area, including the Gol Kopjes area. After lunch, you will continue to watch the game in Serengeti towards central Serengeti during the night. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Camp or Lodge. All meals included.

DAY 3: CENTRAL SERENGETI – NGORONGORO CRATER RIM

Continue your morning and afternoon game drives at the Serengeti with mid-afternoon lunch and a relaxing break at the lodge. The term Serengeti means endless plains in the Maasai language. In the central plains, there are carnivores such as leopards, lions, hyenas and cheetahs. This park is often the site of the annual wildebeest and zebra migration that occurs between the Kenyan Mara and the Serengeti. Various birds can be seen here including eagles, ducks, geese, storks, vultures, secretary birds, ibis, storks, herons, kites, pelicans, cranes and guinea fowl. Serengeti National Park is said to be the best known wildlife sanctuary in the world with over 3 million large mammals. About 35 species of delta animals can be seen here, including the "big 5" - elephants, rhinos, lions, leopards and buffalo.
Other common species found here include hippos, giraffes, eland, impala and antelopes, baboons, monkeys and countless more than 500 species of birds. In May or early June, huge herds of wildebeest, antelope and zebra begin their spectacular annual northward migration. In their wake, watch for predators, lions, cheetahs, and wild dogs with vultures hovering overhead!
