Destinations
-
Nairobi, Kenya
Your gateway to the safari. Visit the Giraffe Centre or David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust before heading into the wild. Stock up on supplies and gear in the city before your journey north.
-
Masai Mara, Kenya
The heart of the Great Migration, typically peaking July–October when millions of wildebeest cross the Mara River. Book a reputable camp like Governors' Camp or Angama Mara and take daily game drives at dawn and dusk for the best sightings.
-
Serengeti, Tanzania
The Serengeti is the other half of the Great Migration ecosystem, hosting the calving season in February and massive herds year-round. Stay in the central Seronera Valley or follow the herds to the northern corridor near Kogatende for dramatic river crossings.
-
Zanzibar, Zanzibar
Unwind on the stunning white-sand beaches of Nungwi or Paje after your safari adventure. Explore the UNESCO-listed Stone Town with its spice markets and Swahili architecture. A perfect one-night decompression before flying home.
