Kenya & Tanzania Migration
Both halves of the Mara–Serengeti ecosystem in one week.
The migration does not recognise the border, so following it properly means crossing one. This route puts you in the Mara and the Serengeti in the same week, timed to where the herds actually are.
We adjust the balance between the two depending on your travel month — this is not a fixed departure, and the itinerary below is the shape rather than the rule.
