Wildebeest migration safaris — time it right.

The Serengeti's wildebeest migration is the largest mammal migration on Earth — 1.5 million wildebeest, 200,000 zebra and 350,000 gazelle moving in a year-round clockwise rotation through the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem. Our migration safari catalog is purpose-built around the year's three peak phases: the Mara River crossings in the northern Serengeti from July to October (when herds throw themselves into crocodile-filled rivers to reach new grass), the southern Serengeti calving season at Ndutu from December to March (when 8,000 wildebeest calves are born per day and predator action peaks), and the photography-led migration safaris that put serious wildlife photographers in single-row vehicles with beanbag mounts and a professional photo guide. Mid-range to premium tented camps throughout, full board, certified migration guides who track herd movements daily by radio. Time your trip right and witness the single greatest wildlife spectacle on the planet.
