The Great Migration (also referred to as "Serengeti Migration") is arguably the greatest wildlife show on earth.

Other than the great migrating herds you seek, we may also see cheetah, lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, wildebeest, hartebeest, topi, eland, crocs, Thomson’s, and Grant’s gazelle, amongst many more. With over five hundred bird species identified, the park is a veritable ornithological paradise, ostrich abound, secretary bird, marabou stork, and the largest flighted bird on Earth, the kori bustard. You will experience our "Wild guide" and with the day drawing to a close, you will wend your way to our lodge to unwind, dine, and take our ease by the fire under the endless East African sky.
