   We leave Arusha after breakfast and climb into the Ngorongoro highlands, stopping for about 20 minutes at the crater viewpoint.

   On the way you can visit a Maasai village (20–45 minutes). It is optional and paid for locally, and plenty of guests skip it.

   We reach Seronera in the central Serengeti in the late afternoon and game-drive until sunset, when big cats are often on the move, then set up camp.
