Best Time to Visit the Great Migration

The Great Migration happens throughout the year. However, different seasons offer different highlights.

Dry Season (June – October)

This period offers the best overall wildlife action. Large herds move toward northern Serengeti. In addition, dramatic river crossings may occur at the Grumeti and Mara Rivers.

Calving Season (December – March)

During this time, thousands of wildebeest calves are born in southern Serengeti and Ndutu. As a result, predator activity increases and wildlife viewing becomes intense.

Shoulder Seasons (April – May & November)

These months offer lush landscapes and fewer tourists. Meanwhile, herds continue moving between regions, creating quieter but rewarding safari experiences.

Tip: Choose June–October for river crossings and high action. Select December–March for calving and predator encounters.
