Tanzania has set aside an astonishing 40% of its land area for wildlife in the form of national parks and conservation areas. Likely the most famous is the Serengeti, a vast expanse of grassland savannas and arbored forests. The Serengeti is home to 28 hoofed animals and hundreds of bird and insect species – truly an amazing place to explore and observe wildlife in the most natural of habitats.
