Witness nature's greatest spectacle on this immersive Serengeti safari

Get up close and personal with the great wildebeest migration and stay in comfortable tented camps in the remote and uncrowded wilderness

Every year, millions of wildebeest and zebras thunder across the vast Serengeti plains on the hunt for fresh water and grazing...as they say, the grass is always greener! Seeing this mesmerizing movement of Africa's iconic animals, followed closely by their predators, is a breathtaking experience.

The herds are constantly on the move between the southern and northern Serengeti plains, and their location throughout the year can generally be predicted very accurately. This means that your chances of witnessing this incredible natural spectacle on a tailor made Serengeti migration safari are very high indeed.

One of the joys of this unique Serengeti migration safari is being totally immersed in the pristine wilderness of the most famous national parks in Africa, and exploring the more remote corners where you'll encounter few other visitors.

This is an active eco-safari holiday with a difference, staying in a wonderful mixture of high end luxury lodges, and close-to-nature tented Green Camps.

January

January is mixed when it comes to weather, temperatures rise whilst the chance of rain and humidity increases. It is still a good time to go, as the rates are lower yet the game viewing is still excellent.

  • During this time migratory herds are in the Serengeti for calving season, meaning the Ndutu plains are busy.
Expand

February

The weather remains hot with a chance of rain in February.

  • Meanwhile in the Ndutu Plains the migration is still occurring.
Expand

March is the calm before the storm, before heavy rains and humidity builds. Visitors can take great advantage of lower rates during the low season.

  • Migrating herds start to leave Ndutu, heading West towards Grumeti.
Expand

April

April experiences continued periods of heavy rain, we would advise against travel due to the conditions.

Expand

May

During may there is periods of heavy rain, we would advise against travel due to the conditions.

June

June heralds the wet season, bringing lush green vegetation which can make spotting game more difficult. It is a particularly great time for birders as parks become populated by migratory birds especially in the South.

  • Migration is still in the Grumeti area, heading north.
Expand

July

July is the start of peak season, temperatures reach up to 30 degrees and the surrounding land becomes drier and spotting game is becoming easier.

  • The migration is in the Northern Serengeti moving towards Kenya.
Expand

August

August is peak season, with bush land drying out game spotting becomes much easier. If you want to experience Tanzania game at its best, August is the time to travel.

  • The migration still remains in the north.
Expand

September

Peak season continues in September, the Northern circuit can be very busy, if you want to avoid crowds it's best to visit the southern parks.

  • The end of the migration is still in the north with herds on both side of the Kenyan and Tanzanian borders.
Expand

October

Peak season continues into October with good game viewing in the Serengeti and southern parks.

  • The migration has now crossed over into Kenya.
Expand

November

November is the start of the rainy season, the rains tend to be overnight so it is still a popular time to travel. During this month you can take advantage of low season rates.

  • Migration crossing over into the Serengeti can be seen a the Tanzania and Kenya border.
Expand

Rains continue in December, whilst the temperature and humidity start to build. Venturing out on safari is generally good, with large game still easily spotted.
