Full Itinerary
Fly into Central Serengeti and Afternoon Game Drive
Your safari begins with a scenic flight from Arusha or Kilimanjaro International Airport into Central Serengeti (Seronera), the most important wildlife hub within Serengeti National Park. Upon arrival, you immediately enter a vast ecosystem of open savannahs, river valleys, and granite kopjes that support year round wildlife concentration. In the afternoon, enjoy a game drive where wildebeest and zebra move across the plains as part of the Great Migration system, closely followed by lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. This region offers some of the best predator viewing in Africa before returning to your tented camp.
Dinner and overnight at Osinon Serengeti Camp
Central Serengeti Migration and Big Cats Tracking Experience
Spend a full day exploring the Central Serengeti migration ecosystem, where millions of wildebeest and zebra move continuously across open plains driven by rainfall and grazing patterns. This movement creates one of the highest predator concentrations in Africa, making it ideal for tracking lions resting on kopjes, cheetahs hunting across open grasslands, and hyenas following migration routes. The Seronera River system attracts permanent wildlife, ensuring excellent sightings throughout the day. Enjoy lunch in a scenic bush setting while immersed in active wildlife movement before continuing your safari experience and returning to your lodge for relaxation and overnight stay.
