Spend a full day exploring Lake Manyara National Park, back dropped by the spectacular Great Rift Valley.

Set out on a full-day game drive to explore the panoramic, short-grass prairies along the crater floor, home to rare black rhinos as well as lions, hyenas and gazelles.

Drive to Serengeti National Park, pausing for a privately guided visit at archaeologically rich Olduvai Gorge en route. The vast Tanzanian landscape hosts one of earth’s last remaining wildlife spectacles: the annual Great Migration, when a staggering number of herbivores trek across the Serengeti plains in search of water and fresh grass, hungry predators following in their wake. Over the next two days, your adventure may reveal giraffes, wildebeests, elephants and much more on morning and afternoon game drives through the boundless Serengeti, home of one of the largest wildlife populations in the world. Keep your camera at the ready for a flash of cheetahs, herd of buffalo or pride of lions. Have a chance to see over 500 species of birds, among them eagles, who glide effortlessly above the sun-soaked landscape. Accommodation - Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti | Meals: B L D

After settling into your lodge or tented accommodations within the Masai Mara, the northern extension of the Serengeti, immerse yourself in the wild during an afternoon game drive.

Join fellow guests for cocktails, followed by an elegant, informative dinner highlighting the days ahead. Accommodation - Sanctuary Olonana Luxury Tented Camp | Meals: B L D
Spend two full days exploring the open savanna, woodlands and tree-fringed rivers of the Masai Mara, where patience is rewarded with unique sightings: leopards, which retrieve kills from acacia branches high above, or elephants protecting their young from opportunistic lions. Game viewing is never dull in the Mara, especially when the dramatic, annual Great Migration unfolds. Keep your eyes trained for elephant, zebra and lion sightings as well as a variety of gazelle species. Amid stunning scenery and inspiring wildlife, see Maasai tribesmen traverse the plains or herd goats and cattle. Accommodation - Sanctuary Olonana Luxury Tented Camp | Meals: B L D
