The name Serengeti is derived from the Maasai word siringet, which means endless plains.

Day 15 Serengeti-Ngorongoro - BLD
Your first stop today is at Ol Duvai Gorge. After excavating the site for more than 28 years, Mary and Louis Leaky unearthed one of the world's most dramatic discoveries: the partial skull of ?Nutcracker Man?, dating back 1.75 million years.

The crater is one of the best places to spot black rhino - but giraffes are absent as there is insufficient food available for them. - Ngorongoro Serena Lodge

Day 17 Ngorongoro-Lake Manyara - BLD
