Lake Manyara to Serengeti National Park
After breakfast early on, you're heading to Serengeti National Park. The drive takes a while, but it's quite scenic once you arrive. The park's name actually means 'endless plains' in the local language, and you'll see why it fits. This 6,900 square mile area holds millions of wildebeests and hundreds of thousands of zebras, plus major predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards that call it home.
