Serengeti National Park
Serengeti National Park
Welcome to Serengeti National Park, one of the most legendary wildlife sanctuaries in the world and a crown jewel of African safaris. Located in northern Tanzania, the Serengeti covers over 14,750 square kilometers of vast savannah, dotted with acacia trees, rocky outcrops (kopjes), and seasonal rivers that create the perfect setting for Africa’s most iconic wildlife.
This UNESCO World Heritage Site is best known for the Great Migration — an epic annual movement of over 1.5 million wildebeest, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and gazelles crossing the plains in search of fresh grazing. It is a breathtaking natural phenomenon, and along the way, predators like lions, leopards, hyenas, and crocodiles lie in wait, making.
The park is divided into different regions — each with its own unique beauty and wildlife density, from the endless plains of the Central Serengeti, to the predator-rich Seronera Valley, and the remote, wild corners of the Northern and Southern Serengeti.

You won’t find any more beautiful corner of the Rift Valley than Arusha National Park. Yes, you’ll see wildlife – giraffe, zebra and buffalo are present and the birdlife is wonderfully varied.

Napuru Waterfalls
Napuru Waterfalls
Napuru Waterfalls (also spelled Navuru) is a breathtaking hidden gem nestled on the southern slopes of Mount Meru, just a 20-minute drive from Arusha. Here's a concise description of what makes it special:
Tucked amid lush montane forest at around 1,500–2,000 m elevation, Napuru is a vertical cascade plunging approximately 78 m into a serene natural pool.
The hike is moderately challenging—about 4 km round-trip with steep descents and rocky river crossings—taking roughly 1.5–2 hours.
The trail winds past rural farms (banana, maize, coffee), through pine or casuarina plantations, and into thick forest alive with bird calls, butterflies, and playful monkeys.
Upon arrival, you're welcomed by the cool mist and mesmerizing roar of the falls. It’s ideal for photography, a refreshing swim, or simply soaking in the peaceful ambiance far from city life.
