Northern safari circuit

Overview

The Serengeti covers almost 15,000 square kilometres of grassland, river forest and granite kopjes. It is home to more than a million wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of zebra that move through the park in a yearly circle, followed by lions, cheetahs and hyenas.

The central Seronera area has excellent game all year. In the green season the herds calve on the southern plains; from July to October they cross the Mara River in the far north.

Highlights

  • Great Migration and river crossings (Jul–Oct)
