A 6-day Serengeti fly-in safari, offering quick access to the wildebeest migration. Experience the heart of Tanzania’s wildlife with unforgettable game drives.

What to See:

1. The Great Wildebeest Migration: The Serengeti is synonymous with the Great Wildebeest Migration, a stunning spectacle that occurs every year when millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles travel across the Serengeti plains in search of fresh grazing grounds. Depending on the timing of your visit, you may witness their dramatic river crossings at the Grumeti or Mara Rivers, where herds face crocodiles and swift currents, creating an electrifying scene of survival.
2. The Big Five: The Serengeti is home to the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino. Enjoy thrilling game drives in search of these iconic animals as they roam the park. Lions lounge on the grassy plains or prowl in search of prey, while leopards rest high in the trees. Elephants move in large herds, buffaloes graze peacefully, and rhinos are spotted in the more remote areas of the park.
3. Predators in Action: Serengeti is a prime destination for predator enthusiasts. Watch lions in action as they hunt in coordinated efforts, observe the elusive leopards hiding in trees, or spot cheetahs sprinting across the savannah to catch their prey. The Serengeti offers the perfect opportunity to witness dramatic predator-prey interactions.
4. Birdwatching: Serengeti also attracts a wide range of bird species, with over 500 species to be spotted, including vultures, Secretary Birds, and the African Fish Eagle. The migration season also brings migratory birds to the park, offering birdwatching opportunities for enthusiasts.
5. Scenic Landscapes: Beyond the wildlife, the Serengeti offers breathtaking landscapes, from vast savannahs to rocky outcrops and meandering rivers. The landscape provides the perfect backdrop for sunrise and sunset photography, with golden plains stretching out as far as the eye can see.

How to Dress on Safari:

1. Neutral-colored clothing such as khaki, green, or brown is essential to blend with the environment and avoid attracting insects.
2. Lightweight and breathable clothes for daytime game drives, with a fleece or jacket for chilly mornings and evenings in the Serengeti.
3. Comfortable closed shoes or hiking boots are ideal for game drives and optional walking safaris.
4. Sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses to protect yourself from the sun.
5. A light rain jacket may be useful if you're visiting during the green season (November to May).

What to Carry on Safari:

1. Binoculars for wildlife observation from a distance, especially during game drives.
2. A camera with extra batteries and memory cards to capture the awe-inspiring moments.
3. Reusable water bottle to stay hydrated in the African heat.
4. Insect repellent to prevent bites from mosquitoes and other insects.
5. Personal medications and a basic first aid kit.
6. A small daypack for carrying your essentials such as sunscreen, snacks, and a camera.

Best Time to Travel & Safari Seasons:

1. Dry Season (June - October): The dry season is the peak safari season, offering the best wildlife viewing opportunities as animals congregate around water sources. The migration is typically concentrated in the northern Serengeti, and the iconic river crossings at the Mara River or Grumeti River are most dramatic during these months. Expect clear skies and fewer mosquitoes, making for an ideal safari experience.
2. Green Season (November - May): The green season brings lush landscapes and vibrant vegetation. This is the time when the calving season takes place, usually from January to March, attracting predators in large numbers as wildebeest give birth. Fewer tourists visit during this season, offering a more tranquil experience, with opportunities for birdwatching as migratory species arrive.

The 6-Day Serengeti Migration Fly Safari is the ultimate way to experience the Great Wildebeest Migration in all its glory, offering convenience, comfort, and some of the best wildlife viewing in the world. Whether you’re visiting during the dry season for dramatic river crossings or the green season for calving and predator action, this safari will leave you with memories to last a lifetime. Enjoy a front-row seat to one of nature's greatest spectacles, all while staying in luxurious accommodations and experiencing the magic of the Serengeti.
