Experiencing firsthand the sounds of the African savanna means we are in one of the most iconic parks in Africa, Serengeti National Park.

This park, spanning over 18,000 km², offers an endless array of breathtaking sights: the solitude of a giraffe or an acacia on the horizon, and beyond, stretching as far as the eye can see across the vast plains, hundreds of thousands of wildebeests, zebras, Thomson’s gazelles, and other ungulates grazing on the park’s rich grasses.

In the southern region, the expansive plains shared by the Ngorongoro and Serengeti parks provide grass rich in nutrients, essential for wildebeest mothers to produce milk for their calves. During January and February, over 8,000 calves are born each day. Within minutes they stand, and within an hour, they can run— their only defense against predators.

The endless volcanic grasslands, granite rock formations known as Kopjes, acacia forests and date palm groves, and mighty rivers like the Grumeti and Mara are some of the ecosystems that the Great Migration of over 1 million wildebeests and zebras must navigate to reach the grazing lands of the neighboring Maasai Mara in Kenya. This paradise for ungulates is also a vital hunting ground for predators like lions, leopards, and cheetahs, as well as scavengers such as hyenas and vultures.

Listening to the sounds of the savanna at dusk around the fire in our unique, low-impact camp, possibly the most environmentally friendly in the entire park, is an unforgettable experience. The Serengeti hypnotizes and connects us with nature in its purest form.
