The Serengeti is a vast ecosystem located in northern Tanzania, extending into southwestern Kenya. The only proper way to visit the Serengeti is on a guided tour in a land cruiser. Although there is a main road through the park, many of the vehicles stray off of this route once in the park. Bear in mind, the vehicles have facilities for observation and photography. The guides will not allow you to get out on foot unless it is at a stop they know to be safe
This route starts at the Naabi Hill Gate - the southern entrance on the road to Arusha (about 4 hrs drive away) and finishes at the Ranger station near Seronara Airstrip. The Naabi Hill Gate (marked with 1 on the map) serves as an administrative checkpoint where visitors can pay for and obtain permits. The gate is situated on a small hill, offering stunning views of the surrounding plains.
