Tour Details, Itinerary and More Tips

Experience one of Africa’s greatest wildlife adventures on this 6 Days Serengeti Migration Safari. This private Tanzania safari is designed to follow the seasonal movement of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles across the Serengeti ecosystem while also visiting Tarangire National Park and the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater. Depending on your travel dates, the safari may focus on Ndutu and the Southern Serengeti, the Central Serengeti, the Western Corridor or the Northern Serengeti near the Mara River. Each region offers a different stage of the Great Wildebeest Migration. Travel in a private 4x4 safari vehicle with a professional guide while searching for lions, cheetahs, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, hippos and large herds of plains animals. The safari is suitable for couples, families, honeymooners, photographers and private groups. The Great Migration is a natural event influenced by rainfall, water and grazing conditions, so exact wildlife locations and river crossings cannot be guaranteed.
