Places along the way
These are the stops in the published route, not a fixed daily schedule. We will plan the pace, stays and travel connections together before you book.
Stop 1
Tarangire National Park
In the shade of old baobabs, watch elephant families make their own way. Your guide knows where to pause and let the day settle around you.
Stop 2
Central Serengeti
On the plains, the horizon seems to have no end. Linger with what unfolds, whether a distant herd, a bird in the grass or simply the light.
Stop 3
Ngorongoro Crater
The crater opens below you like a world of its own. Take time to absorb its scale before finding a quieter corner with your guide.
The Serengeti migration
Timing the herds: where to be, how long to stay, and when to fly
The migration moves across the Serengeti all year. Our full guide shows where the herds are each month, why we hold to a two-night minimum in every migration area (three in the north), and why we fly you into the northern Serengeti instead of driving a full day each way.
- Two-night minimumWe never sell single-night migration stops — one afternoon and one morning is not enough to find the herds.
- Fly into the northA two-hour flight to Kogatende beats 9–11 hours on rough road and gives you back nearly two full game days.
