The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands, which allow for excellent sightings of wildlife. Whilst it boasts abundant wildlife, it is perhaps best known for the annual Great Migration. Vast numbers of wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The migration can be found during any given month - you just need to know where to look. Depending on what time of year you come, you may get a chance to witness one of the "Seven Wonders of the Natural World".
