I'm not capable of putting into words how amazing the Serengeti was. Camping under the stars (even for me, who never slept in a tent in his life - it was amazing) combined with being a visitor to nature's home and observing the animals - just amazing.

We stayed in Central Serengeti in June while the migration was also taking place in this area. Very impressive. We stayed there for 10 days and therefore also had days when the migration had already passed through the area. Those days it was not easy to spot the wild animals. Overall I expected to see more cheetahs, elephants and leopards. There is no shortage of lions, but here too we were always there with easily 70 other cars, all moving continuously to see the lions just a little better and tourists shouting at the animals. Not the relaxing and romantic safari that I am used to from private parks in, for example, Namibia or even the national parks in Zambia. The roads are dramatic even though you pay a large fee to enter the park and the rest camps are places where you really don't stop for fun.
I have the feeling that they can also make the roads much more 'romantic'. Sometimes you have a beautiful river, but you don't see anything because the road goes in
Read more the completely opposite direction. The Masai Mara does this much better.
Overall I also thought the guides were very poor. They pushed the animals too much and often locked them in.
Overall, I would rather spend my money on a safari in Zambia, Namibia or Kenya, for example.

The Serengeti was my long time dream, and it came true! We stayed for three nights, and it was more than i expected to see and experience. We were in the Lion King movie!!

I love birds and we saw so many different ones. We also saw the big five pretty much every day. Our guide was very familiar with the roads and the park and made our experience unforgettable.

Very special how much space there is! I really felt like entering the animal kingdom. landscape can be a bit boring, but you can look very far. Amazing to see the big groups of zebra's and wildebeasts.

Beautiful scenic view, especially the sunset, the wildlife and the history of the place.

Simply the best. We saw so many lions within 2-4 meters of our vehicle as well as elephants , but the lions were the most awesome. Unlike other visitors, we unfortunately did not see any lions chasing prey. The number of herds of gnu and zebra was also astounding

This is a wonderful park. Lots of roads the carve up the landscape but give animals room to breathe. We saw everything, except rhinos. We came during the offseason and saw plenty of animals and few other tourists. When stopped to see something there were never more than 1 or 2 other jeeps around us.
