From July to October, witness the Great Migration, a breathtaking spectacle of wildebeest and zebras braving crocodile-infested rivers. Rise with the sun for a hot air balloon safari, floating above herds and rivers before landing to a champagne breakfast. Explore on foot with expert guides or visit a traditional Maasai village to experience vibrant culture and storytelling.

Day 3

Across the Wild frontier; Safari from Maasai Mara to the endless plains of Serengeti

Across the Wild frontier; Safari from Maasai Mara to the endless plains of Serengeti

Transferring from the Maasai Mara to the Serengeti is a journey between two of Africa’s most iconic safari destinations, but it’s not as straightforward as it looks on a map. Though the parks are adjacent, they’re separated by the Kenya–Tanzania border, and there’s no direct crossing within the reserves. Most travelers use the Isebania border, a remote post that requires a full day’s drive through scenic countryside and rural towns. The road can be bumpy, but the changing landscapes—from savannah to rolling hills—make it a visual treat. Due to cross-border vehicle restrictions, travelers often switch safari vehicles at the border. Despite the logistical complexity, this transfer is a gateway to experiencing the full drama of the Great Migration across two nations and one seamless wilderness.

Main Destination:
Serengeti National Park (Tanzania)
Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)
High Season July to March (The Seronera area is crowded)
Best Weather June to October (Little to no rainfall)
