The Great Migration Adventure
A Serengeti Great Migration Safari is one of the most powerful wildlife experiences in Africa. Every year, huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move across the Serengeti ecosystem in search of fresh grass and water. This natural movement creates unforgettable safari moments, from newborn calves on the southern plains to dramatic river crossings in Northern Serengeti.
In Tanzania, the migration can be experienced in different parts of the Serengeti depending on the season. From December to March, the herds are usually found around the Southern Serengeti and Ndutu area, where thousands of calves are born. This is one of the best times to see predator action, especially lions, cheetahs, and hyenas following the herds. From April to June, the migration moves through the central and western areas of the Serengeti as the animals follow fresh grazing. Explore our Tanzania safari itineraries to find a migration tour that matches your preferred travel dates and safari style.
