The Route
Day by Day
An early flight from Zanzibar deposits you in the Northern Serengeti by midday. Afternoon game drives begin along the Mara River, where the migration spectacle unfolds with staggering regularity during the peak crossing season. Your camp offers front-row access to some of the most dramatic wildlife corridors in Africa.
Where you'll stay
An uninterrupted day following the migration herds. Dawn reveals the Mara in its most magical light — silent except for the grunting of wildebeest gathering along the banks. Your guide reads the landscape expertly, positioning you for the crossings as well as for predator activity, birding, and the quieter wonders of the savannah.
Where you'll stay
A game drive transfer from north to central. As you move through the Serengeti's shifting ecosystems — from the riverine woodlands of the north to the iconic open plains of the central park — the landscape changes around you and new wildlife takes centre stage. Arrive at your central Serengeti lodge in time for sundowners and dinner.
Where you'll stay
The Central Serengeti is the iconic heartland of the park — endless golden plains, kopje-dotted ridges, and some of the finest lion and cheetah territory in all of Africa. Spend the full day on morning and afternoon drives, discovering how different — and equally magnificent — this zone of the Serengeti is compared to the north.
Where you'll stay
A dawn game drive across the central plains before your transfer to the airstrip. The flight back to Zanzibar completes an extraordinary five-day journey through two of the Serengeti's most celebrated ecosystems. The island's warm welcome awaits.
