A 6-day Serengeti Migration Safari in Kogatende, Tanzania, allows you to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration, which is the world's largest migratory movement of wild animals. The migration involves over 2 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles traveling through the Serengeti and Masai Mara ecosystems in search of safe calving grounds and green pastures. The migration's pattern of movement is highly dynamic and weather dependent. In July, the migration moves north, passing through the Lobo and Wagakuria areas of the Serengeti National Park on its way to Kenya's Masai Mara Game Reserve.
