This journey places you at the frontline of one of Earth’s greatest natural spectacles the Great Wildebeest Migration. Witness more than two million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles as they navigate the Mara River, facing powerful currents and formidable crocodiles. With a professional local guide and carefully selected camps positioned in strategic migration zones, you enjoy unmatched access to dramatic river crossings, predator interactions, and breathtaking landscapes. This safari combines Northern Serengeti action with Central Serengeti big cat country, Tarangire’s elephant kingdoms, and the wildlife-rich Ngorongoro Crater all in one immersive adventure.

Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you’ll be welcomed by your safari representative and transferred to your hotel in Arusha. Spend the evening unwinding as you take in the lush surroundings and prepare for the adventure of a lifetime.
After breakfast, fly or drive into the Northern Serengeti, where the wilderness stretches endlessly toward the Mara River. This region is the heart of the Great Migration during river crossing season. Settle into camp, then head out for your first afternoon game drive in the Kogatende area.
Spend the entire day exploring the Northern Serengeti. This is where the dramatic Mara River crossings take place as thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles brave the powerful current and lurking crocodiles. Game drives take you along the riverbanks, open plains, and rocky kopjes, offering endless viewing opportunities.
Another day to immerse yourself in Northern Serengeti’s spectacular wildlife scenes. Watch vast herds roaming the plains and predators like lions, cheetahs, and hyenas stalking the movement of the migration. Each moment feels like a new chapter of a live documentary in the wild.
After breakfast, journey south toward the Seronera region of the central Serengeti. This area is known as the “big cat capital” due to its incredible population of lions, leopards, and cheetahs. Afternoon game drives introduce you to the open plains dotted with acacia trees and granite outcrops.
Explore Central Serengeti throughout the day. From river valleys to rolling grasslands, you’ll discover a thriving ecosystem filled with wildlife. Elephants, giraffes, buffalo, and countless antelope species move freely through the region. Sundowners and storytelling await back at your wilderness camp.
Another full-day adventure in the central plains gives you more chances to witness predators in action and the daily rhythm of life in the Serengeti. Your guide will choose areas based on wildlife movement to ensure the best possible sightings. Overnight at a new camp for a different experience.
This morning, enjoy a final game drive in the Serengeti before heading toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Spend the afternoon relaxing at your crater-rim camp with sweeping views over ancient volcanic landscapes.
Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater—the world’s largest unbroken caldera and home to lions, elephants, buffalo, zebras, hippos, and the rare black rhino. After lunch, continue to Tarangire, known for its giant baobabs and large elephant herds.
Start the day with a morning game drive in Tarangire. Capture final moments in the bush before returning to Arusha. You’ll be dropped off at your hotel or at the airport for your onward flight.
