Amazing savana environment. You feel like being in the middle of nowhere. It is very important to have a good guide and find out the right place in the right moment. Unbelievable pictures, very special place.many animals

We were bitten by a tse-tse fly. This left an unpleasant impression of the safari.

Same as Ngorongoro Crater it is a must see, but way to crowded, do not visit it during August as it is peak season and you have safari vehicles all over the places!

The Big Outdoors, and truly is Big
A beautiful expanse of territory with varied wildlife and a simmering vibe. The Serengeti has everything. Mornings are special, burning sunrises with hot air balloons dotted in the sky give a romantic flavour to the setting. One has to remind oneself they are still in wild unforgiving surroundings. The sun beats relentless at midday, but still there is "entertainment" with the daily business and survival of the animals. One thing that adds to the entertainment is the rush to happenings/sightings in park. This can seem unfair to the animals to be so voyeuristic, but it is the reason where are all there - to see nature, to see the animals to experience the big outdoors.

Serengeti wildlife experience
It was quite a wildlife experience with lots of animals to see in their natural environment and also their natural instincts. Food and lodging quality was of a high standard. Transportation and guide was very good

Serengeti is awesome, but...
First of all, Serengeti is huge. Much bigger than I expected. We had to drive for a while to even get there, and when we got there, we drove more. And more. And more. Searching for wildlife. I thought the animal density would be bigger than it was, but was actually surprised in a positive way to find out it wasn't. Didn't want to think I was in a zoo either.
The first animal we spotted was actually the animal we didn't expect to see; a leopard. Sitting there, on his own, in the middle of the plain, surrounded by 20-30 safari vehicles. This is probably the thing that "ruins" the safari experience the most; all the people that surrounds the animals at all times, specially if you spot one of the great 5.
It was a once-in-a-lifetime-experience to get the chance

to sleep in a tent in the middle of the Serengeti. We could hear the animals make noises not very far away, and I just waited for a lion or a hyena to come over an knock on my tent door. Actually, in Ngorongoro, I had to get through a flock of zebras to get to the toilet. Not something you get to do everyday!What you have to do while you're in Serengeti is to take a hot air balloon ride. You start early in the morning, mayube 4 am, and get to see the sunrise from up in the air while the animals below you just look at you. It is a truly amazing experience!
All in all; safari is a great experience. I spotted every animal I wanted to see, except from the cheetah.
Maybe next time. I'm not done with Africa. Not at all.

The Safari was memorable but the park is expansive and one needs more than a few days there.
The wildlife was great with a spectacular number of wildebeast and zebra. There were many lions as well but they all seemed pretty content just lazing around. Didn't see many young, but we may be early in the season. The scenery was ok, but it's mainly just plains. The weather was almost perfect....not too hot, not too cold. The camps are varied in services and amenities so make sure you do your homework. They range from camps with no running water to the Four Seasons.

The perfect Journey
The days I spent in Serengeti National Park during my stay in Tanzania have been amazing. Immese strethces of flat land surrounded by nothing but the horizon and the most exciting animals making you company during your safaris are breathtaking emotions, not comparable to the everyday routine that we are used to all along our lives.
Moving through the park by the jeep, with a local prepared guide who drives you to the most precious locations makes it even better than it already is.
The weather I found in August was great, a fresh wind always accompanied us, even when the temperature under the sun got higher.
The accommodations are very limited, as there are quite a few lodges. But their quality is just superior; but food is not what makes the difference in this kind of journey.
