Understanding the journey

What Is a Migration Safari?

A migration safari is planned around the moving herds of the Serengeti ecosystem. The existing collection includes calving-season and river-focused routes. Choose your travel window and then compare the itinerary’s Serengeti areas; the herds respond to rainfall rather than a fixed schedule.

FAQ

Migration Safaris: Questions, Answered

Talk to our team
What is a migration safari?

It is a wildlife journey focused on the Great Migration in the Serengeti ecosystem. The relevant areas change through the year, so location and timing are part of route planning.

Who is a migration safari for?

It can be a useful starting point for travellers particularly interested in the moving herds, calving or river-focused wildlife journeys. Other park visits depend on the chosen route.

When should I plan a migration safari?

Choose around the migration phase that interests you, then compare the areas visited by each route. Our general seasonal guide is a starting point; rainfall can alter herd locations and timing.

Are river crossings guaranteed?

No. Wildlife movement follows changing natural conditions. A river-focused itinerary provides a route to explore that area, not a guarantee that a crossing will happen during your visit.

How many days are the migration itineraries?

The current migration collection ranges from 7 to 9 days. Check the route and time in each area on the individual itinerary.

What should I tell the team when enquiring?

Share your travel window, party size and whether calving, moving herds or river-focused routes interest you most. Include any other parks you would like to explore.
