Serengeti National Park – Tanzania’s Greatest Safari Destination

The Serengeti National Park in northern Tanzania is one of Africa’s most famous and spectacular wildlife destinations. In our opinion, it is one of the greatest safari areas left on earth.

Together with the Maasai Mara in Kenya, the Serengeti forms part of the vast Serengeti–Mara ecosystem — one of the most important and productive wildlife areas in the world. This is big-sky Africa at its best: endless plains, huge herds, dramatic predator action and some of the finest safari viewing anywhere on the continent.

The Serengeti is best known for the Great Wildebeest Migration, but it is far more than a migration destination. With resident wildlife throughout the year, superb big cat viewing, beautiful landscapes and a huge variety of camps and lodges, the Serengeti is a destination every safari lover should experience at least once.

5 Reasons to Visit the Serengeti

1. The Endless Plains of Africa

The Serengeti is famous for its vast open grasslands, huge skies and classic East African safari scenery.

2. The Greatest Migration on Earth

The Serengeti is the stage for most of the Great Wildebeest Migration, with enormous herds moving through the park throughout the year.

3. Big Cat Country

The Serengeti is one of Africa’s best places to see lion, cheetah and leopard, often in wide open landscapes that make sightings especially memorable.

4. A Photographer’s Dream Safari

Golden light, dramatic skies, predator action, river crossings and sweeping plains make the Serengeti one of the world’s great wildlife photography destinations.

5. A Safari That Changes With the Seasons

From calving season in the south to river crossings in the north, the Serengeti offers a completely different safari experience depending on when and where you visit.

Places to Stay in the Serengeti

You can also compare up to 3 different safari camps and lodges at once to help find the right camp or lodge for your trip, and we send your enquiry to 3 selected different property specialists, saving you the trouble of doing it yourself.

One of the things we love most about the Serengeti is the variety of safari accommodation available across the park.

From luxury lodges and intimate tented camps to seasonal mobile camps that move with the migration, there is something here for every style of traveller.

Best Time to Visit the Serengeti

The best time to visit the Serengeti depends on what you want to see.

For the Great Wildebeest Migration, the Serengeti offers different experiences at different times of year. From around January to March, the herds are usually in the southern Serengeti and Ndutu area for the calving season. This is an incredible time for predator action, with thousands of young wildebeest being born on the open plains.

From around April to June, the migration moves north and west through the Serengeti. The western corridor can be excellent at this time, especially as the herds move towards the Grumeti River.

Wildlife & Photography

For wildlife photographers, the Serengeti is one of the finest destinations in Africa.

The open landscapes, soft golden light, huge skies and abundance of wildlife create extraordinary photographic opportunities throughout the year.

The Great Wildebeest Migration

The Great Wildebeest Migration is one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on earth and one of the main reasons people travel to the Serengeti.

Each year, huge herds of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle move through the Serengeti–Mara ecosystem in search of fresh grazing and water. They are followed closely by lion, cheetah, leopard, hyena and other predators.

What makes the Serengeti so special is that much of the migration happens inside Tanzania. The herds are constantly moving, and the best place to be depends on the season.
