Best Time to Visit The Great Migration can be seen throughout the year, but the timing of your visit will determine what part of the migration you witness. The migration starts in the Serengeti in January and moves towards the Masai Mara in Kenya by July. From January to March, the herds gather in the southern Serengeti. This is the calving season, and you can see many newborns. April to June sees the herds moving northwards through the central Serengeti. July to October is the time to witness the dramatic river crossings at the Grumeti and Mara rivers. These crossings are dangerous for the animals but thrilling for observers.

Choosing Your Safari When planning your safari, consider what part of the migration you want to see. Each phase offers different experiences. If you want to see the calving season, plan your trip between January and March. For those interested in the river crossings, the best time to visit is from July to October. During this period, you can witness the herds braving crocodile-infested waters. It's also important to choose a reputable tour operator. They can help you plan the best itinerary and ensure you are in the right place at the right time. Other Considerations When timing your safari, consider the weather.
