6 Days Great Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari
Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Tracking Safari is a display of natural wonders with over two million wildebeests, zebras, and antelope travelling over 450 miles across the plain to ensure their survival, unaware that there’s the danger presented by the stalking lions and cheetahs among other predators of the wildlife. Witness huge crocodiles of the Mara River as they wait for the herbivorous to cross the swollen Mara River and enter into the Maasai Mara Game Reserve from Serengeti National Park. The wildebeest migration river crossing in August moves north, passing through the Lobo area (north of Central Serengeti National Park) and the Wagakuria area (remote northern Serengeti National Park along the Mara River) en route to Kenya’s Maasai Mara Game Reserve.
