Best Time for a Serengeti Safari
The Serengeti can be visited throughout the year, with different seasons offering different safari experiences.
The dry season generally provides excellent wildlife viewing as animals gather around available water sources and vegetation becomes less dense.
The green season offers beautiful scenery, fewer visitors in some areas and excellent opportunities for birdwatching and photography.
If you are interested in the Great Migration, the best area and time to visit depends on the movement of the wildebeest herds.
Our safari team can help you choose the best travel dates based on your interests and itinerary.
The Great Migration
The Serengeti is internationally famous for the Great Migration, one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife events.
Millions of wildebeest, together with large numbers of zebras and other animals, move through the Serengeti ecosystem in search of fresh grazing and water.
The exact location of the herds changes throughout the year, so migration sightings cannot be guaranteed on a specific date.
If seeing the migration is your main goal, we can help you plan your safari around the likely location of the herds during your travel period.
