The best time to see the migration in Tanzania is normally January-March and June-August. We recommend booking as far in advance as you can as it’s a spectacular sight and, in turn, very popular. But don’t worry, if you can’t make it to see the migration, there is a wealth of wildlife to see all year round as the areas we visit are permanently home to over 25,000 mammals (lions, baboons, elephants, rhinos etc) and over 500 bird species.
