Serengeti Has A Lot To Offer Than Just Game Drives

There is a great deal of things to do in Serengeti other than just game drives. The Serengeti fits wonderfully into most folks’ fantasy of an African safari with its plentiful wildlife, massive golden plains speckled with barbed umbrella acacia trees, sausage and kopjes trees, and its hippo and crocodile packed rivers. While planning your time to this incredible land, you will wish to consider its massive dimension and the timing of your trip to make sure the finest viewing experience. I loved my time in the Serengeti and I definitely like to share my experience. 

The main attraction of the Serengeti is the Great Migration & the superb wildlife viewing opportunities, but there’re other things one might wish to take into account adding to their itinerary. Below I have mentioned my top 4 things to do in Serengeti. Hope you will like this list.



Pay a trip to the Serengeti Visitor Center:

Well, the Serengeti Visitor Centre shouldn’t be missed a trip for its self-guide walking route that offers useful signs & exhibits regarding the past of the Serengeti, its wildlife and its ecosystem. You’re likely to witness some wildlife down the track, including birds, rock hyraxes and intensely colored Agama lizards. This is also a great place to halt for a lunch break as this center possess a restroom, an outdoor picnic area, a coffee and snack shop, and a gift store as well. The center is open daily from 8.00am-5.00pm. 

Don’t miss a trip to a Maasai Village:

The Serengeti ecology has long been home to the Maasai, a semi-nomadic folks who reside in Northern Tanzania and Southern Tanzania down the Great Rift Valley. They’re the most popular native tribes in East Africa to travelers because of their home near and inside many of the renowned game parks, their constant engagement in their habitual ways of life, and their unique traditional outfit. A great deal of Maasai villages greets travelers to visit & learn regarding their traditions, cultures, and lifestyle. 



Relish a night game drive:

A night game drive offers the unique chance to witness a great many number of nocturnal creatures, such as bush babies, civets, aardvarks, nightjars, and even predators on the hunt. Exploring new creatures is certainly a highlight of these evening game drives, but these drives also offer you the unique opportunity to explore your surroundings from an extremely different point of view. 

Enjoy an aerial view of the Serengeti:

Wish a bird’s eye sight of the Serengeti? Possibly the best way to witness this incredible space is to spend an hour or so hanging in a hot air balloon on top of the plain at morning. Witness the daybreak on top of the “never-ending plains” and then come down to treetop level to sight the animals prior to they look for cover to break away from the temperature of the day.
