Day 5 & 8: Mara River Crossing Safari

Spend the 4 days exploring the Wildebeest Migration Movements and potential Mara River crossing activity.
Around 1.5 million to 2 million animals move together in the Great Migration across the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem.

It is important to note that these two million animals do not travel in one single, compact block. Instead, they split up into sprawling mega-herds, smaller cohorts, and continuous single-file columns that can stretch out for miles—so vast they can actually be seen from space.

At any given point along the migration route, a single moving column might consist of tens of thousands of individuals bunched together.



Day 9: Drive to Karatu

After breakfast, depart from Serengeti National Park and drive through the scenic Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Karatu town. Arrive in the late afternoon and check-in at Rim View Inn Karatu, where you will enjoy a delicious hot dinner and a relaxing overnight stay.



Day 10: Lake Manyara Game Drive, Drop off in Arusha Town.
At around 7:00 a.m., depart for Lake Manyara National Park with your lunch box, followed by a half day game drive in the lake Manyara National Park.

Lake Manyara National Park features iconic tree-climbing lions, vast herds of elephants, thousands of pink flamingos, the scenic Lake Manyara Treetop Walkway, and the bubbling Maji Moto Hot Springs, all framed by the dramatic Great Rift Valley escarpment.

The hippo attraction at Lake Manyara National Park centers around the famous Lake Manyara Hippo Pool, a permanent freshwater pool near the northern shore fed by the Simba River. It features a raised viewing platform where visitors safely watch large pods of hippos wallow.

In the afternoon, after lunch at a picnic site, leave the park for Arusha town. Upon arrival, you will be dropped off at Venice Hotel.
