Itinerary

Witness one of nature’s grandest spectacles on the 7-Day Migration Safari: Spending a Week in the Wild. Every year, over two million wildebeest, zebras, and antelope traverse the vast plains of East Africa, braving river crossings and evading predators in the Serengeti and Masai Mara. This immersive tour package places you at the heart of the action, offering unrivaled opportunities to observe the Great Migration’s drama as herds surge across the Mara River—shadowed by lions, cheetahs, and massive crocodiles.

Throughout the trip, you’ll enjoy expertly guided game drives and the comfort of luxurious accommodations, ensuring you’re always close to the wildlife but never far from relaxation. The unique blend of raw wilderness and modern amenities makes this safari ideal for travelers seeking both adventure and comfort.

What sets this experience apart is its combination of close-up wildlife encounters and a week-long itinerary designed for true immersion. For nature lovers and those who crave the thrill of Africa’s untamed beauty, this journey promises a week you’ll remember for a lifetime.

day 1 - Airport Pick Up

You will be picked up by our representatives from Kilimanjaro International Airport. They will answer all your other queries regarding your upcoming safari and provide you with a short briefing as well. Afterwards, you will be taken to your accommodation at Mount Meru Hotel.

Duration:2 hours

Accommodation:5 Star Hotel at Mount Meru Hotel

day 2 - Tarangire National Park

After your breakfast at Mount Meru, we will pick you up and proceed to Tarangire National park.

One of the largest national park in Tanzania located in Manyara region, this place is characterized by the large herds of elephants, tree climbing lions, and the fascinating baobab trees also called the Tree of Life for its almost mythical powers that some cultures attach to it.

This park is especially known for Tarangire river which flows all year round and the only source of water for wild animals during dry seasons.

Accommodation: Tarangire Sopa Lodge

Duration:8 hours

Accommodation: Eco lodge

day 3 - Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, we will drive to Ngorongoro for the crater tour with picnic descent to the crater floor for the day tour. Some 20,000 mammals live in the area including about 20 black rhinoceros, making the crater the best place in Tanzania to see these amazing creatures.

The crater floor also has one of the highest carnivore densities in the world. Lions, cheetahs, hyenas and jackals are commonly seen, while leopards, servals and bat-eared foxes may be seen with some luck.

Accommodation: Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge

Duration:8 hours

Accommodation: Eco lodge

day 4 - Serengeti Central (Seronera)

After breakfast, we will leave for Central Serengeti National Park with picnic lunch and game drive along the way. Serengeti, among other incredible wildlife and stunning views is famed for the annual migration of over 1.5 million wildebeest and hundred thousands of zebras, a frenzied bout of territorial conquests and mating happening from July-October.

Witness an actual survival of the fittest as these animals plunge through crocodile-infested waters. The wildebeest produces more than 8,000 calves daily before the 1,000 km (600 mile) pilgrimage begins again.

Accommodation: Serengeti Serena Lodge

Duration:8 hours

Accommodation: Eco lodge

day 5 - Northern Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, we will drive to Serengeti north viewing the great migration at Mara area. The key feature is the Mara River and it is not uncommon to see the herds cross the Mara River north on one day and then back south a few days later.

Please take note that finding a crossing is very challenging and is sometimes a matter of luck. There are instances where herds can be seen next to the river but then only decide to cross a couple of days later. This area is a stunning region with kopjes, woodland, riverine vegetation and open plains, similar to Kenya's Masai Mara Game Reserve.

Accommodation: Chaka Tented Camp

Duration:8 hours

Accommodation: Eco lodge

day 6 - Northern Serengeti National Park

Yet another day of game drive following the trail of the Great Migration.
