Is June a good time for a 6-day June safari in Serengeti Migration?
June is an excellent month as the rains have ended and the weather is cool and clear. This 6-day June safari provides a great chance to see the migration in the Western Corridor. The vegetation is still green in some areas but the grass is thinning, making wildlife spotting easier.
What is the Great Migration doing in June?
In June, the wildebeest and zebras are moving through the Central Serengeti toward the Western Corridor. They often gather near the Grumeti River. You will see massive herds stretching across the golden savannah in a spectacular display of movement.
What is the weather like during a 6-day June safari?
June is the beginning of the cool dry season. The days are sunny and pleasant, but the early mornings and nights can be very cold. We recommend bringing warm layers to stay comfortable during your dawn game drives in the open vehicles.
Will I see the Big Five in June?
Yes, all of the Big Five are active and very visible in June. You will see many elephants in Tarangire and lions in the Serengeti. The Ngorongoro Crater remains the most reliable place to see the rare black rhino in its natural habitat.
Is it crowded during the 6-day June safari in Serengeti Migration?
June is the start of the peak season, so the parks are getting busier. However, it is not as crowded as July or August. Our guides know the best routes to provide a private and exciting wildlife experience. Booking in advance is recommended.
What should I pack for a June safari?
Pack warm clothing for the early mornings and light, breathable layers for the day. A warm jacket and a hat are essential for the cool air. Don't forget high quality binoculars and a good camera to capture the migration and the Big Five.
How long are the drives between the parks?
Driving times range from 2.5 to 6 hours, and these are often combined with game viewing. You will see many animals along the way as you move between the parks. The vehicles are comfortable and built for the rugged terrain.
Are the roads dusty in June?
As the land dries out, the roads can start to get dusty. Our vehicles are designed to handle these conditions and we ensure a safe and steady journey. Your driver will make the trip as comfortable as possible while you enjoy the scenery.
Can I see river crossings in June?
While the most famous crossings happen in the north in July and August, the Western Corridor has crossings at the Grumeti River in June. These are smaller but very dramatic as crocodiles wait for the herds. It is a powerful sight to behold.
Is birdwatching good during this month?
While many migratory birds have left, June is still great for birding. You will see many resident species like eagles, owls, and colorful rollers. The clear skies and thinning vegetation make it easy to spot birds in the trees.
