Its landscape varies from open grass plains in the south, savanna with scattered acacia trees in the centre, hilly, wooded grassland in the north, to extensive woodland and black clay plains to the west.
Depending on your preference, there are a couple of options with regards to how your day is structured in the Serengeti. One option could be to start your day with an early morning Balloon excursion followed with picnic breakfast at the end, second option is to break camp early and head out with a picnic breakfast on a morning game drive, returning to camp in time for lunch. Alternatively, you can eat breakfast in camp and head out with a picnic lunch on an afternoon game drive, returning in the mid-afternoon. In the evening transfer back to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay. (with lunch, dinner & breakfast)
After an early breakfast, pack your bags and depart with your driver to Ngorongoro Crater, an early start to the day is best in order to avoid the later influx of tourists into the Ngorongoro Crater. The park gate opens at 0600, so it is best to be there as close to this time as possible. There are a number of lions which are typically larger in size than an average lion due the large amount of game in the area. The crater floor tends to get very busy, with large number of vehicles at any wildlife sighting.
The Ngorongoro Crater is a large, unbroken, un-flooded caldera, formed when a giant volcano erupted and collapsed some three million years ago. Had it not become a caldera, it is possible that the volcanic mountain would be about the same height as Kilimanjaro. The caldera is 600m deep, 16km across and 265 sq km in area. Enjoy the spectacular scenery and game viewing, in what has been described as the eighth wonder of the world. Many of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhino can be seen grazing on the open grassland of the crater floor, surrounded by some of the 25,000 large animals that occupy the crater, including lion, cheetah, wildebeest, eland, zebra and gazelle. Flamingo, among other bird species, can often be seen feeding at Makat Soda Lake as well. Late Afternoon drive to your lodge for your overnight stay. (with lunch, dinner & breakfast)

After an early breakfast, leave camp for the relatively unknown Empakaai Crater, 40km north east of its more famous neighbor, the Ngorongoro Crater. A 1 hour, 15-minute drive through the beautiful Bulbul Depression will lead you the Empakaai rim, where you will be treated to splendid views of the crater and a glimpse of Oldoinyo Lengai, Tanzania’s most active volcano. It is here that you will meet an NCA ranger and begin the 30-45-minute descent, watching out for buffalo, hyena and elephant in the forest. Once on the crater floor, the lake offers superb birding and the chance to see the famous flamingos that form a salmon pink band around the lakeshore. For the more adventurous, the walk around the 6km lake takes around 4 hours; otherwise begin the ascent back to the vehicle and stop off to visit one of the local Maasai communities on the drive back to your lodge, offering an insight into the traditional way of life that has defined this corner of East Africa for centuries.
