The Serengeti boasts one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, hippos, and crocodiles. Every year, vast herds of herbivores migrate for about 800 kilometers in search of water and food.
The park is one of Africa’s most important protected areas and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site for over forty years. Its ecosystem supports more than 1.5 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, gazelles, and impalas, along with over 2,700 lions, 1,000 leopards, 500 cheetahs, and large groups of elephants, giraffes, and ostriches.

Ngorongoro Crater is often called one of the world’s wonders. As Professor Bernard Grzimek wrote, "There is nothing to compare it with; it is one of the most extraordinary wonders of the world."
Over 30,000 animals live here all year. This is one of the few places in Africa where you might see all of the "Big Five" together, as well as ostriches, hippos, hyenas, warthogs, flamingos, and zebras. Ngorongoro Crater is also one of the best places in the world to spot the endangered black rhino in the wild. The only animal you won’t find here is the giraffe.
After a full day of spotting wildlife, you’ll return to your lodge for a relaxing dinner and a restful night.

Lake Manyara National Park is famous for its tree-climbing lions, a rare and captivating sight, as well as large troops of baboons, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, and an astonishing variety of birdlife. Flocks of flamingos periodically blanket the lakeshore in soft pink hues, adding to the park’s enchanting atmosphere.
