## About Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park is a world-renowned national park located in Tanzania, East Africa. It is known for its vast savannahs, diverse wildlife, and the annual wildebeest migration.

The park covers an area of 14,763 square kilometers and is home to a variety of animals, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many others. It is also a bird watcher's paradise, with over 500 species of birds recorded in the park.
One of the main attractions of the Serengeti is the wildebeest migration, which takes place every year between June and November. During this time, millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move in search of fresh grazing lands, attracting large predators like lions and crocodiles.
The Serengeti is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is considered one of the best wildlife sanctuaries in the world. It is also a popular destination for safari tours and attracts thousands of visitors every year.

### Best time to visit Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti National Park in Tanzania is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit largely depends on what you want to see and do there. The dry season, from late June to October, is generally considered the best time to visit Serengeti National Park. During this time, the vegetation is low, making it easier to spot wildlife, and the animals tend to congregate around water sources, making game viewing particularly rewarding. The wildebeest migration also takes place during this time, with July and August being the prime months to witness this spectacular event.
If you prefer a quieter time to visit, then the low season from April to May and November to mid-December can be a good option. During this time, the park is less crowded, and you can often find good deals on accommodation and safari tours.
