The Endless Plains of Africa
The Serengeti National Park is the very essence of the African safari dream. Its name means "endless plains" in the Maasai language, and the park truly lives up to it — a vast sea of golden grasslands that seem to stretch forever, dotted with acacia trees and granite kopjes. This is one of the oldest and most celebrated ecosystems on Earth, home to the Great Wildebeest Migration and an extraordinary density of wildlife year-round.
In northwestern Tanzania, stretching to the Kenyan border, where it connects seamlessly with the Maasai Mara National Reserve.
Approximately 14,763 sq km — one of Africa's largest and most famous national parks.
The Serengeti hosts one of nature's greatest spectacles — the annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle as they move in a circular pattern in search of fresh grazing. This epic journey, followed closely by lions, cheetahs, and crocodiles, defines the park's rhythm through the seasons.
The Serengeti boasts some of the highest predator densities in Africa, including large prides of lions, elusive leopards, lightning-fast cheetahs, and numerous hyenas. These carnivores play a vital role in maintaining the natural balance of this vast ecosystem.
The park's beauty lies in its diversity — endless grasslands, wooded savannas, riverine forests, and dramatic kopjes (rocky outcrops) that serve as lookouts for predators and sunbathing spots for lions.
The southern Serengeti comes alive as thousands of wildebeest give birth in the short-grass plains. This is a time of intense wildlife action, with predators taking advantage of the vulnerable newborns. The concentration of herbivores and their predators creates extraordinary viewing opportunities.
The dry season brings the most dramatic wildlife spectacle on Earth. Massive herds reach the Grumeti and Mara Rivers in the park's north, where they must cross crocodile-infested waters. The survival drama unfolds before your eyes as predators and river crossings test the herds' determination.
The Serengeti's vast ecosystem supports an incredible diversity of wildlife. Beyond the famous migration, the park is home to resident populations of elephants, giraffes, hippos, and countless antelope species. The predator-prey dynamics here are unmatched anywhere in Africa.
