Best Time to Visit

The best time for a Great Migration safari depends on the season:

• June to October (Dry Season): Ideal for river crossings in northern Serengeti (Grumeti and Mara Rivers), with herds moving north, attracting predators like lions and crocodiles. Best for July 8, 2025 (today’s date).
• January to March (Calving Season): Perfect for Ndutu’s wildebeest calving, with over 500,000 calves born, drawing cheetahs, hyenas, and leopards.
• April to May (Green Season): Lush landscapes and fewer crowds, with migration herds in southern Serengeti. This itinerary is adaptable for July 2025, focusing on northern Serengeti’s river crossings, with Ndutu offering predator-rich game viewing.

Why Choose Serengeti and Ndutu?

• Serengeti National Park: A bucket-list destination renowned for the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeests and zebras traverse vast savannahs, pursued by predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards. Its diverse ecosystems ensure year-round wildlife sightings.
• Ndutu Region: Straddling Serengeti and Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Ndutu is a migration hotspot, especially during calving season (January-March), but also offers abundant predators and Big Five sightings in July, with open plains and lakes (Ndutu and Masek) ideal for game drives.
