The Great Migration Spectacle

The Serengeti National Park Tanzania Famous Migration is a spectacle that manages to defy the imagination of every safari-goer. Every year, millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores set off on a journey across the vast plains of the Serengeti ecosystem. They are driven by the search for greener pastures and freshwater sources.

The Great Wildebeest Migration Tanzania is a year-round phenomenon, consisting of several key stages that take place across different months and regions within the Serengeti and Maasai Mara ecosystems.

• It begins with the calving season in the southern Serengeti plains from January to March, where hundreds of thousands of wildebeest give birth to their young.
• As the rains subside and the grasslands dry up, usually around May, the migration goes on its first major movement: the trek northwards towards the western corridor of the Serengeti.
• This stage of the Serengeti National Park Great Migration includes crossing crocodile-infested rivers like the Grumeti and Mara, where thousands of wildebeest and zebras risk their lives to cross to the other side.
• By the month of July, the great migration makes its way to the northern Serengeti region, where it proceeds to cross over into Kenya’s Maasai Mara Reserve, drawn by the allure of newly arrived rains and the flourishing grasslands.
• As the dry season sets in around September, the Wildebeest Crossing Serengeti herds start their journey back southwards and return to the Serengeti plains in Tanzania.

The cycle begins anew, with the endless quest for food and water driving the continuous movement of the herds across the savannah. Each year, the Tanzania Great Migration follows this timeless beat, captivating visitors with its sheer scale and drama.

The Combos

• These coastal havens are prime examples of relaxation while also serving as ideal locations for various water-based Things To Do In Tanzania like snorkelling and scuba diving.
• For those with a fondness for adventure of a different kind, Tanzania boasts an impressive array of mountains.
• At the forefront stands the iconic Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest mountain soaring to an impressive height of 5,895 meters (19,341 feet).
• Kilimanjaro’s distinction as one of the world’s Great Seven Summits places it in elite company.

All in all, the possibilities throughout Safari Vacations in Tanzania are endless, offering a wide range of experiences that cater to every traveller’s desires.
