After breakfast, we headed to the northernmost tip of Serengeti National Park, also known as Wagakuria. We will do the driving game on the road from Lobo area to Wagakuria area. As we head north, giraffes, the usual game, herds of buffalo and elephants are often seen.

We arrived on time for lunch at the lodge and after lunch we would drive for an afternoon game in the area. Migratory wildebeest are usually found in the Wagakuria region from mid-July to October, depending on rainfall. A long stretch of the Mara River runs through the northern part of the Serengeti National Park, and the Mara River presents the most difficult migration obstacle. Witnessing herds of wildebeest frantically crossing the Mara River was incredible.

After breakfast, guests can drive all day in the Wagakuria/Kogatende region. The population of resident wildlife is particularly high in this part of the park, with numbers boasting up to 30 lions, however, from mid-July to October the area transforms into a paradise. wild animals. The key attraction is the Mara River and it is not uncommon to see herds crossing the Mara River north one day and then back south a few days later.

Remember, finding a crossing is difficult and sometimes a matter of luck. A herd can be seen next to the river and only decide whether to cross or not to pass a few days later. The area is a beautiful area with kopjes, woodlands, river vegetation and open plains, similar to the Masai Mara Game Reserve in Kenya.

DAY 06: NGORONGORO CRATER– MOSHI/ARUSHA

After breakfast, go down to the crater with lunch and enjoy the driving game for more than 7 hours. Millions of years ago, a volcano the size of Mount Kilimanjaro rose from the northern highlands of Tanzania. Its eruption formed the largest unexpanded crater in the world, Ngorongoro Crater. Now dormant and full of wildlife, the crater is a playground where you can enjoy driving games in search of the Big Five.

The natural protection of the walls of the 600 m (1,968 ft) caldera, 'Ngorongoro Crater', which thrives on many species, is one of the most densely populated areas of African wildlife in the world and home to around 30,000 species of animals and this is the best place in Tanzania to see the critically endangered black rhino. The park is supported by a year-round supply of water and fodder, and the crater is home to a wide variety of animals including herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalo, elk, and zebras, hippopotamus and giant African elephant.

Another big tag for this beautiful national park is its huge predator population, including lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the elusive tier of the Leopard Crater. After the picnic, you will have a game drive. After the hunting trip, we returned to Arusha/Moshi for an overnight stay.
