This 7-Day Serengeti Calving season safari, a spectacle that unfolds between January and March, is a natural wonder that must be seen to be believed. In January, the herds begin their southward migration into the Serengeti, triggered by the onset of the rainy season. How these remarkable creatures sense the rain's arrival remains a captivating mystery. Some suggest they can smell it, while others believe they perceive changes in atmospheric pressure. What we can confirm is that wherever the rain falls, the herds instinctively follow.
Throughout just 2 to 3 weeks, more than half a million wildebeest calves are born, with astonishingly as many as 8,000 being born in a single day. It's a breathtaking spectacle of nature's grandeur that leaves a lasting impression on every observer.
