Destination guide

Travel can open your mind.

Step onto the plains that wrote the story of the African safari β€” and let the Serengeti change how you see the wild.

Serengeti National Park

Mara & Simiyu, Tanzania

The Serengeti is the beating heart of Tanzania's northern circuit β€” nearly 15,000 square kilometres of golden, grassy plains stretching further than the eye can travel. It is the stage for the Great Migration, when more than a million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebra move in a restless circle across the ecosystem in search of fresh grazing.

Beyond the migration, the Serengeti is home to extraordinary resident wildlife: prides of lions draped over kopjes, leopards in the riverine forests, cheetahs scanning the short-grass plains, and elephants moving in slow, deliberate herds. Whether you come for the river crossings of the north, the calving season of the south, or the predator action of the central Seronera, every visit rewards you with something unforgettable.
