Tour Details
This tour takes you to Serengeti to witness the Great Migration. Over 2 million Wildebeest, Zebra and Gazelles move through the Serengeti and Masai Mara ecosystem in search of green pastures and safe calving ground. The biggest chance to see river crossing in the Serengeti is around July and August when the wildebeest migrate from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Masai Mara in Kenya or around September and October when they cross the way around. Mid July marks the possible start of the start of the Masai Mara River crossing as well as mating season in the Serengeti. It is the time of the year when wildebeest herds begin moving faster towards the northern parts of the Serengeti in search of water and greener grass; making their way across the Grumeti and Mara River.
