The Serengeti Destination Guide is now LIVE!
The Serengeti is perhaps the most famous Safari destination of all. Thanks to its biodiversity and big cat populations as well as the annual Great Migration, the Serengeti has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has been featured in countless documentaries. It so quintessentially represents African wildlife that it served as the inspiration for Disney's The Lion King. (I was excited to learn that Pride Rock wasn't just a convenience for storytelling but based on the kopjes, or rocky outcroppings, that dot the Serengeti.)
I expected a few things, like that we'd see animals in their natural habitat and that we'd stay in unique lodgings, but I was blown away by the unexpected. I didn't realize just how close we'd be able to get to the animals; I certainly didn't imagine being just a few feet from lunching lions. I also didn't realize just how many animals we'd see. I thought we'd spend the majority of our time searching, with a few sightings interspersed through our day. Instead, it was flipped, and we were rarely without something exciting to see and interesting tidbits from our guide.
On top of all that, I was blown away by the hospitality. Not only did our lodges manage to pull off impossible levels of luxury in truly remote locations, but we were pampered by the most incredible hosts. The staff blew us away with their warmth, attention to detail, and expertise. The food and accommodations were as good, but likely better, than anywhere we’ve stayed in the world, and we got to enjoy it all in relative solitude.
From the epic wildlife sightings and journeys across sweeping landscapes to the more understated moments conversing with warm, genuine hosts or simply enjoying the sounds of nature, the Serengeti is a place that sticks in my mind. If you're ever blessed with a chance to visit, jump on it. Your only concern will be that you, too, will spend your life dreaming of your return to this magical place.
