Serengeti National Park
Resident wildlife numbers are exceptionally high in the Wagakuria area, with a pride of lions up to 30 strong. From August to October, the area turns into a wildlife paradise. The key feature is the Mara River, and it is not uncommon to see the herds cross the Mara River north on one day and then back south a few days later. Please note that finding an actual crossing is difficult and is sometimes a matter of luck.
