Safari summary
This 7-Day Serengeti Migration Safari package has been designed specifically to focus on and increase your chance of seeing the great Serengeti Wildebeest Migration. We have designed the itinerary to include both the Lobo area (area north of the central Serengeti National Park) and the Wagakuria area (remote northern Serengeti National Park), where the majority of the wildebeest migration can normally be found from August to October. To save on unnecessary travel time and to increase your game viewing time, this itinerary has been designed so that you fly back from the Serengeti National Park to Arusha town. The itinerary also includes a visit to the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater.

Itinerary
Arrival in Arusha
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you'll be greeted by a senior safari guide who will drive you to the hotel in Arusha for dinner and an overnight stay. Arusha is a city in northern Tanzania and the capital of the Arusha Region, with a population of 416,442 plus 323,198 in the surrounding Arusha District. Located below Mount Meru on the eastern edge of the eastern branch of the Great Rift Valley, Arusha has a temperate climate.
Meal: B,D Accommodation: Kibo Palace Hotel
Arusha to Ngorongoro
After breakfast, you’ll depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You’ll arrive just in time for lunch at the lodge, and then we’ll descend over 600 meters to the crater to view the wildlife in it. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro National Park supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants.
Accommodation: Karatu Acacia Farm Lodge
Ngorongoro to Central Serengeti
After breakfast, we’ll head towards the heart of wild Africa, the Serengeti National Park, with its endless plains rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. We’ll proceed to the Lobo area, which is located just north of the Seronera area (central Serengeti National Park). The wildebeest migration normally passes through the Lobo area every year around July or August route to Kenya’s Masai Mara Game Reserve and again in late October or November to the southern Serengeti National Park.
Accommodation: Serengeti Acacia Camp
Serengeti (Serena Area)
After breakfast, enjoy a full day game drive in the park. The area around Lobo and the Grumeti River has good resident game throughout the year. Non-migrating animals like elephant, buffalo, gazelle, zebra, lion, leopard and cheetah can be seen here all year round. The game viewing is very good and you can follow game for long periods without seeing other vehicles – truly one of the forgotten corners of the Serengeti Plains.
Accommodation: Serengeti Acacia Camp
Northern Serengeti
After breakfast, we head towards the far northern reach of the Serengeti National Park, also known as the Wagakuria. We will do a game drive en-route from the Lobo area to the Wagakuria area. As we head north, good sightings of giraffe, plain game, herds of buffalo and elephants can often be seen. We arrive in time for lunch at the lodge and after lunch will we enjoy an afternoon game drive in the area.
Accommodation: Serengeti Acacia Camp
Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
After breakfast, enjoy a full day game drive in the Wagakuria area. Resident wildlife numbers are exceptionally high in this area of the park, with prides of lion up to 30 strong, however, from August to October the area turns into a wildlife paradise. The key feature is the Mara River and it is not uncommon to see the herds cross the Mara River north on one day and then back south a few days later. Please take note –Finding a crossing is very difficult and is sometimes a matter of luck.
Accommodation: Serengeti Acacia Camp
Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
After breakfast at the camp, we depart for Kogatende Airstrip and enjoy a game drive en route. The group should tip the guide around $20 to $30 a day. Around mid-morning, join a scheduled flight from Kogatende airstrip to Arusha airport. Upon arrival at Arusha airport, meet our driver, who’ll drive you to Arusha town. Upon arrival, we will have our lunch, and then we will end our African safari adventure. You will be taken to your hotel, which ends our safari services.
