You will wake up early in the morning and enjoy a full breakfast before starting your game drive inside the Serengeti. We will ensure that you follow the wildebeest migration during your time with us.

The Great Migration varies each year. The best chance of witnessing it is from June to September, while the wildebeest calving occurs from January to March. From July to September, your driver can take you to the northern Serengeti to watch the wildebeest cross the Mara River. Over a million and a half wildebeest travel throughout the year in search of fresh grazing pastures and better water sources.

After your full-day game drive, you will return to your accommodations for dinner and an overnight stay.
