Great Migration July - October

Safari summary

A 6-day 5-night Serengeti migration safari from July to October is an incredible adventure. The Serengeti National Park in Tanzania is host to the Great Migration, the largest movement of land animals on the planet. During these months, over 1.5 million wildebeest, along with zebras, gazelles, and other animals, make their annual trek from the southern Serengeti to the Masai Mara in Kenya, and back again.

This remarkable 6-Day Great Serengeti Migration Safari is tailored to enhance your chances of witnessing the awe-inspiring Northern Serengeti Wildebeest Migration, including the iconic Mara River crossing and the renowned Ngorongoro Crater. Our meticulously crafted itinerary encompasses both the Lobo area, situated north of the central Serengeti National Park, and the remote Wagakuri area in the northern Serengeti National Park, where the majority of the wildebeest migration occurs from mid-July to October. Designed for convenience, this itinerary allows you to drive into and back from the Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro, and ultimately return to Arusha town. Additionally, the adventure includes an exploration of the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater.

From mid-July to October, witness the Migration's northern journey as it departs the central Serengeti, splitting into two routes. The main group ventures into the Western corridor, creating spectacular stampedes while crossing the Grumeti River. Enormous crocodiles patiently await, ready to seize wildebeests as they surge across the river. The migration continues steadily through the Grumeti region, undertaking another perilous river crossing at the Mara River, ultimately reaching the lush grazing lands in Kenya's Masai Mara.
