2 travelers on Start dateSerengeti National Park
After breakfast, you will depart towards the Serengeti National Park. Depending on the time of the year, you might even have the chance to witness the great migration with a hundred thousand wildebeests, zebras and Thompson gazelles. During the small rainy season in October and November, you will typically see these herds moving from the Kenyan Masai Mara through the northwest of the Serengeti to the plains in the south. After the great rainy season in April, May and June, the herds slowly travel back through the western and north-western parts of the Serengeti. With fluctuations in rainfall, this timetable can of course change, your guide will try his utmost to find the animals and will make sure that you can see them from the best spot in the national park. Naturally, the migration also attracts predators and with luck, you might see a kill in action. You will spend the night at the recommended campsite.
