There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

To be fair, to get to the Serengeti, you'll be driving 5+ hours or so after all the flights, it's not exactly a "relaxing vacation" but that's usually not the type of vacation you go on to relax. I haven't done the Indian safari as of yet but my itinerary shows that it's a similar trek to get from Nagpur to Tadoba.
But you don't mind the drive because you're usually seeing things that are very unique to these countries and unlike anything you've seen back home.
But yes, the advantages of open plains compared to jungles is the density and variety of animals in one place. But in Tanzania there is no guarantee you'll see the big 5, black rhinos are extremely rare and tough to spot, same with leopards. We got lucky that we spotted the big 5 each day.
