The famous plains are interspersed with wooded hills, towering termite mounds and monumental rock kopje and rivers lined with elegant acacia trees. The vast Serengeti is one of the most stunning wildlife sanctuaries on the planet. The name comes from the Maasai "Siringet" referring to endless plains.
