Serengeti National Park

Home Destination Serengeti National Park

Overview – Welcome to the Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti is the Africa people dream about: endless golden plains, acacia trees scattered across the horizon, large lion prides resting under the shade, and herds of wildebeest stretching as far as the eye can see.
It’s a place that stirs emotion the moment you enter. The silence, the space, the wildlife moving freely across the land—it all feels timeless. This is why the Serengeti is considered one of the greatest wildlife destinations on Earth and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
When you explore with Everyday Safaris, you see the Serengeti through the eyes of guides who have spent years studying its seasons, migration patterns, and hidden corners. They know when to position you for the best sightings, when to avoid the crowds, and where the most rewarding photography moments unfold.
