4 Days Migration safari

During May, they spread out heading to the western part of Serengeti National Park. In June, they spread out heading further west to the Grumeti river which is a channel of pools where they congregate and blocked on their trip towards the northern part. This is where the crocodiles of the Grumeti River get their feast. Each migrating animal must face the challenge of crossing the crocodile- infested river. As June moves into July, the hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra accompanied by antelopes continue to head north along the western edge of the Serengeti toward the Mara River in the north of the Serengeti. These river crossings are arguably one of the most famous wildlife events on Earth.

During late July and August, the migration  moves  far north of Serengeti National Park known as Kogatende passing through the central part of Serengeti and Grumeti reserve. Arriving on the north Serengeti, this is where the spectacular crossing happens at the mara river which goes through until September. The migration arrives at the Mara River in groups of thousands where they gather and cross. A huge number of adults and calves are lost to crocodile and predators attacks, drowned or crushed by the herd and many of the young ones are separated from their mothers.

During October, the herds move on the far north to the Masai Mara reserve.  During November, the herds move towards the south following the short grass plains through eastern part of Serengeti and this is where the migration pattern begin.
