Day by Day Itinerary

Day 1: Mwanza to West Serengeti (Grumeti Area)

Your safari begins with a scenic drive from Mwanza, situated on the southern shores of Lake Victoria, heading westwards towards the Western Serengeti in the Grumeti area. This journey covers approximately 160 kilometres and typically takes around 4 to 5 hours, depending on road conditions and wildlife viewing stops along the way.

The Grumeti region is known for its diverse landscapes of open plains, dense woodlands, and the Grumeti River itself, which attracts a variety of wildlife. As you travel, keep an eye out for herds of wildebeest, zebra, and various predators, especially during the migration season. This area offers quieter game viewing than the more central parts of the park, with excellent opportunities to spot big cats and birdlife in their natural habitats.

This private safari is designed to offer your family a comfortable pace, allowing time for wildlife spotting and breaks suitable for all ages. Your expert guide will tailor the experience to your interests while ensuring a smooth and engaging journey into the heart of the Western Serengeti.

Arriving at your lodge or camp in the late afternoon, you can relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, preparing for a full day of game drives ahead in this iconic region.

The Grumeti River corridor is a key habitat for large herds of wildebeest and zebra, particularly during the migration months, and is frequented by predators such as lions, leopards, and crocodiles.
