Le Serengeti est le parc national le plus célèbre de Tanzanie et l'une des sept merveilles naturelles de l'Afrique. Couvrant une superficie de 14 763 km² de savane ouverte, de forêts et de zones riveraines, il abrite la plus grande migration terrestre de la planète : 1,5 million de gnous et 250 000 zèbres qui se déplacent en suivant un cycle continu. On y trouve des lions, des léopards, des guépards, des éléphants et des buffles toute l'année, ce qui en fait l'écosystème de grande faune le plus complet d'Afrique.
