December to March, iMany herds are likely to be in the southern and northern Serengeti, particularly in a region known as Ndutu, where they go for calving, but others may be spread in the naabi, Olduvai, and gol areas of the south Serengeti and north Ngorongoro.

April – July, Herds will begin migrating from the south Serengeti to the middle Serengeti (seronera) in late March, where they will stay until late May, when they will begin migrating to Kirawira and Grumeti (western Serengeti). From mid-June to July, they will be expected to cross the Grumeti River.

July – September, Herds are likely to relocate to northern Serengeti habitats (kogatende, lobo) starting in July, with some herds crossing the Mara River and into Masai Mara. This is predicted to last until early October.

October – November, The remaining herds are expected to be in Masai Mara by this time, where they will graze until November, when they will return to Serengeti.

Why a Serengeti wildebeest migration tour package

better odds of sighting predators and probable witnessing them in action predators do not migrate, but when migration crosses their territory, predators will be on the lookout for these animals and will feed on them.

A high number of animals

If you want to view a lot of animals in a small region, you should go on a migration trip. Because the Serengeti is so big, if you take a tour that focuses on the middle Serengeti and the migration is in the north Serengeti, you’ll see a lot more animals.

Excellent knowledge of migration
If you want to understand more about migration, you should sign up for a migration tour. Other trips may occasionally cross paths with the migration, but they will not focus on it.

Safari for photographers

If you’re interested in taking a photography trip, choose one that includes the migration; you’ll get better and more strange photographs and movies.
