Great Migration on a Kenya Tanzania Safari

The Great Migration moves between the Serengeti in Tanzania and Maasai Mara in Kenya throughout the year.

The timing and location of the herds change seasonally, so the best itinerary depends on your travel dates.

During the right period, this safari can be planned around areas where wildebeest and zebra are most likely to be found.

River crossings are spectacular but unpredictable and should never be presented as guaranteed.

Best Time for a 10-Day Kenya Tanzania Safari

June–October

A popular period for wildlife viewing because of generally dry conditions and good visibility.

July–October
