NORTHERN CIRCUIT: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

Welcome to Serengeti National Park, an iconic jewel in Tanzania’s wildlife crown. The Serengeti comes from the Maa word ‘Serengit’, which translates to ‘the place where the land moves on forever’. It is the far-reaching, endless savannahs that inspired the Lion King, and is now the most popular safari destination in the world.

Renowned worldwide for its vast, sweeping landscapes and extraordinary biodiversity, Serengeti stands as a testament to the untamed beauty of Africa. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is synonymous with the awe-inspiring Great Migration, a natural spectacle where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the endless plains in search of greener pastures. Beyond the migration, the park offers a year-round safari paradise, boasting a rich tapestry of diverse ecosystems, teeming with lions, elephants, giraffes, and an array of other wildlife.

Serengeti National Park is not just a destination; it’s a living, breathing testament to the raw essence of the African wilderness, inviting visitors to witness nature’s grandeur in its purest form.

best time to visit Serengeti?

The best time to visit the Serengeti National Park is in the Dry season (from late June to October). This period offers the best wildlife viewing in general – with the wildebeest migration as its absolute highlight. Wildlife viewing is good throughout the year, but certain areas are better at specific times. The timing of the migration varies every year (the best chance of seeing it is during June and July) while the wildebeest calving is from late January to February.

Wildlife in the Serengeti

The rich grasslands of the Serengeti allow it to support the millions of wildebeest that live here, before the dry season forces them north towards the Mara in southern Kenya. Woodlands and acacia trees dot the landscape, as do ‘koppies’, large granite outcrops rising up from the plains.

As well as the famous wildebeest migration, the park is home to the Big Five: rhino, lions, leopards buffalo, and elephant.

The Serengeti is home to some of the world’s fiercest predators: cheetah, spotted hyena (usually in the morning), jackal, bat-eared-fox, and wild dog. The park has the highest concentration of predators in Africa. Alongside these you’ll find giraffes, mongoose, baboons, aardvarks, colobus monkeys, monitor lizards, and giant Nile crocodiles.

The park also has the highest ostrich population in Africa, and more than 350 species of birds. There are at least four endangered animal species; the black rhino, elephant, wild dog, and cheetah.

During the dry season, when the short grasses and reduced watering holes make wildlife sightings much easier, it’s not uncommon to return from a safari in a state of silent disbelief. The abundance of wildlife, the beauty of the park, the sheer scale of it all.

Life is a safari, let’s conquer it together.

Embark on the adventure of a lifetime with Mighty Africa Xpeditions! Our wildlife safari tours blend exhilarating game drives with cultural experiences, offering a journey beyond imagination. Let every sunrise bring new wonders as you explore the heart of Africa with us.

Fun Kilimanjaro Trekking & Safari We had an incredible experience on Kilimanjaro with guides Masai, Bonni and Musa of Mighty Africa Xpeditions.We joined a group of 4 other climbers and it was well planned and well taken care of from start to finish. Pick up at the airport was timely, the hotel in Moshi clean and comfortable.The Trek took us 6 days on the mountain to reach the summit and then we went on a 3 day safari to Ngorongoro, Tarangire and Manyara.I have to commend Walter for planning the whole adventure for it was flawless and also reasonably priced.

Fantastic! We had a great time on the day trip to Materuni waterfalls and local villages where they grow coffee. The hike to the waterfalls through the forest and bushy trail was nice, relaxing as Walter took the time to share so much information about Tanzania, culture and so many things. His charm made time pass exta fast. We found about 14 other visitors at the waterfall and it was really nice. Later we went to a village where we visited a coffee farmer, which was in bloom, afterwards we went through the coffee drying and roasting process and managed to buy very good coffee.Was a day well spent!

Top Notch Operator & A Wonderful Experience My family of six had a wonderful time on our Tanzania safari. We are grateful to the people at Mighty Africa Xpeditions and particularly the Director Walter who was exceptional as we created an itinerary that suited our needs and budget. The actual tour was seamlessly organized, with the game drives through Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro with guide Mushi. The accommodations organized were top notch as they were not only comfortable, but there was great food, a relaxing atmosphere, and really nice places. We are so happy with the overall work done in getting us a great 4x4 off-roader, securing all the permits and tickets to the parks correctly, timely transfers, and attention to the smallest details regarding our trip. I highly recommend this local tour operator.

Great trip I had a perfect solo trek. I joined a group with 3 other climbers and the experience was awesome. The trek turned out to be tougher than I expected and without the support of our crew I would not have made it to the summit. Jabali the lead guide was assisted by Mark and Philip and they were outstanding. You could tell that they have done this assignment numerous times as they knew what to do at every juncture. All the meals on the mountain were prepared by cook Steve and he did a splendid job despite the difficult mountain conditions. I go to learn a lot about Kilimanjaro from Mark who was always close to me. He also ensured that I was comfortable with the pace and closely monitored my health with checks in the morning and evening.Despite the difficult terrain I thoroughly enjoyed the trek because of the fresh mountain air, great views and great company of the crew and fellow climbers. I rate this trip so highly for the efforts that Walter and his team have put down to have high standards of equipment, food and hygiene. It was impressive and I highly recommend Mighty Africa Xpeditions for Kilimanjaro Trekking and Photographic Safaris.

Unforgettable African holiday Of all the holidays we have taken as a couple, our recent trip to Tanzania is the most remarkable. The trip took us to Manyara, Ngorongoro and Serengeti, all fantastic places to find different wildlife species in abundance and in their natural habitat.Our guide Jack was incredible. He drove well and also knew the routes that led to places where we discovered wildlife. His patience and attention to us throughout the journey were remarkable.We booked a mix of lodges and camps, all of which were excellent accommodations.

Incredible experience Our trip on Kilimanjaro with Mighty Africa Xpeditions was wonderful. We both owe a lot of gratitude to Juma and Calisto our guides. They gave us such an incredible experience, putting themselves out there in the cold snow and rough terrain to get us there. The journey was both challenging and rewarding, the body tired from the constant hiking over rough terrain and low oxygen levels. It was difficult for us to continue the trek despite eating well and if it wasn't for the amazing support from the crew, we wouldn't have reached the top.A big thank you to everyone involved in organizing and executing our trip.

Awesome Experience This was our second time in Tanzania and we had an incredible experience during the safari. Walter had done a superb organizing this trip with his thorough attention to detail that he included everything that we wanted on the schedule, and booked all the accommodations, communicated our dietary restrictions, transport in a great Landcruiser and above all, he assigned guide Bravin to us. Bravin gave us an amazing safari, he knew all the routes in the parks well and found wildlife with ease. He freely shared information about the flora and fauna we encountered on the safari as well as keeping us safe and comfortable during the entire trip.The overall experience was awesome!!

Very Professional Team and Excellent Arrangements We are truly grateful for the excellently organized trek on the Lemosho route. We have absolutely no regrets for having chosen to go with this amazing team. I must confess that I was a bit scared of sending all that money to a company that I had not deal with before, however they proved to be trustworthy and delivered an amazing trip.The organization was top class, smooth and we had Walter as our trip designer. The actual trek was great, they had prepared and made all the necessary arrangements. We went with a very experienced and dedicated crew who took excellent care of us.The views and overall trekking experience is unlike any other. Refreshing but very challenging. We both made it to the summit and I have nothing but praise.I highly recommend Mighty Africa Xpeditions!
