Migration Safari Packages 

The Great Wildebeest Migration is a year-round, cyclical journey of over 1.5 million wildebeest, plus hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, moving between Tanzania's Serengeti National Park and Kenya's Maasai Mara National Reserve in search of fresh grazing.

Starting in the south during the annual calving season (January–March), the massive herds slowly track north, consolidating into vast columns. The trek reaches its dramatic climax during the dry season (July–October) when the animals must face the treacherous, crocodile-infested waters of the Mara River, repeatedly crossing between the two countries in a desperate struggle for survival. Finally, guided by the short rains, the herds turn south again in November and December to complete the cycle and return to the nutrient-rich plains of the south for the next calving season
