5 Days Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Safari

Tour Overview

Regarded as one of the greatest wildlife spectacles in the world, Serengeti’s annual wildebeest migration is by far one of the most amazing safari experiences one should have the pleasure of experiencing at least once in their lifetime. With the mega-herds of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope spending more than 80% of their time on the endless plains of the majestic Serengeti National Park, it’s no wonder this park is one of the most popular national parks in the world.

However, even when the migration has moved on to the Maasai Mara, Serengeti National Park still offers what some have considered the most scintillating wildlife safari experiences in Africa. The migration safaris provide you with the best chances of exploring this wildlife haven and witnessing the longest and largest overland migration in the world and one of the 7 natural wonders of Africa.

A minimum of 4 days to see the migration is recommended and the itineraries usually include visits to other national parks which provides for a more enriching experience. The best time to experience the migration safari is from November to August with April and May being the optimum time.
