Design My Journey
Not a race to a river crossing. A patient journey into the Serengeti ecosystem, placing you close to the season’s wildlife movement and giving you time to stay with a sighting.
January–March for the southern plains; roughly July–October for northern areas. Rainfall shifts the herds and crossings are never guaranteed.

From arrival to farewell
A suggested itinerary, adjustable to the season and to you. Exact travel times, stays and services are confirmed in your proposal.
A private airport transfer and an easy first evening. Review current wildlife conditions and the final seasonal routing with your guide.
Travel toward Ngorongoro with a leisurely lunch stop and time to enjoy your lodge.
An early crater descent and picnic lunch. Return to your lodge for a slower afternoon.
Travel into the central plains with game viewing en route. Settle into camp before evening.
Spend the day looking for resident wildlife around kopjes and river corridors. The Serengeti is more than migration alone.
Move to the area selected for your dates, by road or a separately specified internal flight. In the south this may mean the Ndutu ecosystem; in the north, the Mara region.
An unhurried day in the selected wildlife area. Follow park rules, give animals space and let the sightings determine the pace.
A second full day creates options beyond yesterday’s route. An optional balloon flight depends on the operating area and availability.
Keep your final full day flexible, with a long game drive or time between shorter outings.
A planned bush flight and private onward transfer. We confirm connection times before arranging international departures.
