The great wildebeest migration passes through the Central Serengeti, which is home to giraffe, impala, waterbuck, hippo, elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard, hyena, jackal, serval and much more. The Serengeti also offers popular activities such as cultural tours, horse riding safaris and hot air ballooning (please inquire if interested).
