The popular southern/central part (Seronera Valley) is what the Maasai called the “Serengit”, which means the land of endless plains. During your Game drive in the Park you will encounter a wide variety of wildlife ranging from Carnivores such as Lions, Cheetahs, Hyenas and Leopards.
Also you will see a wide variety of Herbivores including the Buffaloes, Antelopes, giraffes and most importantly you will be amazed by the great Wildebeest migration where over a million wildebeest and about 200,000 zebras flow south from the northern hills to the southern plains for the short rains every October and November, and then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and June. So strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought, gorge or crocodile infested river can hold them back.
"However If you would like to experience wildlife from another point of view, we recommend you to go on a balloon safari. It is an amazing experience to fly above the plains and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the wildlife".
