A Trip of a Lifetime
The Serengeti National Park was one of 4 parks we visited in Tanzania. The incredible expanse of grasslands is overwhelming and it's teeming with wildlife. We were able to watch a huge pride of lions as the moved into position for the night's adventures. Our guide knew just where to find every animal on the plains. We saw leopards (plural) with their kills in the trees on both days. Cheetah were the first animals we saw as we entered the park - how beautiful! Elephants, giraffe, monkeys, hippos, birds (the Rollers are beautiful), were also everywhere.
The Serengeti Serena lodge was one of my trip favorites. I thought the food was excellent and you really felt like you were right among the landscape as we were. If having two Cape Buffalo right outside your hut is not enough excitement, you're just jaded. The service and accommodations were excellent too.
The weather was dry and not too hot. If it rained, we didn't see it.
Our guide and LandCruiser through Leopard tours were first rate. He knew so much and was so gracious explaining the land, the wildlife and the culture of his much loved country.

Ngorongoro has a huge number of wild animals within a fairly small space.

Amazing wildlife
We were very lucky with the animals we saw, including lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffes, elephants, hippos, crocodiles, vervet monkeys, baboons, warthogs, hyenas, jackals, and flamingos, huge numbers of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles, and many others. Our guide was very good, and our cook prepared surprisingly good food for us. The tents in which we camped were fine, but the bathrooms at the campsites were disgusting.

Review about Tanzania by Mark
Tanzania is one of the best places in the world, if not the best, for seeing large mammals in the wild. It's not as touristy as some other countries in Africa. The people are friendly, and the culture is interesting (particularly the Maasai).

Review about Tarangire National Park by bruges00
Great to see especially baobabs and elephants, among others. Lovely scenaries along the river. Quite impressive some accomodations inside the park, because of the marvellous locations where they have been built. I'd stay not less than 2 days.

Review about Serengeti National Park by bruges00
Its fame is well deserved. Absolutely magnificent. Huge and with different scenaries and types of natural environments. The area near Seronera is especially beautiful and full of wild animals. Pity that at times it may be slightly crowded (too many jeeps around). The area near Lobo is somewhat less spectacular and less rich of animals. Best experience for me was spending some nights in a tented camp. 2/3 days in serengeti are a must.

Amazing experience
I found NCA a magnificent park. Unique scenary, wild animals basically everywhere and easily to spot and see while they e.g. move, drink from the lake, hunt, rest.
1/2 days in ngorongoro is in my opinion enough as the crater is not that big. Accomodation is somewhat expensive and one may consider staying in one of the villages just outisde the NCA for good accomodation at molre reasonable prices. A trek on the Empakai crater possibly walking , guided by a masai, as far as lake natron is an amazing experience.

The wildlife is so varied and the scenery is superb. One of the mose beautiful sites is the sunrise and sunsets in the Serengeti and at the top of Ngorongoro Crater.
