Serengeti & Maasai Mara

Tanzania / Kenya

"The Greatest Wildlife Show on Earth - Witness the Grand Migration"

The Serengeti National Park (Tanzania) and Maasai Mara National Reserve (Kenya), separated only by the international border, together form one of the world's most extraordinary natural wonders - a vast, golden savanna ecosystem that has hosted the same dramatic wildlife spectacle for millions of years. The annual Great Migration sees 1.5 million wildebeest and 250,000 zebra following the rains in a circular route across the Serengeti, with the breathtaking Mara River crossings (July-October) offering the most dramatic wildlife scenes on earth. Year-round, the Serengeti offers unmatched Big Five game viewing - lions, leopards, elephants, buffalo, and rhinos - across spectacular open landscapes. Hot air balloon safaris at dawn over the Serengeti are an utterly transformative experience.
