Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
BEST TIME TO VISIT
The Best Time to Visit Serengeti depends on your interests. The dry season, from June to October, is ideal for wildlife viewing, as animals gather around waterholes, making them easier to spot. The Great Migration peaks around July to September, with thrilling river crossings.
However, the wet season, from November to May, brings lush landscapes and fewer crowds, although some areas may be harder to access due to rains. For those looking to experience the full drama of the Great Migration, timing your visit to coincide with the wildebeests’ river crossings is highly recommended.
