Serengeti is the only remaining natural grazing ecosystem to be found in the world. The vast open plains in the heart of the complex stretch away as far as the eye can see and throb with life in an endless annual rhythm that is maintained by the most spectacular events, whereby over 12.2 million migrating herds of wildebeests accompanied by zebras, other antelopes heading southwest, north or west in search of water and greener pastures in and around the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem.

During the Great Wildebeest Migration, the best-known population of great predators, lions and hyenas, are on the frontline. The giant Nile crocodiles await their turn as the significant migration enters their areas.

A World Heritage Site and undoubtedly one of the best-known wildlife sanctuaries globally, famed for its annual wildebeest migration. Aptly referred to as “endless plains” by the Maasai, Serengeti provides a haven to the world’s highest concentration of plains animals.

Within its area of 14,763 sq km, more than 4 million large mammals live in total wilderness freedom. In addition, about 35 species of plains animals are to be seen, and over 400 birds are found in the Serengeti.

The main game drive areas in the Serengeti are the Seronera Valley, the Western Corridor, Lobo or northern Serengeti, and the southeastern Serengeti plains extending to Ndutu in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
