For those wishing to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration and the dramatic Mara River crossings, the best time of year to visit falls between late July and October.
The actual dates will vary from year to year, as conditions such as rainfall can drastically alter the course and speed of the migration’s movement across the Serengeti.
Aside from this, the Masai Mara is widely regarded as an ideal year-round safari destination. It is possible to visit at any time – wet season or dry – and still have an excellent chance to see the fabled Big 5 and the park’s many other inhabitants.
