Location

Serengeti National Park

'Serengeti' means endless plains in Maasai language. In the central plains, there are carnivores like leopards, lions, hyenas, and cheetahs. This park is normally the scene of the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra that occurs between the Kenyan Mara and the Serengeti. Varied bird species can be seen including eagles, ducks, geese, egrets, vultures, secretary birds, ibis, storks, herons, kites, pelicans, cranes, and guinea fowl.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is located between Serengeti and Lake Manyara. It is home to the famous Ngorongoro Crater, which is the largest unbroken caldera in the world, with an area of 260 kilometers and a depth of 610 meters.

The crater provides a protected habitat for thousands of mammals and birds, including lions, hyenas, wildebeest, zebras, black rhinoceros, and many species of small antelopes. There are around 1000 lions in the crater, approximately 20 black rhinos, and the spectacular Lerai Forest is one of the best places in Africa to spot leopards.

The crater is a spectacular setting in which to experience your African safari. It is one of the few places in Africa where you stand a very good chance of seeing The Big Five during a game drive. The local Maasai have permission to graze their cattle on the Crater floor, and it is not unusual to see Maasai cattle and buffalo grazing together with lions mere meters away.
