One of the singularly incredible experiences on the planet
The landscape alone gives you chills, acacia dotting broad plains, with colours and imagery that might be familiar from a nature documentary, but feels deeper, maybe stretching back to man's history in this place.
And then you see the animals. First a giraffe moving in the distance. Then families of elephants, herds of wildebeest and zebras, warthogs, birds. Prides of lions, solitary leopards, mothers and babies. It's all here, and in numbers that make your jaw drop. And what makes it that much more incredible is watching the animals interacting, mostly ignoring your presence and go about their activities in ways that can't be experienced or understood in a zoo. The vastness of this place can give you goosebumps the entire time.
Come ready for heat, for flies, and for bumpy game drives. This is the wild, and it truly is wild, and it's absolutely worth it.

Fantastic, amazing wildlife everywhere. Really wild. Lots of jeeps at times but can strike out alone and we saw lion cubs playing and herds of wildebeest without any other cars around. Loved the camping in the bush.

Safari doesn't get any better than this. Luxury tent accommodations, Massai warrior escorts, leopards in trees, lions everywhere, cheetahs, hyenas, antelope, elephants, giraffe, wildebeest and zebra migration, Cape buffalo grazing all night next to our tent. Totally awesome!

Can't imagine there is a better park than the Serengeti
Last August I did my first Safari and visited the Serengeti with my wife and my 2 children (12 and 10)
We were in one word: overwhelmed! Never saw such a number of wildlife (number of animals as well as diversity). It was if I was live in a National Geographic documentary. Our guide Jamal showed us many different kind of animals and explained their behaviour. Our children really loved it. So I can recommend everybody who loves to see animals in their natural habitat to visit these breathtaking Endless Plains.

Fantastic park!
The animals were abundant! We were there during the migration and saw thousands of wildebeest and zebra. Our guide was phenomenal at spotting animals. I don't think there's one species that we didn't see. The park wasn't too crowded. Sometimes there could be 10-15 vehicles in one spot, but most of the time we felt like we were alone out there. We saw elephants charge lions. We saw lions eating a zebra. We saw hyenas eating something dead. It was a wonderful experience! We took a hot air balloon ride which was nice, but we honestly saw more wildlife on the ground. We didn't even need binoculars. I would definitely recommend this park!

I saw many many more animals than I ever thought I would.
I went in November, which borders on the rainy season. It was overcast much of the time, which was good. It kept us cool, and it did get hot when the sun came out. There are so many animals. In the middle of the night, I would hear constant noises from animals, near and far, all directions. The only protection was our tent, which is a little scary, but exciting at the same time. There was a giraffe grazing among the trees about a 50 years from our tent on afternoon. We almost witnessed a kill by a cheetah, but the she stopped upon hearing its young cry from its mother. We did see a carcass of a gazelle in the trees with two leopards. The next morning, they were nowhere in sight. The number of animals I saw was surreal. It was an amazing experience that I recommend to everyone.

A lifetime experince
The Serengeti's Southern plains are where the name of the park comes from. Huge endless grass plains stretch from Southern Seronera into the Ngorongoro Conservation area. The area is not as good for game out of the migration season as the central Seronera region, or the Western Corridor, but from December through to April the migration covers the entire area. February is a superb time of year to be here for the calving season when 8,000 wildebeest are born every day for a two week period! The only two permanent lodges here are Ndutu Lodge and Kusini Camp,

however, all the mobile camps move down to the area for the whole period. Alex Walker’s Serian is perfect choice for this area, being close enough to the migration and far away from the other mobile camps. For a more migration intense location, Olakira, Nomads Serengeti Safari Camp and Serengeti Under Canvas work very well

Serengeti is amazing
Serengeti was all I had expected and then some. The animals, including the Great Migration, and the birds were beautiful, accommodations were unique and comfortable, and even at the more heavily-populated visitor centers at the entrances there was no trash or papers/plastic around.

Best park in Tanzania
This park is, hands down, our favorite place in Tanzania. No matter what time of year you visit, you will always see lions, cheetahs, oodles of wildebeest, giraffe and many other animals. Depending on the length of your stay, you should also be able to see a leopard or two.
Highly recommend it!
