Top 5 of the most beautiful lodges in the Serengeti

Late June on the plains of the Serengeti. The savannah is dry. One to two million wildebeest, zebra and gazelle gather to answer the call of the North. They soon begin their great migration towards the Masai Mara, creating one of the greatest spectacles the animal world has to offer. More than six million hooves tread the plains on their journey to Kenya, a phenomenon that makes the Serengeti so magical and famous. But even without migration, Tanzania's oldest and most famous national park lives up to its reputation. Without doubt the most beautiful of all safari destinations. The high plateaux of the Serengeti, their savannah dotted with acacia trees, are the setting for the fabulous spectacle of African nature. Immerse yourself in one of the world's most beautiful and fascinating ecosystems. Take advantage of this wild abundance by staying in the heart of nature in one of the magnificent lodges in our selection.
