Around February towards mid-March which is generally the calving period they are still in the southern part of Serengeti. The grass here is short and the wildebeest and Zebra can easily spot a predator which makes this area the best for calving. **April – May** During the months of April and May the vegetation is greatly depleted and unable to sustain the masses of herbivores. This forces the herds to start making their way to Grumeti river on the western corridor of the Serengeti. This period is filled with heavy rain and game viewing during this time is almost next to impossible as the roads tend to become impassable. **June – July** The rains are now over! This prompts the herds to start moving towards the north and try to get to the Grumeti river. This is the place where the action start to intensify as the wildebeest and Zebra need water to drink and the river is one of the few sources of water left while the giant crocodiles lie in wait for them. For an intimate migration experience a stay at the Singita Grumeti reserve is encouraged. During this period the herds start making their way to the Masai Mara **August – September** The herds reach the Masai Mara and the spectacular crossings begin. This high stakes drama is quite riveting when you are lucky to be in the right position. This generally a good month to be in the Masai Mara however please note that this is all completely dependent on rain, if the rain was little then the animals don’t have a reason to cross **October – December** October is still good in Masai Mara, but in November the animals start the journey back to the Serengeti because of the rainy season that is beginning in Tanzania **To find out how you can get to experience this great event please contact us below** [![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/ROQ.jpg)](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/book-migration-safari) ### Destinations [**Masai Mara**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/kenya/national-parks/masai-mara) [**![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/Logos-MAIN/Masai-Mara%20%5B320x200%5D.jpg)**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/kenya/national-parks/masai-mara) [**Maswa Game Reserve**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/private-game-reserves/maswa) [**![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/Logos-MAIN/Maswa%20Game%20Reserve%20%5B320x200%5D.jpg)**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/private-game-reserves/maswa) [**Mwiba Game Reserve** ](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/private-game-reserves/mwiba) [**![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/Logos-MAIN/Mwiba%20Game%20Reserve%20%5B320x200%5D.jpg)**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/private-game-reserves/mwiba) [**Ngorongoro**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/national-parks/ngorongoro) [**![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/Logos-MAIN/Ngorongoro%20%5B320x200%5D.jpg)**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/national-parks/ngorongoro) [**Serengeti**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/national-parks/serengeti) [**![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/Logos-MAIN/Serengeti%20%5B320x200%5D.jpg)**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/national-parks/serengeti) [**Singita Grumeti Game Reserve**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/private-game-reserves/singita-grumeti) [**![](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/images/Logos-MAIN/Grumeti%20Game%20Reserve%20%5B320x200%5D.jpg)**](https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/destinations/tanzania/private-game-reserves/singita-grumeti) ### Videos - [ ](https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/safaris/migration-safari "Facebook") - [ ](https://twitter.com/share?url=https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/safaris/migration-safari&text=Migration%20Safaris "Twitter") - [ ](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/safaris/migration-safari "LinkedIn") ## Schema ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://ostafrikaurlaub.de" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Safaris", "item": "https://ostafrikaurlaub.de/safaris" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Wildebeest Migration", "item": "https://ostafrikaurlaub.de/safaris/migration-safari" } ] } ``` ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Product", "name": "Migration Safaris", "image": "https://www.ostafrikaurlaub.de/", "description": "{tab Overview} Experience the Wonder of the Wildebeest Migration Safari Introducing the ultimate luxury migration safari experience, where you'll witness one of the greatest natural wonders on earth in unparalleled style and luxury.
