Great Migration Serengeti Safari
Witness the greatest wildlife spectacle on Earth
Tour Overview
Every year, over two million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle undertake the most extraordinary journey on Earth — a 1,800km circular migration across the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem driven by the rains and the eternal search for fresh grazing. This 7-day safari positions you at the heart of this natural wonder, with expert guides who know exactly where the herds will be. From dramatic river crossings where crocodiles lurk beneath churning waters, to vast plains teeming with hundreds of thousands of animals as far as the eye can see, the Great Migration is nature at its most raw and magnificent. Between the spectacle, you'll encounter lion prides, cheetah hunts, elephant herds, and the incomparable Serengeti landscapes that inspired "The Lion King." This is the safari of a lifetime.
Day-by-Day Itinerary
Arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport and transfer to a luxury lodge in Arusha with views of Mount Meru. Meet your safari director for a welcome dinner briefing on the migration's current position and what to expect. Rest well — tomorrow the adventure begins.
