Overview

This exclusive 6-day fly-in safari is specially designed for travelers seeking the legendary Great Migration river crossings in Northern Serengeti. The safari begins with a scenic flight from Arusha to Kogatende Airstrip, placing you directly in the heart of the migration action along the Mara River.

Spend three nights at Ngu Migration Camp in Northern Serengeti, where you’ll enjoy extensive game drives focused on locating migrating wildebeests and zebras as they gather along the riverbanks before attempting dramatic crossings. These crossings attract large concentrations of predators including lions, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, and Nile crocodiles, creating some of the most exciting wildlife encounters in Africa.

After exploring Northern Serengeti, continue to Central Serengeti for one night at Mawe Tented Camp, offering excellent year-round wildlife viewing and opportunities to encounter resident predators and plains game.

Best Time for This Safari: This itinerary is highly recommended between July and October, when the Great Migration is typically concentrated in Northern Serengeti and Mara River crossings are at their peak. While wildlife sightings are excellent throughout the year, travelers specifically seeking river crossing experiences should plan their safari during these months for the best opportunities.

The adventure concludes with a scheduled flight from Serengeti to Zanzibar, allowing you to combine an unforgettable safari with a relaxing beach escape.
