After an early breakfast, you will depart for the Northern Serengeti, following the direction of the wildebeest migration. The Northern Serengeti is an important area during the migration season, particularly around the Mara River. You will spend the day exploring the area and searching for large herds of wildebeest and zebra. If the herds are gathered near the river and conditions are suitable, you may have the opportunity to witness a spectacular Mara River crossing. However, river crossings are natural events and cannot be guaranteed.

You will also have opportunities to see lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo, giraffes, and hyenas.

After a full day of game viewing, return to your camp for dinner and overnight.
