Regarded as one of the greatest wildlife spectacles in the world, the Serengeti's annual wildebeest migration is one of the most remarkable safari experiences to have in a lifetime. With mega-herds of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope spending most of their time on the endless plains of the Serengeti, it's no wonder this park is one of the most popular in the world - and even outside migration season, the Serengeti still offers some of the most rewarding wildlife viewing in Africa. This 4-day itinerary also takes in Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater for a more complete picture of northern Tanzania. The best time to catch the migration is November to August, with April and May being the peak.

After your tour around the park, you'll be transferred to Panorama Camp for the night.
