The Serengeti National Park is Tanzania’s best-known safari destination and the heart of the wildebeest migration for much of the year, as over a million animals move in a continuous cycle between the Serengeti and Kenya’s Maasai Mara in search of grazing. Its endless open plains give the park its name, from the Maasai word ‘siringet’, meaning the place where the land runs on forever.
The Serengeti offers exceptional predator sightings year-round, including large lion prides and healthy cheetah and leopard populations, alongside the sheer scale of its plains game. Eastern Voyage Safaris arranges Serengeti safaris from Arusha or Kilimanjaro Airport, usually combined with the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara or Tarangire for a complete northern Tanzania circuit.
