6-Day West & Central Serengeti Safari from Arusha

Fly from Arusha to Central Serengeti in the morning (flight duration ~1.5 hrs, schedule depends on carrier). After lunch, begin your game drive in Seronera Valley. This region is famous for lion sightings and resident wildlife. Settle into your camp and enjoy your first sunset in the wild.

Drive westward across the plains (~3.5 hrs) to reach the Grumeti River area in Western Serengeti. Depending on the season (May–July), herds may gather here to cross the crocodile-infested river. Explore the woodlands and riverbanks teeming with elephants, topi, and hippos.

Full-day safari in the Grumeti region. You may see massive crocodiles basking on riverbanks, large prides of lions, and in-season migration herds. The area is known for low tourist density and rich game viewing. Enjoy lunch under the shade of acacia trees before returning to camp.

Another game drive along the Grumeti River and surrounding grasslands. The day can be tailored to your preferences — spend more time tracking lions, birdwatching near wetlands, or photographing hippos. Guides adapt based on recent wildlife movements.

Drive back east to Central Serengeti (~3.5 hrs), enjoying game viewing along the way. The Central region offers scenic views and dense wildlife concentrations. Late afternoon at leisure or optional sunset drive. Overnight at your central camp.

Morning safari in Seronera or nearby woodlands. After breakfast, head to the airstrip for your return flight to Arusha. The journey ends with sweeping aerial views of the savannah below.
