Picture yourself on the boundless plains of Tanzania’s Serengeti, the air vibrating with the energy of millions of hooves pounding across the earth. Wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles stretch as far as the eye can see, embarking on one of the most extraordinary natural spectacles on the planet—the Great Migration.
As travel experts specializing in Tanzania, we can tell you that there is no wildlife experience quite like it. The migration is an awe-inspiring dance of survival, a year-long journey that unfolds across Tanzania and Kenya. Whether you dream of witnessing a dramatic river crossing, standing amid thousands of newborn wildebeest calves, or watching big cats in action, the Great Migration offers unparalleled adventure at every turn.
The Great Migration is one of the most extraordinary wildlife spectacles on the planet, with over 1.5 million wildebeest, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and gazelles following the rains and the growth of fresh grass across Tanzania’s Serengeti and Kenya’s Maasai Mara. This incredible journey spans 1,000 to 1,500 miles annually, driven by the seasonal rains that bring fresh grazing lands and water to support these animals’ survival and maintain the health of the ecosystem.
Throughout the year, the migration follows the rhythm of the rains:
Each stage of the migration offers a different perspective, making every visit unique and unforgettable.
When planning a safari to witness the Great Migration, timing and location are essential. Roane Travel Design ensures you’re in the right place at the right time, with luxury accommodations that provide front-row access to the action. To maximize on your experience, we recommend staying in a mobile tented camp which relocates throughout the year to follow the migration. Examples of these include TAASA Migration Camp, opening July 2025, and Siringit Migration Camp.
