Serengeti National Park Tour
The Serengeti National Park, Tanzania’s second-largest, is renowned for its vast landscapes, incredible wildlife, and the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeests and zebras travel between the Serengeti and Maasai Mara. Onyesha Expeditions offers tailored itineraries based on the migration’s location. The park is divided into four regions:
Serengeti North: Known for river crossings during migration.
Serengeti South: Famous for wildebeest calving season.
Serengeti Central: The heart of the park with abundant wildlife, including the Big Five.
Serengeti West: A peaceful area with lush greenery and fewer crowds.
In addition to the migration, Serengeti offers game drives, hot air balloon safaris, Masai rock paintings, and musical rocks. It borders Lake Victoria, Maswa Game Reserve, and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, enhancing the safari experience with diverse wildlife and stunning scenery.
Best Time to Visit Serengeti National Park
The best time to visit Serengeti National Park depends largely on what you wish to experience:
Dry Season (June to October): This is considered the peak season for game viewing. The dry weather forces animals to gather around water sources, and the thin vegetation makes wildlife easier to spot. It’s also the main time for the Great Migration when thousands of wildebeests and zebras cross the Serengeti and the Mara River.
Calving Season (January to March): This is the best time to witness the dramatic wildebeest calving in the southern Serengeti, especially around the Ndutu Area. You can observe predators such as lions and cheetahs hunting calves in this dramatic season. This time of year also offers fewer tourists, providing a more tranquil experience.
Wet Season (November to May): Although the wet season brings lush landscapes and fewer visitors, it’s not the prime time for migration. However, birdwatching is excellent, and the landscape is at its most vibrant and green. The rainy season typically brings more births and lush vegetation for wildlife to feed on.
Whether you’re visiting for the migration, game drives, or to explore the natural beauty, Serengeti National Park offers a thrilling safari experience year-round. Let Onyesha Expeditions – Tanzania help you plan the perfect time for your Serengeti adventure!

Client Feedback & Reviews
Our family's safari experience with Onyesha Expeditions was nothing short of magical. From tracking lions in the Serengeti to watching elephants at the watering hole at sunset, every moment was carefully curated. Our guide, James, had an encyclopedic knowledge of wildlife and made sure our kids were engaged throughout. This was truly the trip of a lifetime.
As a solo traveler, I was initially hesitant about booking a safari, but Onyesha Expeditions made the entire experience seamless. The attention to detail was impressive - from the luxury lodges to the perfectly timed game drives. I managed to photograph all of the Big Five, and our guide knew exactly where to position our vehicle for the best shots. Worth every penny!
My wife and I chose Onyesha Expeditions for our honeymoon safari, and they exceeded all expectations. The private candlelit dinner under the stars, the hot air balloon ride over the savanna, and the intimate wildlife encounters created memories we'll cherish forever. The staff's professionalism and warmth made us feel like family.
