Places worth your time
What to see in Serengeti

Seronera Valley
Seronera Valley is one of the strongest anchors for a first visit, best approached with time rather than as a quick stop.
Mara River
At Mara River, careful timing gives the setting more space and makes the wider story easier to understand.
Ndutu plains
Ndutu plains adds a contrasting perspective and helps connect the guide’s history, landscape and daily life.
Western Corridor
