When to See the Great Migration on This Route
Every Great Migration itinerary is built around migration’s seasonal movements. Depending on typical migration routes, we will adjust your wildlife safari in Tanzania.
Migration Actions (June - October)
This is the dry season, or peak season, for the wildebeest migration from the Northern Serengeti in Tanzania to Kenya’s Masai Mara Reserve and towards the Southern Serengeti region.
Calving Season (January - March)
This is the shoulder season or calving season for the wildebeest migration, when the migration herds reach Southern Tanzania’s Ndutu region and prepare to move forward to the north.
