Serengeti National Park – Rated As Africa’s Best Safari Park

First and foremost is Serengeti National Park, one of the most popular protected areas in all of Africa. Encompassing 14,763km²/5,700mi² and making up 50% of the wider Serengeti-Mara ecosystem, this is an iconic wildlife area. Sensational scenery dominated by expansive savannah grasslands and peppered with distinctive flattop acacias and Balanites trees make this one of the most picturesque landscapes in Africa. Throw in more than 1.5 million wildebeest, 200,000 zebra and 300,000 gazelles during the great migration and you have a wildlife spectacle second to none. The Serengeti and its surrounding protected area offer a wide variety of safari accommodations and experiences to suit most budgets.
