Safari summary
November to February is a major moving month, as migration herds head through Serengeti towards southern short plains grass. This is the best time to witness the Great Migration, where the first herds will be reaching central Serengeti around Seronera and more likely in the Ndutu Area, south of Serengeti.
Explore the ultimate 4-day safari in Tarangire, central Serengeti, and tour in Ngorongoro Crater.
Tarangire National Park is your destination for a full-day adventure filled with captivating wildlife species accompanied with large herds of elephants and ancient baobab trees that dot the landscape.
South Serengeti is a prime location where you can spot the Great Migration during this time. Herds of wildebeest and other antelopes migrate to the south Serengeti Ndutu plains for calving season in December.
Ngorongoro Crater is home to abundant wildlife residing on its floors, including the ‘Big Five’, which offers an immersive experience to travellers.
On your tour you will be accompanied by a driver guide to enhance your memorable experience. Enjoy game drives in a safari custom jeep with a pop-up roof.
