Tour Tanzania and the Serengeti, with travel options during the wildebeest migration - includes private safari drives, flights and private transfers
Each year, more than a million wildebeest travel in a circular migration, following seasonal rains, across the Serengeti Plains. It's a natural, awe-inspiring spectacle, and to witness it first-hand is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. With travel dates during the migration season available to book as part of our offer, you could opt to tick this experience right off your bucket list, and make your Tanzania and Serengeti escape all the more magical.
On this epic tour you'll visit migration hotspots including Arusha, Tarangire National Park, Lake Natron, Loliondo Game Controlled Area, and of course, the magnificent World Heritage Site that is the Serengeti National Park. Staying in luxurious glamping accommodation throughout and enjoying various game drives run by safari experts and guides, you'll be bedding down in style while also having the chance to spot majestic creatures like elephants, lions, flamingos and cheetahs. And should you choose to travel during the migration period, you'll also get to marvel at herds and herds of wildebeest - you'll be a front-row spectator as life in the natural world unfolds.
