Frequently Asked Questions About Our Excursions

What is the Great Migration?

The Great Migration is the annual movement of over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles across the Serengeti in Tanzania and the Maasai Mara in Kenya, following rainfall and fresh grazing.

When is the best time to see the Great Migration?

The migration happens year-round. River crossings are most common from July to October, while January to March is calving season in southern Serengeti.

Where is the best place to see the Great Migration?

The best locations are Serengeti National Park (Tanzania) and Maasai Mara National Reserve (Kenya), depending on the season.

Can I combine the Great Migration with other safari experiences?

Absolutely. It’s often combined with Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, gorilla trekking, or Zanzibar beach extensions.
