Tanzania Safari FAQs
The Serengeti Migration is the annual movement of over a million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles across the Serengeti ecosystem in search of fresh grazing. It is one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife events and offers exceptional viewing opportunities.
During this itinerary, you will explore the Northern Serengeti around Kogatende, one of the prime areas for witnessing the Great Migration. This area offers the best chances to see wildebeest river crossings, large predator activity, and expansive herds in a less crowded, exclusive setting.
The best time depends on the migration’s movement:
June to October: Northern Serengeti and Mara River crossings
December to March: Southern Serengeti calving season
April to May: Western Serengeti (river and rainy season movements)
Yes, absolutely. You can see the Great Migration river crossings in the Northern Serengeti, particularly the dramatic Mara River crossings from late July.
