Know Before You Go

Bring soft luggage such as a duffel bag, hiking pack, or sports bag. These are ideal for packing into a safari vehicle. Hard suitcases can often be difficult to fit into vehicles.

Bring a backpack to carry all of your important items, including travel documents, money, a camera, medication, etc. You should keep this backpack with you at all times.

Keep luxury items such as hair dryers and straighteners, expensive jewellery, make-up, and bulky toiletries to an absolute minimum. If in doubt, leave them out.

If you plan to bring cash, divide it into different areas of your carry-on luggage, wallet, and money belt just in case something happens to one of those carry-on items.

Leave some space in your luggage for the all-important souvenirs that you will probably buy. There are places where you can send packages home via DHL, etc.; however, this can sometimes be an expensive option.

The wildebeest migration in Tanzania is one of the most spectacular wildlife events in the world. It involves the movement of large herds of wildebeest, zebras, and other animals across the Serengeti ecosystem, crossing the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania and the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. Here are some key points to consider when planning a wildbeest migration safari in Tanzania:

Timing:

Migration Seasons: The Wildebeest Migration is an annual event, and the timing can vary. The general migration patterns are:

January to March: Calving season in the southern Serengeti.

April to June: Migration moves to the central Serengeti.

July to September: The herds cross into the northern Serengeti and may enter the Masai Mara in Kenya.

October to December: The herds start returning to the southern Serengeti.

Best Time to Witness the River Crossings: The River Crossings, particularly the Grumeti River and Mara River Crossings, are some of the most dramatic events during the Migration. This often occurs between June and August.

Safari Routes:

Northern Serengeti: This area is known for the Mara River Crossings. Many Safaris are focused on this Region during the Migration Season.

Central Serengeti: The central Serengeti offers a good chance to witness the migration and is a great location for year-round game viewing.

Southern Serengeti: This area is crucial during the calving season and offers a unique experience with young animals.

Accommodation:

Lodges and Camps: There are various lodges and mobile camps strategically located to provide optimal wildlife viewing during the migration.

Mobile Camps: Some operators set up mobile camps that follow the migration, providing a more immersive experience.
