Best Time to Visit:

The Serengeti is a year-round safari destination, with each season offering a different wildlife experience.
June to October: Generally ideal for dry-season game drives and wildlife viewing. River crossings may occur during this period, depending on migration movements.
January to February: An excellent time to visit the southern plains during the wildebeest calving season.
March to May: The green season brings lush landscapes, seasonal rainfall, and excellent opportunities for nature photography.
November to December: Short rains transform the plains, and wildlife movements continue across different parts of the ecosystem.
Travel tip: The Great Migration follows seasonal rainfall, so its location changes throughout the year. Choose your safari dates according to the wildlife experience you want to see.
