Marvel at Maasai Warriors jumping in celebration of life.

Day 6NgorongoroInto Africa's Eden
Descend into the crater for a full-day game drive. Ngorongoro Crater is technically a caldera-the world's largest unflooded one, in fact-at more than 2,000 feet deep with a floor covering over 102 square miles. Game viewing here is fantastic, as most of the animals stay in this area year round. You can see lion, hyena, hippo, elephant, and more. This is also your best chance to see the rare black rhinoceros. An exclusive [LF] bush lunch will be served in the crater.

LOCAL FAVORITE
CRATER CATERING Because of the time it takes to descend into and ascend out of the crater it's normal to eat lunch in the crater. Standard fare is a box lunch but why settle when you can have and exclusive, fresh booked lunch served under a grove of Acacia trees?
Day 7Serengeti National ParkOn the Endless Plains
Drive to Serengeti National Park, Tanzania's largest and most famous park. The Serengeti covers an area of roughly 5,700 square miles, so it is no surprise that the name comes from the Maasai word siringit, meaning 'endless plains.' Enjoy lunch at your tented camp before an afternoon game drive. You have the chance to see the big cats-lion, leopard, and cheetah-as well as an abundance of other animals, including the Nile crocodile, giraffe, gazelle, and eland. With some luck you may even spot something much rarer, like a caracal, a beautiful cat with distinctive ears.
