Sharing the unique ecosystem of the Serengeti, the Masai Mara National Reserve can also be visited in Kenya. The vast plains are home to an impressive animal life, including the Big Five: lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and rhinoceroses. Moreover, since this reserve connects to the Serengeti National Park, stopping in Tanzania is a great time. It covers nearly 14,750 square kilometers, allowing its great migrations to occur. Again, the Big Five and the tremendous annual migrations of wildebeest and zebra are present. For those willing to go off the beaten track, the Selous Game Reserve in Tanzania, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a must. The vast plains, winding rivers, lakes, and fauna, including hippos, crocodiles and its diversity of birds, are crucial elements of Selous' scenery.
The Ngorongoro crater in Tanzania must be the next adventure. This area is highly preserved for its biodiversity, especially its volcanic crater, which has formed this unique ecosystem worldwide. Various animals have found refuge there, including the Big Five, flamingos, hippos, crocodiles and many bird species.
The change of scenery in Bwindi National Park in Uganda is spectacular. Here, an extraordinary spectacle can be witnessed. Indeed, the atmosphere is far from the savannahs of other African reserves. There are mostly mountain forests where gorillas, chimpanzees, birds, and beautiful butterflies live.
In Burundi, the Rusizi National Park promises an incredible encounter in a place whose natural beauty is worthy of paradise. Travelers will be amazed by observing the animal species. ◄
