Activities
The Serengeti is one of the best places in the world to go on a safari and see lions, elephants, zebras and other wild animals in their natural habitat. You can also take a hot air balloon ride over the park for a breathtaking view of the landscape.
During the wildebeest migration, which usually takes place between June and September, thousands of wildebeest and zebras move through the park in search of fresh grass. It's an incredible sight to see and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The Serengeti is a nature lover's paradise, and there are plenty of activities to do and places to see. Take a scenic drive through the park and spot lions, elephants, giraffes, and other wildlife in their natural habitat. Go on a hot air balloon ride for a breathtaking view of the savanna and its inhabitants. And if you're feeling brave, take a walking tour with a Maasai guide to learn about the local flora and fauna.
While the Serengeti is famous for its annual wildebeest migration, there's so much more to see. You can visit the Olduvai Gorge, one of the most important archaeological sites in the world, where the earliest human ancestors were found. And take a trip to the Ngorongoro Crater, the world's largest inactive volcanic caldera, home to over 25,000 animals.
Dos and Don'ts:
Do bring your camera, but don't forget to respect the wildlife and keep a safe distance. Do visit the local Maasai villages and learn about their culture, but don't take photos without asking for permission. And most importantly, do have fun and make unforgettable memories.
