Highlights

Serengeti is the stage for one of the most spectacular wildlife phenomena on the planet – the Great Migration. Millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles traverse the plains, crossing rivers and facing predators in their cyclical journey in search of fresh grazing lands.

The vast grassy plains of the Serengeti are iconic, providing an uninterrupted view of the horizon and serving as the backdrop for the incredible wildlife dramas that unfold. The plains are dotted with acacia trees, offering shade to animals and picturesque scenes for observers.

Serengeti boasts an impressive population of the Big Five – lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and rhinoceros. The park's varied landscapes provide optimal habitats for these iconic species, ensuring rewarding wildlife sightings.

These rocky outcrops, known as kopjes, punctuate the plains, offering elevated vantage points for predators and unique habitats for various species. Kopjes are particularly picturesque during sunrise and sunset.
