Serengeti National Park
Experience the Untamed Wild of Tanzania’s Iconic Safari Land
Why Visit Serengeti?
Serengeti National Park is Tanzania’s most celebrated wildlife destination — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa. Known for the Great Wildebeest Migration, vast savannahs, and an abundance of predators, the Serengeti delivers one of the most authentic and unforgettable safari experiences in the world.
Whether it’s watching lions hunt on the open plains or witnessing thousands of wildebeest crossing the Mara River, the Serengeti is where safari dreams come to life.
🐾 Wildlife in Serengeti
The Serengeti is home to:
The Big Five: lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, rhino
Over 1.5 million wildebeest and 200,000 zebras
Cheetahs, hyenas, giraffes, crocodiles, hippos, and over 500 bird species
Each season offers a different wildlife spectacle — from calving in the south to river crossings in the north.
Best Time to Visit Serengeti
June to October – Dry season and the best time for wildlife viewing and river crossings in Northern Serengeti
December to March – Calving season in Southern Serengeti; great for predator action
April to May – Green season with fewer crowds, lush landscapes, and birdwatching
