Serengeti National Park
A name that stirs the soul of every wildlife lover, Serengeti National Park is the crown jewel of Tanzania’s safari circuit. Spanning over 14,000 square kilometers, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a land of endless plains, dramatic skies, and one of the most impressive concentrations of wildlife on Earth.
The Serengeti is most famous for the Great Wildebeest Migration, a natural spectacle where over two million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move across the ecosystem in search of fresh grazing, closely followed by predators. Yet the park is far more than just the migration — it’s a place where lions lounge on rocky kopjes, elephants roam ancient paths, and cheetahs chase across golden grasslands.
From sunrise game drives to sundowners under an acacia tree, every moment in the Serengeti feels like a scene from a wildlife documentary — only this time, you’re living it.

Best Time to Visit Serengeti National Park
The Serengeti offers fantastic wildlife viewing throughout the year, but timing your visit with the Great Migration can enhance the experience:
June to October: Dry season, best for general wildlife viewing and river crossings in the north (especially July–August).
December to March: Calving season in the southern Serengeti — expect baby animals and intense predator activity.
April to May: Green season; fewer crowds, lush landscapes, and great photography opportunities — though some roads can be muddy.
Each season in the Serengeti brings a different rhythm of life, making any visit magical in its own way.
Whether it’s your first safari or your fifth, Serengeti National Park offers the kind of wilderness experience that stays with you long after you’ve returned home. It’s not just a destination — it’s a journey into the heart of the wild.
