If you love to photograph wildlife this is the place to be
We stayed at the Serengeti Serena Lodge which was very pleasant. The food and accommodation was good although you do not spend that much time in your hotel. There was also a swimming pool which was another positive.
Our guide Ahmad was brilliant. He had great knowledge regarding the animals and areas we visited. His listened to what we wanted to do as well as giving us great advice. He helped make our holiday a great experience.
We also visited Lake Manyara National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. Each environment we visited was different but special in its own way. We found

the Tanzanian people to be very friendly and loved English football!We saw so many animals including the big five and most of the small five.
Be prepared for tipping hotel staff and your guide at the end of your trip. Make sure you have adequate American dollars in small notes. If you need Tanzanian shillings these can be obtained from an ATM. We got ours at the airport. This is useful for villages and markets.
If you visit a Masai village you will be charged an entrance fee. However you will be allowed to take unlimited photos. Be aware that they will show you gifts to purchase after the tour. If you can try to visit a local market as it is an amazing experience. Photos of people are difficult as they expect payment in return.
All in all I would highly recommend. This was a holiday of a lifetime.
One very important note. There are toilets at the entrances to the parks we visited and at the picnic grounds. They were well maintained.

Not many animals and bad roads. Beautiful nature though.

Visited in March of 2020 with Afrozone Kingdom Safaris. The endless plains of the Serengatti are a must see. Wildlife sightseeing at a scale that can only be appreciated on location. I dont know how one could imagine millions of gnous (wildebeasts) without being there. Abundance of lions. But to me, the highlight of this part of the safari was the sighting of a leopard which is also a rare opportunity. Not to overlook, between the Serengatti and Ngorongoro parks are the Masaii villages. Excellent cultural experience.

Easily the best safari experience from any of the 4 parks we visited. Widest variety of animals and most picturesque park.

I have never experienced such a variety of animals and landscapes before. Camping in the middle of the park is simply magic

The endless plane is a real gem, is exactly how you can dream it. We had the privilege of seeing the most beautiful sunset in the park. To me Serengeti was grounding, it reconnected me to earth and nature. I would spend a month there.
