The Seronera River valley is a well-known wildlife and birdlife-rich region in the center of Serengeti. You expect to see a lot of animals including lions, leopards, zebras, buffaloes, topis, gazelles, etc. Depending on the location of the wildebeests you also may encounter extremely large crowds of the wildebeests (please ask your guide for the best location to spot them).

Day 2: Full day at the Serengeti National Park

Early morning game drives can be done on this morning at dawn if you can wake up early. Talk to our guide the evening before. Sunrise game drives give the perfect opportunity to catch up with the rare nocturnal animal species that are more active during the night as well as the early risers amongst the diurnal species. It is a nice time to see animals within a close distance as most game like to line up at the roadsides to escape the morning dew.

After breakfast at your camp or lodge, you will then spend the whole day in the Serengeti National Park. Alternatively, you may choose to do morning and sunset game drives with a midday break for lunch and relaxation at the lodge/camp.

The name Serengeti comes from the Maasai word ‘Siringit’ which translates to ‘plains without end’ and true to the name you will explore vast stretches of the African savannah viewing the many animals and birds that Serengeti has to offer. Serengeti is home to more than 1.5 million wildebeests but that is not all. You expect to spot other animals including lions, cheetahs, elephants, the elusive leopards, zebras, elands topis, warthogs, impalas, and many others.

The name Manyara is a Masai word that translates to the euphorbia tirucalli tree species which the famous nomadic Maasai tribe use to make hedges in order to protect their homesteads and cattle. The park is highlighted by lots of these trees but it is the legendary tree-climbing lions which are often spotted taking afternoon nap on the acacia tree branches that makes this park unique. Other animals common in this park include the Thompson gazelles, zebras, impalas, giraffes buffaloes, and impalas.

From the entrance of this lush green park is an underground water forest and a perfect habitat for the baboons, Blue monkeys, bushbucks, and the huge elephant herds sheltering in the sheds from the afternoon sun and devouring the green branches and twigs and herbs.
