Enormous felines meander all through Ngorongoro, the land ready to continue immense quantities of predators. Zebra, gazelle, wildebeest, warthog; there’s bounty to go around.

Ngorongoro’s mystery lies in its rich fruitful soil. The grass consistently develops, the trees consistently rise, and the savannah ceaselessly accommodates an enormous grouping of four-hoofed occupants. From the hole floor you can without much of a stretch make out the blueprint of all the cavity dividers. This is certainly not a major spot, and a 360º swing of the eyes takes in an uncountable assortment of major game as Ngorongoro gives the Big Five out of a day, maybe all in a solitary hour.

You know those wildlife documentaries about Africa, the ones that seem fictitious and more like a Disney film? The camera panning out to see hundreds of thousands of wildebeest dotting a grass plain; close up shots of a lion pride effortlessly taking down a zebra; elephants wandering across immense open landscapes, no sight of roads or mankind anywhere. Well, that is the Serengeti. At times it feels fictional. You pinch yourself as it becomes apparent that places like this still exist and you quickly learn that the documentaries offer only a glimpse at what happens in the Serengeti.

For three days you’re going to be right in the middle of it all. Gaze across the endless plains and make out the resident herds, the yellow grass dotted black by wildebeest and zebra. Almost two-million mammals rumble across the Serengeti during the great wildebeest migration, perennially following the same cycle and turning the plains into a great patchwork quilt. Not everything migrates, and some resident herds decide its better to stay put than make a 1,800-mile round journey. That doesn’t mean they’ll escape the predators. While a fearsome gang of big cats track the migration, a huge collection stays and patrol their own territory. The Serengeti isn’t about getting a glance of a lion or leopard. You’ll be finding them every day, perhaps out on a hunt, and often within a few meters of your quivering camera.

Game viewing is easy on these plains as the big mammals don’t have many places to hide. Elephants rumble in the distance, giraffes wait on the horizon, and ungulate herds graze without any protection. From your safari lodge these eternal views will accompany every morning wake up call and every leisurely evening as you recount the day. In the Serengeti the wildlife doesn’t stop, and you should expect to see an assorted cast of local residents roaming beside the lodge. Before entering the Serengeti on day six you’ll first stop at Olduvai Gorge, a place that holds the secret to human evolution. Over a million years before homo sapiens, Homo habilis and Homo erectus were living in this gorge. Their fossilized remains have an almost eerie feel. Stand over the valley and there are a few thought-provoking moments that linger in the air. Man probably wouldn’t have existed if it wasn’t for what happened here.

While the vast landscape remains remarkably constant, every game drive reveals something different. Stop for lunch and savor the sights of a hippo filled swamp. Explore the kopjes, rocky outcrops that are havens for lion prides escaping the afternoon sun. These are places where you might find lion and cheetah cubs taking their first steps. Buffalos square up and start a fight, great furry masses attacking each other and aiming for control of the female harem. Then there are the cute and delicate sights, like tiny dik dik, the world’s smallest antelope half hidden by the grass, or any one of the 500 bird species that soar through the air. There are colorful lovebirds and enigmatic cranes, as well as rowdy flocks of vultures and giant marabou storks.

The sights come thick and fast, something catching your eye every few minutes. But for all its abundant wildlife, it’s the sheer freedom of the Serengeti that is often most impressive. You’re exploring a land that seems to have no boundaries or endpoints. Just imagine a place where you’re surrounded by hundreds of miles of an ancient untamed ecosystem. This isn’t a place for fast-paced sightseeing or immediate visual gratification. Relax, absorb the atmosphere, and allow nature to slowly paint an evocative picture. The Serengeti certainly isn’t fictional. In fact, if you want to see the natural world in its most raw and untouched state, there is no better place on the planet.
