Safari summary

The great wildebeest migration Safari: 5 Days of Serengeti migration
The Great Wildebeest Migration is a clockwise migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest, 250,000 zebras, and 300,000 Thomson's gazelles across the Serengeti National Park and surrounding reserves in Tanzania and Kenya. The migration is driven by the availability of food and water. The wildebeest and zebras start their journey in the southern Serengeti in May or June, when the long rains start. They move north to the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya, where the grass is lush and green. In November or December, when the dry season begins, the animals start to move south again. They follow the rains, which bring new grass to the southern part of the park.

Ngorongoro Crater | Serengeti

Continue your game drives in the Serengeti, looking for the wildebeest migration. The wildebeest migration is one of the most incredible natural wonders in the world. Every year, millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other animals migrate across the Serengeti in search of fresh grazing. When you are game driving, it is important to be patient and keep your eyes open. The wildebeest herds can be very difficult to spot, especially if they are in the tall grass.

Drive to Mara river

Ngorongoro Crater | Serengeti

On the third day of your safari, you will drive to the Mara River, where the wildebeest cross during their migration. This is a time of great excitement and drama, as the animals must swim across the river to reach new grazing grounds. Many wildebeest are killed by crocodiles or drown during the crossing. However, the wildebeest are driven by instinct to cross the river, and they will often attempt to cross even if the river is full of crocodiles.
