Game Viewing Serengeti National Park & Overnight
The Serengeti is the home of endless plains and the great migration. Stretching across 1.5 million hectares of land, the Serengeti National Park is known for its impressive wildlife population, most notably the Big 5. It is perhaps more renowned for being part of the stage on which the annual great migration plays out. Each year, over 2 million wildebeest, a fair number of gazelles, and a small following of zebra, seek better grazing areas by migrating south in the Serengeti, going west and north into the Masai Mara before eventually returning.
Highlights:
- The great migration puts on part of its great show
- It is 1.5 million hectares
- Offers some of the best game viewing in the country
- Home to the Big 5 and a big lion population.
