Best Tanzania Safari Destinations | Tanzania’s top safari parks and game reserves

Home to one of the world’s greatest concentrations of wildlife and the majority of the Great Wildebeest Migration, Serengeti National Park is Tanzania’s flagship conservation area and a must-do for first-time and returning safari goers alike.

Translated from the Maa language as ‘the land that moves on forever, the Serengeti’s vast rolling grasslands and golden savannah give travelers a soul-stirring sense of space. Although it is most famous for supporting millions of wildebeest, there are also sizable populations of zebra, buffalo, elephant, giraffe, and myriad gazelle and antelope species. And where there is plains game aplenty, predators like lion, leopard, cheetah, hyena, and wild dog are sure to follow.
