When can I see the river crossings?

The famous Mara River crossings in the north generally occur from about July to October, though timing shifts each year with the rains.

Where is the migration right now?

It moves in a rough annual circle: calving in the south from January to March, heading north-west by mid-year, and crossing the Mara in the north from July onward.

Is the migration in the Serengeti or Ngorongoro?

The great migration takes place within the Serengeti ecosystem, though the herds also pass through the northern part of the neighbouring Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
