Serengeti
Yyou will make several safaris, by open jeep. Millions of animals migrate to this park all year round, with many predators in their wake. An unforgettable adventure in the middle of nature.
Ndutu (December to March) is located just south of Serengeti National Park, the perfect habitat for the wandering herds of wildebeest, antelopes and zebras. But also from the leopard, lion, cheetah and caracal and serval cat.
The north (July to October) is green all year round, which is why the millions of ungulates come here when the rest is dry and arid. Their crossing over the Mara River is spectacular, full of lurking crocodiles.
Back on Zanzibar
From Serengeti National Park you fly back to tropical Zanzibar Island and you will be taken back to your lodge from the airport at Stone Town.
But if you also want to experience the old cultural heart of Stone Town, while you’re here, then commit to a night in this bustling city – on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
