While the migration spans both Tanzania and Kenya, Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park is where most of the action happens. The park’s vast, open plains provide the perfect backdrop for the herds as they traverse its seemingly endless grasslands. From May to July, the animals make their way north toward the Mara River, another perilous crossing where survival depends on timing and luck

Blown away is how I would describe my first trip to Tanzania! Arriving in the hustle and bustle of Arusha, a small African town from which you depart on safari, there is no indication of what’s to come.
