About Serengeti National Park

Discover the Wonders of Serengeti National Park with Lyimo Expeditions

Imagine a place where the horizon stretches endlessly, adorned with the golden hues of sprawling savannahs, where the whispers of the wild call you into a world untouched by time. Welcome to Serengeti National Park, Tanzania’s crown jewel and a UNESCO World Heritage site. This incredible landscape is home to one of the most spectacular wildlife shows on Earth: the Great Migration. At Lyimo Expeditions, we believe in creating unforgettable experiences, and we’re here to guide you through this enchanting wilderness.

The Majesty of the Serengeti

Covering an impressive 14,750 square kilometers, Serengeti National Park epitomizes the raw beauty of Africa. The name "Serengeti" is derived from the Maasai word "Siringet," meaning "the place where the land runs on forever." The park’s vast plains, dotted with acacia trees and punctuated by rocky outcrops, provide the perfect backdrop for the countless wildlife encounters you’ll have.

The Great Migration: Nature’s Greatest Spectacle

Every year, over 1.5 million wildebeests, accompanied by hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, embark on a treacherous journey in search of fresh grazing. This epic migration is a perilous trek that spans approximately 1,000 kilometers and involves dramatic river crossings where predators lurk, waiting for their chance to strike. Witnessing the Great Migration is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Lyimo Expeditions is here to ensure you have the best seat in the house.

Wildlife Encounters Beyond Your Wildest Dreams

The Serengeti is teeming with wildlife, offering a diverse range of species that will leave you in awe. You can expect to see the "Big Five" – lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and rhinos – as well as cheetahs, hippos, crocodiles, and a multitude of bird species. Each game drive promises new adventures and unforgettable moments, whether it’s spotting a pride of lions basking in the sun or watching a cheetah sprint across the plains in pursuit of its prey.

A Photographer’s Paradise

For photography enthusiasts, Serengeti National Park is a dream come true. The stunning landscapes, dramatic skies, and abundant wildlife provide endless opportunities to capture breathtaking images. From the golden light of sunrise over the plains to the striking silhouettes of giraffes against the African sunset, every moment is a chance to create memories that will last a lifetime. At Lyimo Expeditions, we understand the importance of these moments and offer specialized photography safaris to help you get that perfect shot.

Cultural Encounters: The Heartbeat of Tanzania

A visit to the Serengeti is not just about wildlife; it’s also about connecting with the people who call this incredible land home. The Maasai, with their rich traditions and vibrant culture, offer a unique glimpse into a way of life that has remained largely unchanged for centuries. Lyimo Expeditions provides opportunities to visit Maasai villages, where you can learn about their customs, participate in traditional dances, and gain a deeper understanding of their symbiotic relationship with the land and its wildlife.

Lyimo Expeditions offers a range of accommodation options to suit every preference, from luxurious lodges to intimate tented camps.
