About this safari
Our 8-Day Tanzania Migration Safari is designed around the Great Wildebeest Migration, combining three full Serengeti days with the highlights of Tanzania’s northern circuit. Departing from Arusha, the journey includes Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti, creating a varied safari experience across some of Tanzania’s best-known wildlife destinations. Three full days in the Serengeti maximize opportunities to encounter the Migration and follow the movement of wildebeest across the plains. The safari also includes the chance to witness Mara River crossings, among the most dramatic and heart-stopping spectacles associated with the Great Wildebeest Migration. Wildlife viewing extends beyond the Migration, with exceptional lion viewing in the Serengeti, known for Africa’s densest lion population, as well as Big Five game drives across the route. The itinerary balances focused Serengeti time with game drives in Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This combination makes the trip unique: it brings together Migration viewing, renowned northern Tanzania destinations, predator encounters and a complete northern circuit experience within eight days. An optional hot air balloon safari is available for an extraordinary Serengeti experience, offering another way to appreciate the landscape and wildlife. Accommodation is provided as listed, with meals as indicated and drinking water available in the vehicle. Park entrance fees, a professional safari guide and all game drives are included, allowing the safari to remain focused on wildlife encounters from arrival through the final drive. Priced at 2700 USD per person, this Tanzania safari is a comprehensive option for travelers seeking the Great Wildebeest Migration, Mara River crossings, Serengeti lions and Big Five game viewing in one carefully planned journey.
