  • The Great Migration is a natural event, and the movements of the migrating herds are difficult to predict year to year. This safari includes Kenya's Maasai Mara National Reserve and Tanzania's Serengeti National Park, you're guaranteed to see the herds no matter when you visit. River crossings are more of a challenge, and we'll adjust game viewing if there is a chance to witness this rare and extraordinary sight!
