Serengeti

Seronera’s permanent river pools draw Serengeti wildlife year-round, with lions on granite outcrops and leopards in riverside trees.

Follow the Seronera River with your guide for predators and open plains, watching for lions on the granite kopjes. Migrating herds pass through at different times as they follow rain and grass. Stay in your vehicle unless your guide permits otherwise, keep to tracks and respect gate times. Carry your passport, arrange park fees and any Ngorongoro transit permit, and seek malaria advice before travel.
