Day 2: Arusha to Central Serengeti
After breakfast, you drive toward Serengeti National Park. As you enter the park, the endless golden plains stretch as far as the eye can see. Research from the Serengeti Research Institute highlights how this ecosystem supports millions of grazing animals and large predator populations.
An afternoon game drive begins immediately. Lions resting under acacia trees, cheetahs scanning the horizon, and elephants moving gracefully across the plains are common sightings.
Day 3: Full Day Game Drive in Serengeti
This full day is dedicated to exploring prime wildlife areas. Early morning and late afternoon drives increase your chances of seeing predators in action. Data shared by the National Geographic Society emphasizes how predator-prey interactions here are among the most intense in Africa.
Depending on the season, you may witness large herds of wildebeest and zebras. Conservation groups like the African Parks Network and Wildlife Conservation Society continue to study and protect these vital wildlife corridors.
Day 4: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Conservation Area
After a final morning game drive, you head toward the Ngorongoro highlands. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, supported by institutions such as the Food and Agriculture Organization, works to balance wildlife conservation and local community livelihoods.
You will enjoy panoramic views of the crater rim before settling into your lodge for the night.
Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater Safari
The descent into the crater is one of the highlights of the 6 Days Serengeti Edge Safari. The crater floor hosts dense wildlife populations within a relatively small area. According to studies referenced by Encyclopaedia Britannica, this natural amphitheater supports lions, rhinos, buffalos, and hippos.
Because of its unique structure, wildlife viewing here is often close and clear. You will enjoy a picnic lunch near a hippo pool before ascending back to the rim.
Day 6: Return to Arusha and Departure
After breakfast, you drive back to Arusha for your departure. If time allows, you can visit local cultural centers supported by initiatives such as the United Nations Environment Programme to understand how conservation and tourism work together.
