Getting There
-
Car
If you are driving from Ngorongoro Crater to Serengeti National Park, start by exiting the Ngorongoro Conservation Area through the Loduare Gate. Follow the signs leading to the Serengeti, which will take you along the Ngorongoro-Serengeti Road. The drive is approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, covering about 50 kilometers. Be aware of potential wildlife crossings during your drive. Once you reach the Seronera area in the Serengeti, you will need to pay the park entrance fee, which is around $70 USD for foreign non-residents. Ensure you have cash available, as card payments may not be accepted.
-
Public Transportation
To travel by public transportation, you can take a matatu (shared taxi) or a bus from Karatu town to the Serengeti. Start by taking a local bus from Ngorongoro to Karatu, which will cost about $1-2 USD and take around 30 minutes. From Karatu, look for a matatu heading to the Serengeti. Make sure to negotiate the fare, which should be approximately $30-40 USD, depending on the number of passengers. The journey from Karatu to the Serengeti can take around 3-4 hours. Upon arrival at the Serengeti gate, you will need to pay the park entrance fee of about $70 USD for foreign non-residents. Be prepared for some waiting time at the entrance.

Safari Tour Operator
For a more comfortable and guided experience, consider booking a safari tour that includes transportation from Ngorongoro Conservation Area to Serengeti National Park. Many tour operators offer packages that include a vehicle, a guide, and park fees. Prices vary widely depending on the length of the tour and the type of vehicle, but expect to pay around $200-300 USD per person for a day trip. This option eliminates the hassle of navigating and dealing with park fees on your own.
