What month is the best to visit Serengeti ?

What month is the best to visit Serengeti  ? The Serengeti is a marvelous place to visit throughout the whole year – you won’t go wrong with whatever month you choose to visit. When picking the season to visit this national park, you should consider your preferences and priorities. Ask yourself, “What do I want to see most on my trip to the Serengeti?” Below we have a few key insights in helping you pick the right month:

For instance, if you would like to witness the Great Migration, going on a Serengeti safari tour between July and September is ideal. On the other hand, January to March is perfect timing if you have the desire to watch the new born calves as well as spot birdlife. If crowds aren’t your thing, then consider visiting the Serengeti during our winter months of October and November. These are two of the least crowded months, and you will still get exactly what you desire from your Serengeti safari adventure.

 

 

Here’s a more detailed breakdown: June to August/early September: This period is prime time for the Great Migration, with herds moving through the western corridor and into the northern Serengeti, including the famous Mara River crossings. January and February: This is the calving season in the southern Serengeti, a great time to see predators like lions and cheetahs hunting the vulnerable newborns. March to May: This is the shoulder season with fewer crowds and lower prices. The landscape is lush and green, and birdwatching is at its best. November to December: Another good time for fewer crowds and lower prices, with the possibility of seeing the wildebeest herds starting their migration south.
