Serengeti National Park Safari Tour Reviews
- 3-Days Private Camping Safari Visiting Serengeti and Ngorongoro National parks
Amazing service, best value for money Me and my girlfriend booked 4 days of climbing Mt. Meru and 4 days of safari. It was amazing, and one of the reason for that was, that we had a great base in Meru Hotel inn, where the service was great, and James helped with all we needed. Before going to Tanzania, we did a lot of research about best prices and best recommendation and we found this company to stand out from the others. After our trip we know why, we are still amazed that we got so much out of out money. Thank you for a great trip!!!!
- 4-Days Wildebeest Great Migration Luxury Safari
Our guide was a very friendly and knowledgeable person. It was a great experience at Ngorongoro Crater. The car was a comfortable and we had water and snacks ready for us. We would love to have this experience again!!
- 5-Day Serengeti & Ngorongoro Comfortable Safari - Tanzania

What our customers ask about Best Serengeti Safaris
What is the best time to visit Serengeti National Park to witness the Great Migration?
The Great Migration follows distinct seasonal patterns in Serengeti National Park. Visit between July and September to see dramatic river crossings in the northern Serengeti. February to March brings the calving season in the southern plains. Properties like Lemala Kuria Hills Lodge provide front-row seats to the migration where over two million wildebeest and zebras cross the Mara River. A TourRadar traveler confirms: "We had the safari of a lifetime and got to see the mass migration in Serengeti including all the big 5 during our visit."
What wildlife can I expect to see during a Serengeti safari?
The Serengeti teems with Africa's most iconic wildlife. The park houses over 3,000 lions (Africa's largest population) and roughly 1,000 leopards with high visibility in the Seronera region. Visitors regularly encounter the "Big Five" along with cheetahs zebras and over 500 bird species. The Wagakuria area stands out for its resident wildlife particularly its lion prides that can number up to 30. A TourRadar traveler notes: "Every game drive felt like an expedition not knowing what we would encounter next."
How are game drives typically structured during a Serengeti safari?
Safari days in the Serengeti start early with morning drives between 6:00-8:00 AM when animals are most active. Afternoon drives begin after lunch around 13:00. Most itineraries include two daily game drives led by guides who know the best viewing spots in regions like Seronera and the northern plains. A TourRadar traveler shares: "Our guide David was exceptional always finding the best spots and routes. Be sure to do both morning and afternoon drives - we saw all the Big 5 amongst other animals."
What is the best way to get to Serengeti National Park?
Travelers can reach the Serengeti by air or road. Regular flights connect Arusha and Zanzibar to various park airstrips including Seronera and Kogatende. The two-hour flight from Arusha offers views of Mt. Kilimanjaro and Ngorongoro Crater. The road journey from Arusha takes 5-6 hours with stops at other attractions. A TourRadar traveler notes: "The scenic flight from Zanzibar to Serengeti offered breathtaking views and was an experience in itself."
What is included in the typical safari package price for Serengeti National Park?
Standard safari packages cover professional English-speaking guides 4x4 vehicles with pop-up roofs park fees full-board accommodation and three daily meals. High-end options like Baobab Serengeti Camp add private verandas and gourmet dining. Packages usually include transfers from Arusha or Kilimanjaro Airport. A TourRadar traveler shares: "Everything was well-organized - from the comfortable vehicles to excellent meals and knowledgeable guides making it great value for money."
How long should I plan to stay in Serengeti National Park for an optimal safari experience?
Plan for 3-4 days to properly explore the Serengeti's diverse regions from central Seronera to the northern plains. Popular options include the 4-day Serengeti Explorer combining Serengeti and Ngorongoro or the focused 3-day fly-in safari. A TourRadar traveler confirms: "Our 4-day safari was perfect - enough time to see all the major animals and different areas of the park."
