5 Must-See Wildlife Moments on a Serengeti Safari

In this era of hectic life, a relaxing and adventurous trip is mandatory. A Serengeti Safari is an adventure into one of the greatest natural theatres on earth. From endless golden grasslands to grand river crossings, the Serengeti provides a ringside seat to some of the planet's most amazing wildlife spectacles. With Twiga Tours as your hosts, you can witness these moments in informed comfort.
The Great Migration River Crossing: One of the most dramatic scenes in the animal world, wildebeest and zebra's annual river crossings are an adrenaline-fueled spectacle of survival. See thousands of animals dive into crocodile-tainted waters—a spectacle no wildlife lover would want to miss.
Big Cat Hunts at Dawn: Early morning is the best time to observe lions, cheetahs, and leopards in their natural habitats. Twiga Tours' knowledgeable guides recognize where and when to find these shy predators at their most active.
Elephant Herds During Sunset: When the sun sets below the horizon, enormous elephant herds congregate around waterholes. Their kind interactions and family connections provide a serene, poignant respite from the day's action.
The Circle of Life: Prey vs Predator: From stalking lions to the gazelle's hasty escape, the Serengeti unfolds the unglamorized, untold tales of survival that characterize life in the wild.
Birdlife Bonanza: With more than 500 species, the Serengeti is every birder's dream. Have your binoculars at the ready for everything from flamingos to martial eagles flying overhead.
