Where is Serengeti National Park?

Sitting in North Eastern Tanzania, Serengeti is every tourist dream destination and the perfect Tanzania wildlife safari destination. It is a vast stretch of savannah grassland filled with wildlife stretching to Masai Mara where those on a Kenya wildlife safari meet the wonder.

The almost endless lush grasslands of Serengeti are the richest grazing grounds in the country, and therefore home to the prime herds and the biggest number of predators.

What is a safari game drive?

A game drive is far different from its word definition. It’s actually a safari activity done in either a safari park or conservation areas using a 4×4 safari car for close wildlife sightings. Game drives in Serengeti national park are the best part of any wildlife safari in Tanzania.

On a game drive you will see wonderful local wildlife of Serengeti which may include wildebeest, lions, rhinos, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, leopards and any other random specie. If you found yourself in Serengeti’s incredible wild spaces, you will have to witness the wild wonders of Tanzania in amazement.

For a Serengeti game drive come ready to have the best exciting and heart-breaking moments of the wild.

Types of Tanzania wildlife safari game drives in Serengeti

The game drives can be done in three different time in which you can choose from;

Morning/Sunrise Game Drives

Taking a game drive in the morning with the cool morning breeze of the plains will leave you with memories of Serengeti at its most active time. The early morning game drive starts as early as before 6:00am so remember to wear something warm.

The morning hours are the best times for game viewing as the predators take an early morning hunt, in these hours when every animal is still strong and fresh, watching the chase is thrilling. At this time the birds are making the great melodies of the morning as the sun starts to peep out, it’s a great time for seeing an African sunrise in the wild.

Evening/Sunset Game Drives

At dusk, heading for a sunset game drive after a day’s relaxation is amazing as you see the wildlife trying to make an evening kill. What you might meet at this cool sundowner moment is not predictable, it could either be a pride of lion or the numerous wildebeests.

Take a Tanzania safari and get your senses involved in a drive with thousands of wildlife as they trample and roar in the endless plains of Serengeti.

Full Day Game Drives
