Serian Kusini Camp, Serengeti

Serengeti

Day 2: Serengeti National Park The early morning game drive reveals the very heart of the Serengeti’s magic, vast tracts of open grasslands stretching from horizon to horizon filled with wildebeests and their newborn calves. Undoubtedly, it's one of Africa’s most spectacular wildlife events. During a short two to three-week period, over 250,000 wildebeest calves are born and one might be lucky enough to witness and photograph one of these births. This multitude of grazers supports a large number of predators such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, all of which are seen regularly here. You will also spend time searching for the rare and endangered Cape hunting dogs commonly known as “wild dogs”. These animals are so rarely seen today and any sightings or photographs of them are indeed priceless. Game drives are in comfortable and well-outfitted four-wheel drive vehicles manned by experienced and knowledgeable local guides. Sumptuous picnic breakfasts and lunches are carried on board the vehicles together with all sorts of refreshments. Picnic stops are carefully planned by your guides to maximize the best views of the open plains and wildebeest migration. You then retire to your camp at sunset for a drink and a tale or two around an iconic African campfire followed by a candlelit dinner.
