6 Days Serengeti Wildebeest Migration - Western Corridor

TRIP OVERVIEW

Experience the mesmerizing 6-day Serengeti Wildebeest Migration safari, immersing you in the heart of the western Corridor within Serengeti Park. The focal point of this adventure is the formidable Grumeti River, a significant natural obstacle encountered by the migrating wildebeest as they journey into the northern expanse of Serengeti National Park. Over the course of this meticulously crafted 6-day itinerary, you will have the exclusive opportunity to bear witness to the awe-inspiring spectacle of wildebeest and zebras in their natural element. Behold as they bravely traverse the challenges of crossing the powerful Grumeti River, all while caring for their vulnerable newborns. The journey continues as you venture towards the iconic Mara River crossing, where lurking crocodiles lie in wait, poised to seize their unsuspecting prey.

When you arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport, our driver guide will meet you and transfer you to Arusha for Dinner and Overnight.

Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Embarking in the morning from your Arusha lodge, we will transport you to Tarangire National Park. Renowned for its distinctive baobab trees and extensive elephant gatherings, the park reveals up to 50 majestic elephants seeking water in the arid riverbeds, alongside the presence of wildebeest, zebra, and buffalo. An afternoon game drive accompanied by a delightful picnic lunch will be followed by your transfer to the lodge, where you will rest for the night.

Day 2: Tarangire National Park to Central Serengeti

Following a hearty breakfast, you will set forth with a packed lunch on a 4-hour journey to Serengeti National Park. En route, the Ngorongoro highlands may grant you sightings of African Cape buffalo, baboons, and elephants. Your lunch will be enjoyed within the park, paving the way for further exploration of Serengeti’s expanses. After a day replete with game viewing, you will be conveyed to your lodge or tented camp for a sumptuous dinner and a peaceful overnight stay.

Day 3 and 4: Serengeti Western Corridor

Daybreak will see you traversing to the Western Corridor of the park after breakfast. Notably, the Grumeti River crossing presents one of the most remarkable vantage points for observing the wildebeest migration. Here, the unfolding drama includes encounters with formidable big cats and the imposing Nile crocodiles. As the sun sets, you will return to your lodge or tented abode for an evening of relaxation, dinner, and rest.

Day 5: Western Corridor to Ngorongoro Crater

Embrace an early morning game drive, seizing the opportunity to encounter the wildebeest in their natural habitat. A delightful lunch amidst the wilderness will precede your departure for the Ngorongoro Crater. While journeying through the highlands of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, maintain a watchful gaze for diverse wildlife. Upon arriving in the afternoon, settle into your lodge situated on the crater rim.

Day 6: Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

Rise early and embark on a journey to the Ngorongoro Crater following a satisfying breakfast. This unparalleled habitat hosts a plethora of captivating creatures, including lion, elephant, African Cape buffalo, and elusive black rhino. Indulge in lunch while basking in the splendid crater panorama, and take a moment to visit the hippo pool and engage in birdwatching before commencing your return drive to Arusha.

Kilimanjaro Lemosho route TTC were amazing throughout my trek to the Kilimanjaro summit in October 2022. Everything was organised so well but the really exceptional aspect was the team of local support staff and guide. AJ, Paul, Isaya, Joseph, Pascal, Renata and the 30 other fantastic people that carried, cooked, camped and cared for us. Absolutely loved every second, a trip of a lifetime, thank you 🙏

Once in a lifetime experience I climbed Kilimanjaro with the Tanzanian Travel Company (booked through Charity Challenge UK) in October 2022. Everything was superbly coordinated by TTC, who arranged everything from porters, transport, food, tents- pretty much everything we needed to get to the summit! All of the staff from the guides and porters were very friendly and their knowledge was unrivalled. Special mentions to our lead guide, Richard, who's advice was invaluable and the other guides and porters David, Eric and Joseph (there are too many to mention). Would definitely book again with TTC in the future.

Excellent experience I just got back from climbing My Kilimanjaro on a trip organised by Charity Challenge in the UK. All the ground arrangements in Tanzania were done through Tanzania Travel Company and I would highly recommend. Staff were all excellent, knowledgeable and friendly. It was a great trip and I’m considering organising a holiday for the family with TTC in the future.

Great company with excellent staff Climbed Kilimanjaro with the Tanzanian Travel Company at the end if July and the whole experience was superb. The guides, porters, cook, doctor & toilet man were unfailingly encouraging, helpful, cheerful and really seemed to enjoy their work. I would thoroughly recommend them.

An adventure you won't forget! The whole experience from start to finish was awesome and I most certainly won't forget it. From the hotel to the staff and porters who made our trek possible, the food was tasty and plentiful, we all felt like part of the team and very well looked after.I definitely recommend doing the Lemosho Route for a greater chance of acclimatisation. The summit night was by far the hardest part but well worth the effort (even I got emotional). I would urge everybody looking to climb Kilimanjaro to definitely train for a good 4-5 months before attempting this challenge, it will only enhance the mammoth achievement.

Fantastic time climbing Kilimanjaro thanks to TTC! I recently completed a climb of Kilimanjaro with a small group of 7, managed on behalf of Charity Challenge by Tanzania Travel Company. We had a fantastic (if gruelling) experience, and I cannot praise TTC highly enough. From the MD Sam and our chief guide Richard, through to every guide and porter who accompanied us (not forgetting Pius, our doctor), everyone combined the highest standards of professionalism with warmth and friendliness, and a genuine concern for both our well-being and our success in getting to the summit. Highly recommended.

Amazing family experience Excellent safari! Incredibly friendly and accommodating! I was having some difficulty finding a well priced thorough safari and was given a number by a family friend who highly recommended this safari company. As Tanzanians it’s rare for us to be able to see a safari but Samuel helped guide us through a plan for a truly unforgettable experience. We hide an amazingly well educated guide and driver Kamau who went out of his way to get us some truly amazing shots. At one point we were literally 2-3 meters away from 3 young male lions, I was in shock at what Kamau could point out. Food provided was excellent Tanzanian cuisine. My little brothers(8 yr)first safari and he had a fantastic time Highly recommend as a Tanzanian.

Excellent experience with TTC! Setting out to climb Mt Kilimanjaro was quite a challenge and the team at TTC made it a safe and enjoyable trip! They did an excellent job guiding us through each day of the climb. I also had the opportunity to go on a safari afterwards with a guide named Livingston and he did an absolutely fantastic job getting us close to the animals and knowing the best spots in the game drives. Highly recommend this incredible travel group!
