A 2 days Serengeti safari is one of the quickest ways to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration. This short safari takes you through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and into the Serengeti National Park, where millions of wildebeests, zebras, and predators gather during the migration season. It’s ideal for travelers who want fast access to the migration herds, thrilling game drives, and unforgettable wildlife moments in just two days.

The location of the Great Wildebeest Migration changes throughout the year. From December to March, the herds gather in the Ndutu area for the dramatic calving season. Between June and July, they move through the central Serengeti, and from July to October the wildlife action shifts to the northern Serengeti for the famous river crossings. Because the Serengeti is such a vast park, we recommend a minimum of 2 days to truly experience its wildlife and landscapes.

This 2-day Serengeti safari follows the movement of the herds based on your travel dates, ensuring you enjoy unforgettable game drives, incredible wildlife sightings, and the very best of the Serengeti. Adding an extra day can make your safari even more rewarding, giving you additional time for game drives, photography, and a deeper connection with this iconic African wilderness.
