8-Days Great Migration Tour - Mara River Crossing

Our guide will pick you up at Kilimanjaro (or Arusha) International Airport and transfer you to your hotel in Arusha for your overnight stay. You may opt to experience a tour of Arusha city with our guide (no cost). Be sure to rest in preparation for your safari tomorrow!

Today you'll be picked up from the lodge early in the morning to start a beautiful journey to Tarangire National Park. You will carry a boxed lunch to eat along the way.

Tarangire is well known for its large elephant herds and diverse landscapes, from seasonal swamps to savannah plains. We may have the experience of watching a lion stalking her prey or leopards relaxing in the trees above. After the game drive you’ll make your way to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.

After breakfast, you will make your way into the central Serengeti for a game drive. You’ll eat lunch inside the park and continue your game drive into the afternoon before reaching your camp.

The Serengeti is known for its great migrating herds of zebra, antelope, and wildebeest. Be ready to see resident predators, including leopard, cheetah, and lion, fulfilling their role in the circle of life!

After an early breakfast, you’ll make your way to the northern Serengeti and the Mara River to see the Great Migration. Our safari guide will be sure to find the best spot.

The Great Migration is the largest herd movement of wildebeests, zebra, and other animals crossing the Mara River to the Masai Mara in Kenya. The best time to visit is from July to early October every year.

This park consists of the largest, uninterrupted caldera in the world and one of the natural wonders of Africa. About 30,000 large mammals reside here year-round, including buffaloes, lions, elephants, cheetahs, and rhinos. A large variety of birds also all the crater home.
