Our carefully crafted 8 Days Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari by road offers a remarkable opportunity to witness the iconic River Crossing. The Serengeti, together with the Masai Mara, sets the stage for one of the most awe-inspiring events in the entire animal kingdom – the wildebeest migration. Regarded as one of the greatest wildlife spectacles globally, this migration is marked by dramatic obstacles, including encounters with predators and the treacherous Mara River, home to massive crocodiles.
The wildebeest migration is a year-round phenomenon, but its most dramatic scenes unfold from February to March during calving season, attracting a plethora of predators, and from July to October during the breathtaking Mara River crossing.
