East Africa is famous as a place of 50-mile views and immense grasslands, on which tens of thousands of grazing animals can be seen in a single glance. The region’s most celebrated landscape is that of the Serengeti — specifically its southern short-grass plains — where every January and February, the wandering herds of wildebeest converge to give birth to the next generation. Then there is the fabled Ngorongoro Crater, where more than 25,000 large mammals roam the grasslands and forests of the crater floor. For unforgettable chimpanzee sightings, head to Mahale Mountains National Park.
