Its huge. Therefore you can pick and choose the type of safari experience to your liking. It could be a little crowded when a big game like a leopard or a cheetah is spotted. But there is plenty more - great for birding if that is your interest.

A vast wilderness where at some points you can see the curvature of the earth—grass plains that extend to the horizon.
Serengeti National Park is one of the gems of the world, a vast wilderness populated by all the animals that you expect to see in East Africa. My party and I were there in Mid-January. We got to see the incredible migration of wildebeest and zebra coming down from the North to the great plains of the Serengeti. The came to the water in the Hidden Valley area, thousands of thousands of animals; quite a spectacle to see. If you love wildlife and nature, the Serengeti is a must destination. We also saw many leopards in the Serengeti’s tree lined river valleys. It is also a great birding destination as well.
We stayed in the Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge, which is centrally located in the vast Serengeti ecosystem. I had a beautiful view of the southern Serengeti from my room. The people at the lodges are very friendly, and our Wildersun guides were excellent—extremely knowledgeable not only about the wildlife, but also knowing where to position the vehicle for the best photography. For, I am a nature photographer, and I came to see and photograph the birds and wildlife. I loved every moment of my stay, for I love the earth and its wildlife. Every moment is unique and special in nature, and that’s especially true for Serengeti National Park.
With my photography, I try to capture the sacredness and individual spirituality of each species. You can see some of my African photographic work from this trip on Flickr at https://www.flickr.com/photos/brucefinocchio/
I really did well with lions, and I have a blog post you might enjoy reading on the Ndutu lions at https://brucefinocchio.wordpress.com/
The Serengeti one of the jewels of natural world, and a must destination for anyone who loves wildlife and nature.

Amazing Wildlife

Weather was a bit cold on the morning bur the wildlife in the Park was absolutely amazing. Our Guide was a really kind guy that made our visit unforgivable. Accomodations were Serengeti Ikoma Safari Camp and Bougainvillea Safari Lodge. Both of them were a clean nice places where resting after a lot of km in car.

Really recommended visit in Tanzania

Just amazing! The wildlife is amazing and the scenery even more. The scenery ranges from being in the middle of a savannah seeing noting but the gras meeting the sky at the horizon to a hippo filled oasis!

Best of the best. It´s a must. No other place on earth has more wildlife than Serengeti. Been there a lot of times and if there is one place I want to get back to before I die it´s Serengeti. But leave the place from May - November when the migration is too far north and weather can be really wet.

Top destination, abandon wildlife and the great migration is the top of all. The massive numbers of animals that comes with this migration is one of a kind. The landscapes and tented camps give all the Out of Africa feelings you can have.

Wild and Beautiful

The Serengeti is one of the most famous National Parks in the world. The savanna is beautiful and truly special and is the home to a rich wildlife population. You can spend days and days travelling inside the park and you will always see something different and unique. The wildlife is healthy and offers excellent opportunity for videographers and photographers to capture great images.

When I think back to our safari through the Serengeti National Park it still amazes me how it made such an incredible impact on my life.
I never expected to see so much of wildlife, I had hoped for some elephants and lions as a highlight of our trip but to have an elephant right next to my open car window, looking into my eyes or to sit and watch 14 lion cubs playing with their mothers or to listen to the thunder of hundreds (thousands?) of wildebeest racing through a ravine, it just blew my mind and at the same time made me think about the future of these parks that have been saved so far from thoughtless destruction.
I hope that we can really do enough as humans to make sure that this beautiful nature will always be protected and be there for us and our children.
This desire was born in the parks of Tanzania and that is why I hope that more people will go to experience similar moments of awe and gratitude.
I also loved the African trees and the typical red soil in some places.The lodges were another surprise. I am still asking myself, how they can function so well in the middle of nowhere!
At the end I realized that our experience had been very well organized and prepared by the tour guides and their company. The trucks were comfortable and very safe and there was not a moment in our 12 days in Tanzania, that I did not enjoy. I will go back again, there is no doubt in my mind.

We have visited this park among several others during a honeymoon trip back in 1999. This was our first safari but we have been enjoying this so much that we still remember this as the best trip of our life and keep dreaming of getting back there.
