Serengeti National Park involves an enormous expanse of untouched wilderness that is home to not only the Big Five – lions, Cape buffalos, leopards, rhinos and elephants – but also crocodiles, hyenas, hippos, cheetahs, wildebeests, warthogs, zebras, gazelles and much more. In fact as the leading safari destination in Africa the Serengeti is home to over 3500 lions, 280 Cheetahs, 1.5 to 2 million Wildebeests and over 800 thousand Zebras with more than 2 million other antelope all this make it be the only wild area with such high no of wildlife.

SEASONS.

The Serengeti is governed by two distinct seasons: wet and dry. The dry season, which occurs June through to October, is generally viewed as the most ideal for wildlife spotting. This has nothing to do with the volume of animals, but instead the simplicity of seeing them. Short grass cause animals more easily visible, whilst drying streams and shrinking waterholes cause many animals to flock to an increasingly smaller area. 

However, this by no means insinuates that other months offer worthless safaris. Not at all. The Serengeti offers absolutely phenomenal wildlife spotting all-year round. And, in fact, visiting out of season has its advantages too.
