OVERVIEW

Embark on a truly unforgettable wildebeest migration safari deep into Tanzania’s Western Corridor of the Serengeti, where the majestic Grumeti and Mbalageti Rivers define one of the most dramatic river crossings in Africa. This six-day journey immerses you in endless panoramic savannahs, predator‑prepared landscapes, and the raw spectacle of wildebeest, zebras, and antelopes gathering before plunging into crocodile‑teeming waters – a seasonal highlight between May and July. Experience big five sightings, prolific birdlife, and the sounds of the wild, all while staying in comfortable, eco‑sensitive accommodation designed to enhance your safari experience.
