Expert tips

Northern Serengeti

Simply put, some of the very best game viewing in the world today is in the northern Serengeti which is full of secret valleys and ranging hills and the Mara river running through it. The Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya lies closeby across the border. Kogatende also known as Wogakuria offers great quality game viewing, but without the crowds! The migration passes through from June to November, this is an exciting time! With immense panoramic river crossings, you witness crocodiles gorging themselves, whilst indulgent Lion, Cheetah and Leopard pursue and delight in the smorgasbord of nomadic mega herds. We cannot stress enough how amazing the migration can be and if staying at one of the camps in the area during June-October as there is a very good chance of seeing a river crossing and the mass herds of the migration. With healthy resident wildlife populations, you can expect to see good plains game, spectacular predator families and birds. Plus the landscape is truly beautiful. The only accommodation options in this area are small-tented camps, luxury mobile operators and a handful of small luxury lodges. There are no public campsites, large lodges or tourist crowds. You enjoy a private concession experience in a national park located in a prime position to witness the world's greatest natural migration or simply relax and enjoy the resident wildlife around you in this untouched wilderness.
