The Serengeti is the largest park in Tanzania and has a diversity of habitats and landscapes including short grass plains, savannah, thick bush, swamps, mountains, and lakes. Bizarre rock formations called Kopjes dot the grassy landscape where predators are often seen. Depending on the season you will witness the migration of thousands of animals which this park is famous for. During the short rainy season in November and December, the herds move from the hills in the north to the plains in the south. During the longer rainy season from April to June, they return up north.

Additional notes:
We ask that you please pay special attention to the national parks visitor rules and our company recommendations:
-
During the safari, it is strictly prohibited to exit the vehicle, except for in specially designated areas. Violations of this rule may be accompanied by large fines for the company, including the revocation of its license.
-
Off-road driving is also prohibited, as such behavior may cause irreparable damage to the fragile balance of the natural ecosystem.
-
During the safari, you are allowed to smoke, but be extremely careful about how you extinguish and dispose of cigarette butts, as they are a frequent cause of fires in the savanna.
In addition, we sincerely request that you not put your feet on the safari car's seats, nor sit on the back of them because this type of behavior quickly makes the cars unusable.
Thank you in advance for your understanding
