Serengeti National Park Safaris
The Serengeti, an ancient animal sanctuary spanning 14,763 square kilometers, is renowned for its lush plains and the Great Migration, a colossal journey of millions of wildebeests, zebras, and other species seeking greener pastures. Divided into three sections, this ecosystem hosts a diverse array of wildlife, including the big five and over 500 bird species. From witnessing the wildebeest birthing to the treacherous river crossings and predator-prey dynamics, it’s a year-round spectacle. The park offers game drives, hot air balloon trips, and stunning sunset views. The best time to visit varies for specific events, but exploring the north during off-peak months can be surreal. With moderate temperatures year-round, it’s a haven for diverse species, including predators, giraffes, crocodiles, and hippos.

Interesting Facts about Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park stands as a captivating testament to the wonders of the natural world, drawing visitors from across the globe to its mesmerizing landscapes. Beyond its reputation as one of the most popular wildlife attractions globally, the park offers a profound connection to history. As herds of Wildebeest gracefully traverse the Serengeti valley, juxtaposed against the remnants of German forts from the First World War, a unique narrative unfolds. This juxtaposition creates an unforgettable spectacle, where the animal kingdom intersects with human history. The vast expanse of the Great Rift Valley, adorned with extinct volcanoes and mountain ridges seamlessly merging into expansive plains, paints a picturesque panorama that extends towards the horizon in the West. These plains gradually transform into tropical forests, eventually leading to the shores of Lake Victoria, one of the largest lakes on Earth. The harmonious coexistence of these diverse elements, both natural and historical, creates an enchanting experience that undoubtedly leaves visitors with a profound sense of magic and awe.

Why visit Serengeti National Park
The Great Wildebeest Migration
The Great Migration happens every year when 1.5 million wildebeests, zebras, gazelles, and other animals form a huge herd and move through the national park looking for greener grass. This is the biggest group of large animals in the world. They start in the south and move in a clockwise direction to the north, with exciting river crossings at the Grumeti and Mara rivers.
