Experience the breathtaking Great Migration in Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park. Watch millions of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles journey across the vast plains in search of fresh grazing while predators follow closely behind.
The Great Migration is one of the most extraordinary wildlife events on Earth. Every year, more than two million wildebeest, zebras and gazelles move across the Serengeti ecosystem in Tanzania and Maasai mara in Kenya
