This 11-day migration itinerary visits Serengeti, Northern Serengeti, Ngorongoro. It begins and ends in Arusha, with each park day set out below. The northern Serengeti focus should be matched to your travel dates. Herd movements depend on weather and grazing conditions, and river crossings cannot be scheduled or guaranteed. We will discuss the seasonal route before confirming the trip.
Arrival planning: The itinerary counts safari days. Please confirm an Arusha arrival before the first day, or ask us to arrange an airport transfer and a hotel night. These arrangements are listed separately in your quotation.
Travel towards the Serengeti after an early breakfast. The day includes a substantial road transfer, so your guide will explain the expected timing and arrange meal breaks along the way. Once in the park, take viewing opportunities that fit the arrival time before continuing to your camp or lodge. Longer game drives follow on the full days allocated to the Serengeti. Dinner and overnight arrangements are provided in the final accommodation proposal. The following morning’s departure time is agreed with your guide.
Destination: Serengeti
Accommodation: Camps or lodges selected around the seasonal area of interest; the final route follows the best available planning information.
