The Great Migration
THROUGH THE YEAR
More than 2 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles follow the rains across the Serengeti ecosystem in search of fresh grazing. Because the migration responds to nature rather than a fixed schedule, every season offers a different perspective — and a different experience.
Understanding the Migration
The Great Migration is not a single event or a one-time river crossing. Throughout the year, the herds move across the Serengeti in response to rainfall and fresh grazing. While the exact timing changes from year to year, our experienced guides follow these movements closely to help you witness the migration at its best.
Our guides read the land, the wildlife, and the seasons, so you can be in the right place at the right time.
Following the Migration
The herds move in a continuous cycle throughout the year.
