The word "Serengeti" means "endless plains", which describes the park’s 5,600 square mile boundary. For its sprawling area, the Serengeti does not disappoint when it comes to rich game-viewing. Annually, from May to December, millions of animals embark on a migration which brings them from Central Serengeti to Kenya’s Masai Mara and back again in an incredible spectacle. Even during the "down-time", vast herds of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle roam here, along with groups of elephant, giraffe, and buffalo. As the lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas and jackals stalk their meals, we enjoy a picnic lunch in this open arena. We head to the lodge for dinner and our overnight stay.
