Witness Nature’s Greatest Show – The Great Wildebeest Migration

Experience the legendary Great Migration Safari as herds of more than 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras and gazelles embark on a thrilling (and perilous) journey across the vast savannahs of the Serengeti (in Tanzania) and the rolling grasslands of the Masai Mara (in Kenya), searching for fresh grazing.

Feel your heart race as vast herds thunder across these ancient plains, witness dramatic river crossings, and spot iconic predators in action. A Great Migration safari is a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle of survival, movement, and raw wildlife drama.
