10 Days Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari

10 Days Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari Fly in Drive Out

10 days Serengeti wildebeest Migration safari fly dive is a classical adventure to one of the most celebrated wildlife conservancies in Africa particularly in the wildlife extravaganza. Tanzania host the second largest terrestrial mammal migration, The Great Wildebeest Migration which is one of the 7 natural wonders in Africa and one of the 10 natural wonders in the world at large. The wildebeest migration climax is during the River crossing where mammal grazers try to cross the crocodile-infested river, lying underwater in a long wait to catch their prey. The wildebeest migration river crossing in August moves north, passing through the Lobo area (north of Central Serengeti National Park) and the Wagakuria area (remote northern Serengeti National Park along the Mara River) en-route to Kenya’s Masai Mara Game Reserve.

Detailed Day by Day Itinerary – 10 Days Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari

DAY 01: ARRIVAL

Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, your guide will meet you and facilitate transfer to your hotel.

Meal Plan: Dinner

DAY 02: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

After breakfast, transfer to Arusha airstrip for your flight to Serengeti North which will depart around 7 am and arrive at 10 am for a game drive in Northern Mara. Serengeti, among other incredible wildlife and stunning views, is famed for the annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and hundred thousands of zebras, a frenzied bout of territorial conquests and mating happening from July-October. Witness an actual survival of the fittest as these animals plunge through crocodile-infested waters. The wildebeest produces more than 8,000 calves daily before the 1,000 km (600 miles) pilgrimage begins again.

Meal Plan: All meals included

DAY 03 & 04: SERENGETI NORTH (Kogatende)

After early morning breakfast, you depart for Serengeti North for a game drive viewing the great migration. River crossings at Kogatende start in August as the mega herd settles into the area. Between August- October, game viewing is at its best with river crossings pretty much guaranteed every day. There is no distinct movement as the herds tend to cross back and forth over the river, following the rains and subsequent fresh grasses.

Meal Plan: All meals included

DAY 05, 06 & 07: SERENGETI CENTRAL (Central Seronera)

After breakfast at the camp, we drive to Serengeti central, Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park and a world heritage site where you will spend more two days of your safari. The Serengeti is famed for its annual migration, when some six million hooves pound the open plains, as more than 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelle join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing. Yet even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers an amazing game-viewing in Africa: great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephant and giraffe, and thousands of eland, topi, kongoni, impala, and Grant’s gazelle.

Meal Plan: All meals included

DAY 08: NGORONGORO CRATER TOUR

Ngorongoro Conservation Area
