Take a morning flight from Zanzibar to the Central Serengeti (duration ~2–2.5 hrs with a possible brief stopover in Arusha; exact timings depend on the flight carrier booked). Upon arrival at Seronera Airstrip, your guide will greet you for a half-day game drive through the rich river valleys and open savannah of the Central Serengeti. Expect to spot prides of lions, herds of elephants, hippos, and possibly elusive leopards lounging in sausage trees. After a packed picnic lunch, continue exploring before heading to your lodge for dinner and overnight in the heart of big cat territory.

After an early breakfast, drive (~3–4 hrs) south into the Ndutu area, located in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This region is the seasonal epicenter of the wildebeest calving season (typically from late December to March). Over 8,000 calves are born here daily during the peak — a breathtaking spectacle that attracts predators such as hyenas, lions, and cheetahs. Enjoy game drives across the open plains and around Lakes Ndutu and Masek. Your guide may take you off-road — permitted in this area — for close-range wildlife encounters. Enjoy a picnic bush lunch and return to your camp as the sun sets.

Keep your eyes peeled for bat-eared foxes, jackals, and large raptor birds. Enjoy an afternoon game drive around the Seronera River Valley, known for its year-round water source and dense wildlife concentration. You’ll arrive at your lodge in time for dinner.
