What do you need to consider?

Green Season The vast herds of migratory wildebeest make their return to the short-grass plains of the southern Serengeti. Roughly 500,000 of these wildebeest are pregnant females, ready to drop their calves between late January and early March. You will have the exclusive opportunity to stay in a private camp located right in the heart of the southern plains, and with some luck, you will have a front row seat to this amazing spectacle. This safari also visits the central Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and the award-winning Gibb’s Farm.

Dry Season This dry season safari focuses on the world famous Ngorongoro Crater, as well as both the central and northern Serengeti. The crater and central Serengeti hold immense numbers of resident wildlife, and the northern Serengeti’s Kogakuria/Lamai Wedge will be brimming with migratory activity, as nearly two million grazers arrive in search of green pasture. It is at this time of year when travelers have the best chances of photographing the famed Mara River crossings.

Depending on the season’:
July–Oct → Northern Serengeti (Mara River crossings).
Dec–Mar → Southern Serengeti (calving season).
Apr–Jun → Western Corridor (Grumeti River crossings).
Exceptional predator action (lion, cheetah, leopard) following the herds.
Add on activities are Optional - Optional hot-air balloon safari at dawn with champagne bush breakfast.
