Serengeti Migration Area

The Serengeti is one of Africa’s most captivating safari areas.

Watch out for Leopards lazily laying on trees...

...or spot some giraffes on the wide, open plains.

...constantly moving in a huge loop, following the rains to find the replenished grasses.

Serengeti Migration Area: Safaris

Tanzania safari holidays to the Serengeti migration area

The Serengeti is without any doubt one of Africa’s most captivating safari destinations. The sheer amount of game on its vast grassy plains is amazing and the great migration of millions of wildebeest, zebra, different gazelle and antelope species, accompanied by predators on the lookout for prey, is one of the world’s most famous wildlife spectacles. Therefore it’s not surprising that many of our safari holidays in Tanzania visit this area. The itineraries below include luxurious top-notch lodges as well as good-value camps, and range from four-night stays to complete two-week safari holidays to the Serengeti migration area. Many of them are privately guided and come with a private safari vehicle for ultimate flexibility.
