The Great Wildebeest Migration is one of the most spectacular wildlife events in the world, where millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores migrate in search of greener pastures. The timing of the migration can vary slightly from year to year due to factors like rainfall patterns, but generally, the best time to witness the migration in Tanzania with Tanzania Safari Source Tours is:
- January to March: During this time, the herds are typically in the southern Serengeti, calving season takes place, and you can witness thousands of wildebeest giving birth to their young. This period offers excellent opportunities for seeing predator action as well.
- April to June: The herds start moving northwards, usually crossing the Seronera area and western corridor towards the Grumeti River. This is a less crowded time to witness the migration and offers good chances to see river crossings with crocodiles waiting in ambush.
- July to September: This is the peak season for the Great Migration in Tanzania. The herds gather in the northern Serengeti and make dramatic river crossings across the Mara River into Kenya’s Masai Mara Reserve. Witnessing these crossings is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
- October to December: The herds start to move southwards again, often crossing back into the Serengeti from the Masai Mara. This period offers opportunities to see the migration in the northern Serengeti and the Lobo area.
