The opening parks remain Tarangire, Ngorongoro and central Serengeti. Four nights are then allocated to the expected migration region: Ndutu in the southern season, the western corridor around the Grumeti period, or northern Serengeti later in the year.
Your proposal will name the seasonal route, camps and transport plan. The migration is a natural system affected by rainfall and grass, so locations and events cannot be guaranteed.
10-Day Great Migration Safari takes you through Tanzania's most celebrated national parks. Each day is a different landscape, a different wildlife encounter.
