Migration Update: Central Serengeti

The migration is in the central Serengeti heading west (towards the Grumeti River) and north. They will continue west into the western corridor of the Serengeti and then head north towards the Masai Mara over the coming weeks.

To see the migration this year, we are recommending the northern Serengeti from July to November.

Sun Safaris has some excellent safari packages and tours this year.

Migration on the move

The wildebeest have started to move from the southern Serengeti. The main migrating herds are in the central Serengeti. Some of the herds are moving west towards the Grumeti River in the western Serengeti. Other herds are milling around Seronera, Moru or heading north west. The migration will continue moving west into the Grumeti (western Serengeti) and north west directly into the northern Serengeti over the coming weeks. They will continue migrating west and then north until they reach the Masai Mara and northern Serengeti, normally around late July.

The best permanent camps at this time of year are:
Dunia Camp: Situated in the beautiful Moru Kopjes.
Grumeti Tented Camp: Grumeti Serengeti Tented Camp offers 10 luxury safari tents.
