Serengeti

The Serengeti, located in northern Tanzania and extending into southwestern Kenya, is one of the world’s most iconic ecosystems, renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife. Spanning vast savannas, acacia woodlands, and riverine forests, this UNESCO World Heritage Site hosts the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles traverse its plains in search of fresh grazing. The Serengeti is home to the “Big Five”—lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffalo—alongside a myriad of other species, making it a premier safari destination. Its name, derived from the Maasai word “Siringet,” means “endless plains,” reflecting its boundless horizons and untamed beauty.
