This was filmed in late November

The big ones could be around 40 or 50 years old

Well come to bharat

That's such a difficult question! They're both surprisingly different. I like the landscape in the Serengeti more and the fact that there's a lot less cars at each sighting - one thing that bothers me about the Masai Mara is the fact that so many cars go off-road and get way too close to the animals. But I've had some of my best ever sightings in the Masai Mara and I love how the guides know the animals and their territories so well. They both have their pros and cons and I honestly love them both! What I would say though is unless you're visiting for 2 weeks or more, it isn't worth visiting both of them as the journey between them is too big.

This was in late November 2023

Thank you for watching!

@@EllaMcKendrick are you from

I visited in late-November

It's my favourite continent 🫶

Yes, the cost of the vehicle + guide can be anywhere from $200 to $350 per day

Thank you for watching!

Yes I did - sorry I forgot to mention this!

First time visitors to the Serengeti often don't know anything about distances, different prices, planning their itineraries etc so this video does into detail on that. I sure wish I'd known these things before my trip - it would have made it go a lot smoother

@@EllaMcKendrick I don't mean to belabour the point, but the title somehow implies that there is some kind of 'truth' to the Serengeti that (first time) visitors aren't aware of. Nearly a warning of sorts... And what are the 5 things exactly? Or is it just clickbait? Also, it would have been useful to point out that most people do not start their Serengeti safari with a rather strenuous drive from the Masai Mara. The vast majority start from inside Tanzania in Arusha / Kilimanjaro and the roads are excellent and the transfer can be quite enjoyable. I understand you did your trip a certain way and your videos need to reflect that but if anyone wants to visit the Serengeti I would always recommend they start from within Tanzania. So, you really didn't know any of these things you describe before your first trip? You obviously don't owe me an explanation personally, but I was just surprised to see some of these things from someone who acts as an expert giving advice on the matter.

Perhaps you know a lot about the Serengeti but many first-time visitors don't know about the different park fees or how vast the park is, driving times, transfer fees etc. This video is designed to help those people have a smooth trip to the Serengeti. Flying is an option but it's outside most people's budget range and isn't straightforward either as unless you charter a plane (very expensive option) you can't fly directly from the Mara to the Serengeti. You have to take 2 flights (Mara to Migori and then Tarime to Seronera or Kogatende in Serengeti) and drive 30 minutes between the different airports in between the flights. I also am not getting the same prices as you with the flights. Each flight is ~$300 per person so ~$600 per person to fly from the Mara to the Serengeti as you need to take 2 flights. This is much more expensive than driving which costs $350 at the high end (car and driver included in that price).

@@EllaMcKendrick nowadays there's a magic tool that nevertheless too many people forget to use. It's called: GOOGLE. Why waste 20 minutes watching a video instead of 5 seconds of a google search, that is the real question.

Tanzania is such an incredible country 🫶
