Temparatures in Serengeti
There is a common perception that Africa is a very hot region, but the climate in the Serengeti is actually very pleasant and mild. The weather rarely becomes uncomfortable, with temperatures dropping during the night and early in the morning. With significant temperature variations between day and night, it’s hard to imagine needing winter outerwear in Tanzania. Serengeti has a steppe climate with dry and rainy seasons. Temperatures rarely exceed 37°C on hot afternoons during the rainy season and can drop below 10°C on cold mornings during the dry season.

The greatest evolutionary scenery
More than 1 million wildebeests and hundreds of thousands of zebras travel hundreds of kilometers each year, making it the largest mammal migration on earth.
The Great Migration of animals occurs because animals seek a more suitable living environment. During this long migration, there are many dangers along the way, and the animals experience life, old age, illness, and death. Many people think that the Great Migration of East African Animals is an annual event. In fact, it is a marathon with no end.
The timing of the migration varies according to different seasons and rainfall patterns. In search of greener pastures, the wildlife move the ecosystem cyclically, moving from south to west, north and back to the south again, in a clockwise manner, repeating this cycle every year.
As long as you choose the right place at the right time, you can participate in the world's largest migration of land mammals.
