Serengeti National Park

The endless plains that gave the safari its name, and stage for the Great Migration.

About Serengeti National Park

The endless plains

Northern Tanzania, on the Kenyan border

'Serengeti' comes from the language of the Maasai people and means 'endless plains', and this vast ecosystem hosts the greatest wildlife spectacle on earth — the annual migration of over two million wildebeest, zebra and gazelle.

Beyond the migration, the Serengeti holds extraordinary concentrations of lion, cheetah and leopard across its plains, kopjes and riverine woodland — wildlife flourishing on a scale found nowhere else.
