Have a lunch at one of the local places in Arusha or come back home safely to Bay Leaf to enjoy their incredible food!

Day 7, 8 & 9
Serengeti National Park – Game drive – Balloon Flight – Olakira Camp

Honeymoon SafariFrom the NgoroNgoro Crater you will drive towards the Serengeti National Park. You will only realize that you have entered in the Serengeti when you are in the middle of endless plains. The migration is expected in the central Serengeti this time of the year, and the mobile Olakira Camp is therefore at the best location for having the best chances of seeing the Migration. Hopefully you will get right in the middle of them. You will stay 3 nights at Olakira Camp and you can go for as much game drives as you like. On top of this you will make a hot air balloon flight over the Serengeti National Park. Most likely you will witness the Migration from out of the air and afterwards you will enjoy a champagne breakfast in the middle of the Serengeti.

Olakira Camp is a safari style bush camp with no more than half a dozen tents. Imagine freshly baked bread in the middle of nowhere, bush luxury in the style of the early explorers, and an excellent team of friendly staff who will make sure you are as comfortable as possible. The tents are tastefully furnished and the atmosphere of this camp is incomparable. Africa at it’s best.
