Boutique, fully licensed safari company · Locally based in Arusha, Tanzania
Signature experience · Serengeti
Over a million wildebeest and zebra circle the Serengeti all year. We plan your dates and camps around where the herds are likely to be.
The experience
The Great Migration never stops. The herds move in a loop around the Serengeti ecosystem, following the rains and fresh grass, with predators close behind.
There is no single “migration season” — each part of the year has its own highlight. Tell us when you can travel and we’ll place you in the right part of the Serengeti, in your own private 4×4 with your guide.
Calving season: thousands of calves are born on the short-grass plains, drawing lions, cheetahs and hyenas.
The long rains. The herds start moving north and west; the park is green and very quiet.
The herds gather near the Grumeti River for the first crossings.
The famous Mara River crossings — the most dramatic, and most popular, time to go.
The short rains begin and the herds stream back towards the southern plains.
It depends on what you want to see: the calving season in the south from December to March, or the river crossings in the north from July to October.
No one can — the herds decide when to cross. Our guides know where to wait, and staying more nights in the north gives you the best chance.
