With sun scorched plains stretching to kiss the slivery golden horizon, Serengeti National Park is no doubt Tanzania's oldest and most popular national park. A UNESCO World Heritage Site that is famed for its Great wildebeest Migration, zebras and gazelles.
With the great migration aside, Serengeti still has a lot to offer, such as large herds of elephants, giraffes, buffaloes and impalas can be spotted grazing in this area.
Predators like lions, leopards and cheetahs are a common sighting in the grasslands, often hide in lush acacia trees or rest on the kopjes that intersperse the rolling grasslands.

Hot Air balloon safari - one of the most exciting ways to see wildlife in the Serengeti National Park.
