After orientation, you will drive around in search of wildlife in different parts of the park.

After lunch, you may opt to continue searching for wildlife for a couple of hours (game drive), or head to the camp to check in.

DAY 3: Northern Serengeti
To visit an amazingly beautiful part of Serengeti Park, plan to start your day early, as the park opens at 6:00 am. Wildlife is good at energy conservation and can adapt its movements and activities in cooler temperatures. The camp will accommodate breakfast as early as we request; you can choose from the buffet, or the chef can make breakfast to order; attentive waiters and waitresses ensure the best service. After breakfast, we will depart for the morning game drive. Capture the beauty of the morning and evening light to take stunning photographs. Explore the incredible sunrise over Africa and its flora and fauna. After lunch at the camp, takes a siesta for a couple of hours during the hot part of the day. Depart again for a game drive for a couple of hours when the sun cools down.
Dinner & overnight – Kati Kati Mara Tented Camp. (All meals included.)
DAY 4: Northern Serengeti – Central Serengeti
You will see the changing habitat from the Northern part of the park to the Central Serengeti. Check out after breakfast as you will stay in a different part of the park for the next two days. With a packed lunch from the camp, explore the natural beauty of the park and its wildlife on your way to Central Serengeti. Driving in the park is always fascinating; your safari guide will keep you busy by pointing out interesting things and sharing knowledge and expertise. You’ll stop for lunch when you build up an appetite; after lunch, you’ll continue the drive across the most remote areas of the park. Traveling off the beaten path, you’ll have an opportunity to really observe nature and look out for elusive creatures like cats.
Dinner & overnight – Kati Kati Tented Camp. (All meals included.)
DAY 5: Central Serengeti
Start your day after an early breakfast to explore the wilderness with good morning light. Central Serengeti is beautiful; the rock outcrops make fascinating scenery over the open plains. However, they also provide potential hiding places for cats and their newborn cubs. There are six vegetation zones in the Serengeti ecosystem—open plains, rocky outcrops, riverine habitat, swampy areas, open woodland, and dense woodland—which support a variety of wildlife species. The Great Migration likes concentrating on the open plains during the rainy seasons, and the riverine habitat of the Mara River at Kogatende when other parts of the park are dry in the dry season from July – October. The great migration is made up of wildebeest, zebra, and antelopes like gazelles, elands, and topi. These wildlife creatures adopted the habit of migrating due to searching for favorable conditions of water and pasture. After lunch at the camp, take a little rest until the sun cools down, then head out again for a late afternoon game drive. Most visitors like the colors of the sunset in Africa and appreciate the opportunity to take wildlife pictures with the evening light, and sunset with the fascinating landscapes of the Serengeti Park.
Dinner & overnight – Kati Kati Tented Camp. (All meals included.)

Safari Pricing Explained
Why is my safari more expensive with less people in the group?
Safaris are a mixture of fixed costs for the tour company (JAfrica) ie staff, vehicle, food, and external costs which come in the shape of accommodation and park fees etc.
When pricing a safari we divide our fixed cost by the number of people in the safari truck to work out a cost per PAX, then we add on the accomodation and park fees.
This means that the fixed costs are shared by the people travelling, so the more peole in the group, the less the individual is required to pay. If you have any quieries regarding this or anything else about your safari trip to Africa please feel free to contact us.
Please call or email for child pricing, depending on the numbers in your group we can negotiate better room rates with the lodges.
Solo travelers, please email us for the best/latest pricing.
