Tanzania

Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti's vast plains and kopjes are home to Africa's largest migration of wildebeest and zebra, and to large populations of lions, leopards and cheetahs. It is the heart of any northern Tanzania safari.

Following the herds

The migration moves in a broad clockwise loop through the year, driven by rain and grass. Its timing varies each year, so we position your camps using current information when you book.
