This ten-day great migration safari offers an exceptional opportunity to witness and experience the largest wildlife migration on the planet. Millions of animals move in perfect harmony across the vast plains of Central to Northern Serengeti National Park, traveling through the Western Corridor between June and October in search of greener pastures and water during the dry season. The wildebeest herds push forward to the dangerous Grumeti River, home to giant Nile crocodiles, before continuing into the Maasai Mara Game Reserve in Kenya—an extension of the Serengeti ecosystem—before making their way back through the northeast and down to the southern Ndutu plains and Ngorongoro for the calving season from late January to early March. This extraordinary circular movement involves more than two million wildebeests and zebras, together with hundreds of thousands of other ungulates, all accompanied by fearless predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas that follow the herds closely. Throughout this journey, guests stay in mid-range luxury tented camps strategically located along the migration routes, ensuring unmatched comfort and immersive wildlife viewing that will make you fall in love with Tanzania.
