After arriving, enjoy a hot picnic lunch before setting out on an afternoon game drive. The Serengeti is home to an incredible concentration of wildlife, including lions, elephants, leopards, cheetahs, buffalo, giraffes, and countless plains game. If conditions are favorable, you may even spot all members of the famous Big Five during your exploration.
