The Magnificence of the Great Migration

The Great Migration is the ever-moving circular migration of over a million animals across the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem and one of the most sought-after experiences for wildlife and nature enthusiasts worldwide. The constant movement of columns of wildebeest, joined by a host of companions, including predators such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, as they follow an age-old route in search of grazing and water. After calving in the southern part of Tanzania’s Serengeti near the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the animals journey through the Serengeti up and around in a clockwise direction towards the Masai Mara in Kenya, before returning once again near the end of the year. Join Professor Goway and James Haigh, a leading figure in the African tourism industry with over 15 years of extensive experience as a guide, lodge manager, overland driver, and marketing manager across multiple East African countries, as they discuss the beautiful intricacies of the Great Migration.
