As Tanzania’s largest and most iconic national park, the Serengeti National Park is one of the best places in Africa for wildlife viewing. It’s one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa, and a bucket list destination for many travellers and safari enthusiasts.
Located in northern Tanzania, the Serengeti is one of the most complex ecosystems on the planet, stretching to the Masai Mara in Kenya to form the mighty Mara-Serengeti ecosystem. The climate, plants and animals of this region have barely changed over the past one million years, making it also one of the oldest and least disturbed ecosystems on earth.
The Serengeti National Park is also host to the world’s greatest wildlife spectacle - the Great Migration. Every year, beginning around July, over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebra and antelope move in a thundering mass from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara, in search of greener pastures.
