There’s much more to the Serengeti than the famous Great Migration, but it is quite a spectacle to behold if you’re in the park between November and July. The Serengeti is vast and filled with a variety of antelope, zebra, giraffe, warthog, hippo and big cats including leopard and cheetah.
The park’s largely open landscapes make it easy to spot animals – and it’s a beautiful place for photographers to create a unique composition. Accommodations are plentiful and varied throughout, from luxury tented camps to well-established lodges. Long days spent in the safari vehicle are well worth it – there’s always something special to see in the Serengeti.
- Epic migration of wildebeest and plains game.
- Large numbers of mammals and birds year round.
- Big cats galore.
- Incredible sunsets and stargazing.
- Luxury camps and safari lodges.
- Easy access to other safari locations.
