Excursions into Serengeti National Park for Seeing Wild Animals

While a Serengeti National Park game drive does not require any specific items from you, Active African Vacation tour operator will give you the rundown on what to pack and offer useful tips. Typically, the vehicle will have water available, and the guide will likely have one or two guidebooks on hand—not that you’ll really need them, but they’re there in case you do, owing to their extensive knowledge. In contrast, the majority of tourists choose to travel with binoculars so they may observe distant or smaller wildlife. To record some of the animals you see, think about carrying a camera or even just your phone. Put on extra sunscreen and weather-appropriate clothing if you plan on being out in the open for longer than two hours.

Morning wildlife game drive in Serengeti National Park

Game drives in the Serengeti habitat are best enjoyed first thing in the morning, around 6:00 or 6:30 in the morning, when the animals are just starting to stir and search for a spot to graze. Not only can you hear the sounds of birds and other wildlife, but you can also see them more clearly in the morning, when most birds are active. One of the most popular things to do in the world, seeing the sunrise in the Serengeti wilderness on this morning’s game drive is sure to be an unforgettable experience.

Those are the kinds of memories you’ll never forget. You can’t buy experience. And that’s just the beginning of your day. In the tranquility of the Serengeti, you should savor your morning meal with a mug of coffee or tea.

Afternoon game drive in Serengeti National Park

While this is an additional wildlife drive option in the Serengeti habitat, it pales in comparison to the drives that depart in the wee hours of the morning or late at night. This is because the sun makes the area hot, and there’s a chance that you’ll see too many cars on the road to see the animals in their native environment. While some of the animals continue to graze, others take refuge under the shade of the trees, either because they’ve had enough of the sun or because they’ve had their fill of the grass. One of the many wonderful aspects of this excursion is the opportunity to enjoy a picnic lunch in the wilderness, creating a beautiful and memorable experience.

Another popular attraction for visitors to Serengeti National Park, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for an unforgettable, enchanted experience. Night game drives are more popular than day ones since it’s easier to see animals that are active only at night, such as cheetahs. Not only can you see these active beasts during the night, but you can also hear the roar of a lion from eight kilometers away and other wild animals’ calls in a clear and lovely way.

You need to feel at ease, listen carefully, and trust the game ranger with the pistol who will be accompanying you on the night game drive because their job is to keep dangerous creatures from posing a threat.

In Serengeti National Park, when and where  is the best to go on a game drive

There are a number of spots in the Serengeti National Park where you can go on a game drive; it all depends on the view you’re hoping to acquire. Going on a game drive in the same spot where the wildebeest are landing is a must if you want to witness the migration in action, since that’s where most tourists go.

During the months of January and February, game drives are permitted in the Ndutu district, as this is the time when the wildebeest give birth in this region. Between April and June, you’ll need to adhere to them in Seronera and the central Serengeti parts of the Serengeti National Park. Then, from July to October, you’ll need to observe them as you bridge the Mara River and land in Grumeti river to access the Maasai Mara game reserve in Kenya.
