Wildebeest Crossing was really amazing, that's is what my guide and tour operator promised me to witness in Serengeti and i have seen it. endless plain with a lot of animals, luxury lodges.

Saw good numbers of lion, cheetah and leopard. I really loved the river crossings we were fortunate to witness in the Kogatende area, even enjoyed the non crossings, just a cool wildlife behavior to take in.

This is THE park, the place to go to see the real life scenes that you've always imagined. Lions, elephants, cape buffalo, giraffes, zebras, antelope, all just yards away. You fill your days searching for leopards in trees, cheetahs in the tall grass, wildebeest on the move, hippos in their pools . The anticipation as you drive of what's around the next turn pulls you through the 10 hour day, which always seemed to end to soon. This is the park your dreams live in.

We did not see all the big-5 but are happy with what we saw. Very scenic and the whole place with its unpaved roads has been kept as pristine as possible. Tanzania has done a superb job in maintaining these national treasures.

Amazing Place to visit in Dry season, we managed to see wildebeest migration in Northern Serengeti it was wonderful time to see hundreds to wildebeest risking their life to cross the river while Crocodiles are on the base waiting any one will stack at the middle. We saw all big five animals except Rhino who will see in Ngorongoro Crater during our Safari

It was amazing for sure, you never regret to do a tour in Serengeti.

Great safari, but very commercial

We spent 4 days in the central part of Serengeti, and were rewarded with a number of great elephant and lion sightings. We also saw cheetahs a couple of times, but I would never say that seeing them is 'common'. Leopard is much harder, we did see twice, but no quality sightings.
The park is overrun by cars and tourists, so the bush vibe is gone as soon as a cat shows up - once we counted 40+ cars at a leopard sighting. Picnic sites and toliets are not well maintained especially compared to parks in South Africa e.g. Kruger NP. Roads are in horrible condition, on the day we left the park we saw 4 cars with various issues (broken axle, tire puncture, etc.). They are so bumpy that it is guaranteed that your lower back will hurt at the end of the trip.
It also costs a fortune to visit the park, and we felt paying 800 USD per day was too steep for it compared to South Africa, where you can have a nice time for about 250 USD per day in the Kruger.
All in all, it is fabulous how easily you can see lions every day around Seronera, but leopard is rare, and the tourists hordes are quite annoying sometimes. And it was so dusty!
