  • November–December: Beautiful scenery and resident wildlife viewing.

Great Migration Viewing

The Great Migration follows seasonal rainfall patterns. Wildebeest calving generally occurs in southern Serengeti between January and March, while northern Serengeti river crossings are most associated with July–October.

Note: This safari visits central Serengeti, so migration sightings depend on seasonal herd movements. Northern Serengeti river crossings are not included.

Recommended Travel Season

July–October is our recommended period for excellent wildlife viewing across Amboseli, Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.

Safari Price: From USD 1,300 per adult sharing.
Travel Period: 2027–2028, subject to group availability.

Expert Insights – 9 Days Amboseli & Tanzania Group Sharing Safari

By John Peter | Senior East Africa Safari Specialist & Operations Manager | 16+ Years of Experience

With over 16 years of safari experience, I recommend this 9-day Kenya and Tanzania group safari for travellers seeking exceptional wildlife encounters, diverse landscapes and affordable safari adventures.

1. Best Time for Amboseli Game Drives

Early morning game drives offer excellent elephant sightings and clearer views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds gather.

2. Tarangire's Best Wildlife Season

July to October is ideal for viewing large elephant herds and other wildlife gathering near the Tarangire River.

3. Serengeti Predator Viewing

Central Serengeti's Seronera region offers excellent year-round opportunities to spot lions, leopards and cheetahs, particularly during early morning game drives.

4. Ngorongoro Crater Experience

An early crater descent provides rewarding wildlife viewing, including opportunities to see lions, buffaloes, elephants and endangered black rhinos.

5. Safari Travel & Camping Tips

Expect scenic but lengthy road transfers and three nights of wilderness camping. Pack warm clothing, comfortable shoes, binoculars and a camera.

My Expert Recommendation

July to October offers the best overall combination of dry weather and wildlife viewing. This safari is particularly suitable for couples, friends, solo travellers and families with older children seeking an affordable Kenya and Tanzania wildlife adventure.
