Welcome to Serengeti
Serengeti National Park, an 'endless plains', is undoubtedly one of the world's most celebrated wilderness areas and is an ongoing source of inspiration to writers, filmmakers and photographers.
It is Tanzania's oldest national park, and renowned as the site of the annual Great Migration, when over two million animals - mostly wildebeests - migrate to Kenya's Maasai Mara National Reserve. This epic, seasonal journey is a deeply moving experience and a wonderful photographic subject.
Visitors to the park can roam its sprawling plains on exhilarating game drives, safari walks or hop into a hot-air balloon for a once-in-a-lifetime wilderness adventure.
