Seronera Valley in Tanzania’s northern circuit.

Seronera Valley is famous for four major features: it is the best predator viewing section or destination in Africa; it is the most important area in the Serengeti National Park; it is home to the Serengeti Lion Project; and it is known for its quintessential American savannah landscape. There is no better place in the world for the African big cat than the Seronera Valley. As you travel through the Seronera valley, you will come across wonderful predator encounters such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas. These predators are found along with other small predators in the Seronera valley, such as the serval, the mongoose, the jackals, and the foxes. The word “seronera” is a Maasai word from “Siron”, which means the place of the big-eared fox.

Visitors entering the Seronera valley in Serengeti National Park are in the southern park around the Naabi Hill Gate, and this gate opens its doors into the Seronera valley. The valley encompasses the open, grassy plains that are crossed by several rivers, and it is these rivers that have ensured that the valley keeps attracting all of the animals because of their presence. This is one of the reasons why we are also part of the world in the Seronera area of the Serengeti National Park. The Seronera valley is mostly covered with rocks known as Kopjes, which means “little head” in Dutch due to the pronunciation of the words, as it is in the Dutch dialect, and this implies the gathering of the huge rocks, which are granite formed by the volcano’s weathering. Over time, distinct softening shapes rise from the plains, a haven of shade and water for all animals during the dry season.

The kopjes of the Seronera valley are in the Serengeti National Park, which provides a wonderful environment for navigation by the visitors on game drive safaris. The most famous kopjes in the Seronera valley in the northern Tanzania circuit include the Gol, Maasai, Moro Kopjies, and the Liliondo, which are the best known. Still, within the serenity bally, there are incredible traces of the Masai rock paintings. These were done hundreds of years ago, but they can still be seen throughout the valley, especially on the Moro Kopjes. These rocks can be reached through the bush and are best accessed during the dry season as the rains may hamper accessibility to these wonderful rock formations. Buffaloes, topi, hartebeest, impala, waterbuck, reedbuck, and dik-dik, different giraffes, warthogs, and a diverse array of birds of all tones and sizes live in the Seronera Valley. The lion prides here are so renowned that they enticed the main safari game-hunting initiatives here a century ago, and these rolling southern fields down to the Naabi Gate are the region in Tanzania where you are most likely to encounter cheetah. The Seronera riverbanks’ lines of chestnut trees provide the right temperature for drowsy panthers to hide on sun-dappled branches, and lions stroll freely throughout.

The Seronera valley in the northern Serengeti National Park is a key area for wildlife viewing in the Serengeti National Park, and it is because of this that the valley has attracted serious investors who have established permanent lodges in the area to provide visitors with a variety of lodging options. Most tourists prefer reaching out to the Seronera valley because of the best and most wonderful adventure safaris.

From April to June, the Great Migration passes through the Central Serengeti on its way to the green fields and never-ending water sources of the Northern Serengeti, and then returns from November to December, when the groups follow the rains to the Southern Serengeti pastures and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Thomson gazelles, which migrate east during the green season, return to this area during the dry season because they can see long-term water supplies here, followed by cheetahs and hyenas.

The Seronera Valley Safari with hot air balloons

As per the rules of conservation and protecting the wildlife, the hot air balloon safaris in the Serengeti National Park are conducted only in the Seronera valley. The rules of the Serengeti National Park are very clear, though they appear to be stringent, aimed at ensuring the pristine wildlife of the Serengeti National Park is strictly protected. Zooming within the bush as you’re looking at the wonderful wildlife creatures is an experience in itself that you will live to remember. If you want to explore the wildlife of the Serengeti National Park from different angles, you can achieve this by taking a hot air balloon safari, which is done in the Seronera valley or Seronera region.

Visitors who are interested in the hot air balloon safaris should arrive early in the morning. With the appropriate attire for your hotel, you will be picked up or driven to the starting point in the morning by your guide. You need to prepare in advance because sometimes you will need to wake up early when there is still some darkness and you will take the warm jumper and start the drive to the hot air balloon starting point for bridging. The pilots and technical team will assemble the hot air balloon safari before you arrive. Travelers also exit into a flat bushel, which is delicately expanded vertically as a massive air pocket rises. This is a fantastic way to get a whole different perspective on the fields below, giving you a true sense of the vast spaces beneath you and creating beautiful visual open doors. If the relocation is in the Seronera district, an inflatable expedition is especially beneficial.

In any case, the game survey potential is limited. Following the expedition, guests are treated to a magnificent champagne breakfast under the shade of a spreading acacia with breathtaking views all around. Breakfast is a lavish and joyous affair, laid out across a long and friendly table with much enthusiasm and warmth as the sun cools down. Whatever the allure of floating over the Serengeti in a hot air balloon, it’s an exquisite treat when you consider the cost. The cost varies a little with the seasons, so plan on spending roughly $375 per person for the full adventure.
