Best Time to Witness the 6 Days Serengeti Fly-in Great Migration Safari

The best time to experience the 6 Days Serengeti Fly-in Great Migration Safari depends on which stage of the migration you want to witness as the herds move through different areas of the Serengeti throughout the year.

January to March is an excellent period to visit the Southern Serengeti especially the Ndutu area where thousands of wildebeest gather for the calving season. This is one of the best times to see newborn animals, large herds and increased predator activity as lions, cheetahs and hyenas follow the migration.

April to June offers a quieter safari experience as the herds begin moving north through the Serengeti. This period is ideal for travelers looking for fewer crowds, green landscapes, excellent photography opportunities and dramatic wildlife scenes.

July to October is considered the peak season for the Great Migration.
