The Great Migration is the heartbeat of East Africa—a breathtaking, continuous movement of over two million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles across the Serengeti and Masai Mara. It’s a natural drama of life, survival, and instinct, set against some of Africa’s most majestic landscapes. Few wildlife events on earth match its scale, intensity, and emotional impact.
The Great Migration is an annual cycle driven by rainfall and fresh grazing. The herds move in a massive circuit through Tanzania’s Serengeti and Kenya’s Masai Mara, traveling hundreds of kilometers in search of new pastures. Along the way, they face predators, dramatic river crossings, and seasonal challenges. Travelers witness this spectacle through guided game drives, hot-air balloon flights, and strategic stays in migration-focused camps.
Expect unforgettable encounters as the plains come alive with movement, dust, and thunderous hooves. In Tanzania, experience the calving season where thousands of newborns take their first steps—and predators lurk nearby. Follow the herds through endless Serengeti plains as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas take advantage of the abundance of prey.
In Kenya, witness the world-famous Mara River crossings, where wildebeests leap into crocodile-filled waters in a powerful display of instinct and courage. The energy is electric, emotional, and profoundly humbling. Every day brings a different scene: dramatic hunts, tender moments between mothers and calves, and sweeping views of wildebeest stretching to the horizon.
The Great Migration is active year-round, but key highlights include:
January – March (Tanzania): Calving season in southern Serengeti
April – June (Tanzania): Herds move through central & western Serengeti
July – October (Kenya & Tanzania): Mara River crossings (Serengeti–Masai Mara)
November – December (Tanzania): Herds return south as the cycle restarts
