5 DAYS SERENGETI WILDEBEEST MIGRATION SAFARI| TANZANIA SAFARI 2026

This 5-Day Great Serengeti Migration Safari package was made to focus on the Great Serengeti Wildebeest Migration and increase your chances of seeing it. With the choice to drive in and fly out. We planned the trip to include both the Lobo area (which is north of the central Serengeti National Park) and the Wagakuria area (which is in the far north of the Serengeti National Park), which is where most of the wildebeest migration happens from the middle of July to the end of October. This plan has you drive or fly back to Arusha town from the Serengeti National Park so you don't waste time traveling and can spend more time seeing animals. The famous Ngorongoro Crater is also on the list of places to see.

From the middle of July to the end of October, the migration splits into two paths and heads north from the center of the Serengeti. The main group rushes across the Grumeti River and heads into the western corridor. Huge crocodiles lie in wait for wildebeests to run across the river so they can grab them. The wildebeest keep moving steadily through the Grumeti region. They have to cross another dangerous river to get to the Masai Mara in Kenya, where there is plenty of grass to eat. 0.

From mid-July to October, the migration splits into two paths as it travels north from the central Serengeti. The majority of the herd stampedes across the Grumeti River to enter the western route.

Many people say that they can smell the rain, others believe they can sense when the pressure in the air changes. The only thing we know for sure is that where it rains, the herds follow. Within a two to three-week time period, over half a million wildebeest are born with as many as 8 000 wildebeest being born on the same day!
