Each year, over 1.5 million wildebeest, accompanied by hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, embark on a circular pilgrimage through the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem, following the rains in search of fresh grazing land. This is The Great Wildebeest Migration—one of the most breathtaking and dramatic wildlife spectacles on Earth.

From the calving season in the southern Serengeti (January–March), where thousands of newborns take their first steps, to the heart-stopping river crossings in the north (July–October), where herds brave crocodile-infested waters, every stage offers unforgettable moments of survival, movement, and raw nature.

With Bearfoot Expeditions, you’ll be in the right place at the right time, guided by local experts who know where the action is unfolding. Whether you want to photograph dramatic scenes or simply marvel at the sheer scale of the migration, we’ll craft an itinerary around your dream.
