Experience the excitement and romance of the African savannah? This strategy is enough! Africa, a distant and mysterious land. Before I came to Tanzania, all my imaginations and longings came from Hemingway's "The Snow of Kilimanjaro". I hope to stand in the hero's life. Place to experience the excitement and romance of the African savanna. You must go to the Serengeti Prairie for a lifetime. There are a wide variety of natural and cultural landscapes, and groups of wild animals can be seen everywhere, and the most fascinating is year after year. The animals on this land have migrated. About time Animal migration is actually a cycle of one year, starting from June until May of the following year, but the climax of animal migration - a million horses The crossing of the Mara River is from July to September, so these three months are the best time for the migration of ornamental animals. About traffic Tanzania There are three international passenger airports, namely Dar es Salaam, Zanzibar, Kilimanjaro At the international airport, there are two options for going to the Serengeti Prairie. One is to drive to Moxie after landing at Kilimanjaro International Airport; the other is to depart from Kilimanjaro Airport and fly to Moore in about 50 minutes. Arusha Airport, the home base of COASTAL Airlines, has taken over all visitors who want to go to the Serengeti National Park. When you visit the prairie, you need to book a car rental service. In general, the rental of a jeep at a local specialized Safari company costs around 300 a day. It is important to note that drivers who have long working hours and experienced drivers must be selected as the driver's role and as a guide to the entire grassland. His experience and intuition directly determine the grassland. Experience good and bad, experienced drivers can accurately grasp the whereabouts of animals, and if you are successful, you can see many rare animals. About photography African savanna is undoubtedly a paradise for photographers. The natural landscape and wildlife that are full of charm are worthy of being recorded by the lens. Here, even if you are sitting in the car, you can be very close to the animals, sometimes they will actively approach the car and interact with the tourists, so if you don't want to bring too heavy equipment, the 200mm lens is also You can shoot good animal close-ups. But for photography enthusiasts, I still recommend a telephoto lens with a telephoto, after all, here is the vast expanse of the prairie!

Take a look at the beautiful African savanna with hot air balloon and "Iron Man"~ There are four viewing spots around the world. You can't fully experience the beauty of the scenery without a hot air balloon - Australia The Great Barrier Reef, the second is the Egyptian pyramid, the third is the Turkish weathered rock area, and the fourth is the African savanna. About the hot air balloon h The drone is not allowed on the Serengeti prairie, so taking a hot air balloon is the only way you can get a bird's eye view. The hot air balloon is the safest extreme sport. If you want to see the whole picture of the Serengeti prairie, you need to make a reservation in the local company website specializing in hot air balloon flight projects. The balloon company special off-road vehicle arrives at the flight point. Along the way, I have captured a lot of hot air balloons that have risen to the sky. ride experience hot air balloon basket has a total of 8 grids, each grid can hold 1-2 people, so a hot air balloon can only have a dozen people flying. The way to enter the hot air balloon is very interesting. Unlike the traditional direct walk into the basket, the hot air balloon here is initially placed on the ground, so you are not standing upright, but are squatting. Lying in, waiting for the staff to ignite Peng, etc., after the air is heated and inflated from the airbag opening until it can be lifted up, the basket will be hung up, and you will naturally stand upright with the seat belt. The pilot of my hot air balloon ride has a very rich experience. He is a native of Tanzania and has obtained a lot of flight certificates in the United States. To be honest, I think the pilot looks like Iron Man. After lifted off, I did appreciate the completely different Serengeti prairie. Hot air balloons can be lifted and lowered, and the minimum can be lowered to 2 or 3 meters from the ground. The sound of the fire-breathing fire from the animals will be very spectacular. suggestions It is highly recommended to experience the hot air balloon project during the animal migration (June-August), which will definitely make you unforgettable. About 600 dollars a person, too small children can not ride ~

[100][!]You won't understand the lasting impact until you've been to Tanzania. Every morning you wake up longing to run to the savanna—there are so many animals here that just glancing out the window, you'll spot a furry creature. That feeling of "being one with nature" fills the air with the scent of freedom. [HeartBeat]Let's start with the most common "background characters" on the savanna. Wildebeests and zebras are everywhere you look, especially wildebeests—their massive herds look like moving piles of rocks from afar, and when they run, their hooves pound the ground with a "thud-thud-thud" that rattles the car windows. They love hanging out with zebras: wildebeests have a keen sense of smell to detect distant water, while zebras have sharp eyes to spot hidden dangers in the grass. These two species team up better than humans at mutual aid. Then there are giraffes, their necks so long they can reach treetops effortlessly. They stroll leisurely, covering great distances with each step, and when eating leaves, their tongues curl around them like chopsticks—elegance disguised as practicality. [Heart]Now for the "surprise encounters" of this trip. Ostriches are the ultimate attention-seekers—clumsy-looking yet impossible to miss on the plains. Once, while we stopped to take photos, one suddenly burst out of the grass, wings spread like little flags, squawking at our car. Our guide said it thought we were invading its turf, so we quickly drove off, watching it tilt its head at us in the rearview mirror—adorably silly. [Love]Leopards are truly elusive. Our guide said they sleep in trees during the day, and after four days of searching, we finally spotted one curled up on an old acacia. Its spots blended into the shadows, tail swaying gently like it was keeping rhythm. Suddenly, its ears twitched, and it slid down the trunk as lightly as a leaf—a young antelope had wandered below. Holding my breath, I watched it stalk behind the antelope before pouncing with explosive force, a moment far more gripping than anything on TV, leaving my palms sweaty. [SunGlasses]Lions are far more laid-back, exuding "boss" energy. The most amusing sight was a pride our guide said sleeps over ten hours a day, relying on ambushes to hunt. Their lazy demeanor reminded me of house cats—just dozens of times larger and infinitely more majestic. [DoubleHearts]Monkeys are the savanna's mischief-makers. Once, with my window slightly open and a piece of bread in hand, a little monkey zipped onto the roof and snatched it through the gap, quick as lightning. It even stuck out its tongue at me, cheeks stuffed, making me want to bop its head. Our guide said they hold grudges—next time, it might remember me. I’m weirdly looking forward to a rematch. [RedHeart][RedHeart][RedHeart]But what truly left me breathless were the elephants. My first close encounter was in an acacia grove. From afar, I heard their deep breaths and the rustling of trees as a herd ambled into view. The matriarch, the largest, effortlessly stripped branches with her trunk, while a baby trailed behind, clumsily mimicking her until it toppled over, trunk still defiantly raised. The mother gently lifted it back up—more tenderly than a human cradling a newborn. The most touching moment came on our last day, when an old bull elephant wandered alone. His wrinkled legs moved slowly, like tree bark. Passing our car, he paused, trunk swaying toward the window as if saying, "Goodbye." In that moment, he wasn’t just an animal—he felt like a friend. Stay in Tanzania long enough, and you’ll see: these animals aren’t exhibits—they’re living their lives. Wildebeests migrate, zebras cooperate, ostriches throw tantrums, leopards laze, lions parent, monkeys prank, and elephants, with their gentle wisdom, teach you the "power of life." Following their rhythms—watching dawn stretch elephant shadows long and sunset paint lions’ manes gold—gives you a grounded, vibrant joy no city can match. Seriously, if you love animals, come to Tanzania. The wind here carries stories, and an elephant’s gaze will stay with you forever. Tanzania · Africa

Whether it is used as a relay station before or after the Safari, or as a short break in the small town of Karatu, this place is highly recommended! Will come back again if I have the chance in the future!
