Our 5-day Serengeti wildebeest Migration Safari Western from Mwanza start from May to June, is one of the best itineraries designed specifically to focus on and to increase your chance to see the great Serengeti wildebeest migration on the Western side. Safaris drive through the western corridor of the Serengeti, which is a remarkable experience.
In June the majority of the migration can then be found in the Western Corridor. The Western Corridor is a narrow stretch of land that stretches from the west of Seronera to the Western Serengeti National Park border. The Western corridor is one of the areas where the migrating animals are forced to cross the Grumeti River. This normally happens when the animals leave the southern plains and begin heading north. Please note witnessing a crossing is a matter of luck.
Please note that it is difficult to predict the exact timing and location of the migration at any time, as this can vary considerably from year to year, depending on factors such as rainfall, water availability, food abundance, predators and the phosphorus content in the grasses.
Drive on a tarmac road from Mwanza to Ndabaka gate.
