Serengeti National Park
Home of the Great Migration
The Serengeti is Tanzania's most famous national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Spanning 14,750 square kilometers, it hosts the greatest wildlife spectacle on earth - the Great Migration of over 2 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles.
About Serengeti National Park
The Serengeti ecosystem is one of the oldest on earth. The essential features of climate, vegetation and fauna have barely changed in the past million years. It is home to the largest terrestrial mammal migration in the world, which helps secure it as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa.
The Serengeti hosts the largest lion population in Africa and is one of the best places on the continent to observe prides in their natural environment. Cheetahs, leopards, elephants, giraffes, and over 500 bird species also call this vast wilderness home.
Whether you're watching a river crossing during the Great Migration, witnessing a predator-prey interaction on the endless plains, or enjoying a hot air balloon safari at dawn, the Serengeti delivers unforgettable safari experiences.
