Here we will spend two days, since this is the largest National Park in Tanzania and one of the largest wildlife sanctuaries in the World. The landscape of the park, with its low vegetation and vast seas of open plain, is ideal for game viewing. The Serengeti is famed for its annual migrations of the Wildebeest, Zebra, and Gazelle. As these massive Herds of herbivores search for new grazing ground, they are tracked and hunted by an impressive array of carnivorous Predators such as Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs and Hyenas. Buffalo, Elephant, Giraffe, Hippo, Antelope, Ostrich, Jackal, Baboon and Dik-Dik also inhabit these vast plains and woodlands. The birdlife in the Serengeti is surprisingly abundant, with nearly almost 500 species of birds having been recorded in the Serengeti National Park. Serena Lodge is set high on a hilltop, with magnificent views of the sweeping Serengeti plains, the lodge is reminiscent of a traditional African village emulating traditional Maasai huts. Built in the time-honored hut style and houses deluxe luxury rooms with en-suite facilities. Over night at Serengeti Serena Lodge (FB)
