Serengeti National Park in Tanzania is a premier safari destination, strongly recommended for guided visits to navigate its vastness, ensure safety, and optimize wildlife viewing, though self-driving is an option for experienced individuals. Accessibility is primarily via light aircraft to internal airstrips, followed by 4x4 safari vehicles. While open year-round, peak seasons for the Great Migration vary (July-October in the north for river crossings; December-March in the south for calving), each offering unique experiences. Costs are significant, with daily park fees around $70-80 USD per person, and all-inclusive safari packages typically ranging from $300 to over $1000 USD per person per day, depending on luxury and duration. A typical visit lasts 3-7 days to fully immerse in the diverse ecosystems and increase chances of sighting the 'Big Five'. Visitors should pack light, bring binoculars, a good camera, and consider malaria prophylaxis.
