Safari summary
The Serengeti migration is a significant natural event in Tanzania, involving hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and other animals. The migration, which covers over 1,000 miles, begins in December and continues northwards in search of food and water. The journey is challenging, requiring crossing rivers, traversing dense forests, and enduring extreme heat and cold. The highlight of the migration is crossing the Mara River, which separates the Serengeti from Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. The best time to visit is during the dry season, as the wildlife is more concentrated around water sources and the weather is cooler and drier.
However, a sight worth seeing is our popular 8-day Great Serengeti Migration Tanzania Safari, which crosses the Mara River between Tanzania and the Kenyan border. With an 8-day Great Serengeti Migration Tanzania Safari tour from Macpace Tours & Safaris, you may experience a once-in-a-lifetime river crossing journey to the Mara River for the breathtaking migration crossing. Let us personalize your tour and create an itinerary based on your needs and time frame.
