Tips for a Better Gorilla trekking experience

Book your Tour and Secure the Gorilla Trekking permits early

In Uganda, only 128 visitors can take part in the Gorilla Trekking experience in Bwindi and Uganda has the cheapest gorilla permits prices at USD800 compared to Rwanda. This means the competition is quite high for the few gorilla permits in Uganda and it becomes hard to secure gorilla trekking permits a few days to your Uganda gorilla tour although you might get lucky sometimes hence a need to book your tour or gorilla trekking permit fully latest 3 months in advance.

Know your fitness levels before the Gorilla Trekking experience.

Finding the Gorillas is not predictable meaning you might walk for long hours before finding them hence a need to be moderately fit and prepared for the longer treks.

Get the help of Porters for the gorilla trek

If you are not moderately fit, we recommend you get the help of a porter so that you can track without having to carry the few essential items listed below in your day pack. The porters are from the local community and very used to the local conditions and can assist in pushing, pulling and supporting you during your trek to the gorillas. They usually come at an additional fee over and above your safari cost ranging from approximately USD15-20 per porter per day as a fee with additional tipping being optional.

What to pack for a Successful Gorilla Trekking Experience

  • Plenty of water – 1-2 liters per person (most lodges provide the water, but we also have it in the car)
  • High energy snacks in addition to your packed lunch provided by the lodge/camp
  • Spare film and batteries for videos and cameras
  • Gloves (gardening type are good)
  • Waterproof bag to protect photographic equipment
  • Hiking gaiters
  • A hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, and band-aids might be useful
  • A lightweight waterproof jacket/poncho
  • Walking sticks are made available at the start of the trek for some of the steeper and more slippery tracks and may prove to be very handy.

Allowed Uganda Gorilla Trekking Age Limits

The age limit for gorilla trekking is 15 years and the authorities are very strict on this! With special written permission, however, a 14yr old might pass.

What is the Best Time to go for the 3 Days Gorilla Trekking Tour

Serengeti Wildebeest Migration

How To Plan a Tailored Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari For First Timers

For First Timers that are craving for the bloody drama of the great migration that passes through the Serengeti and Mara Eco systems,  it can be overwhelming to start planning a Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari because of a number of things including the choice of accommodation, the number of days to stay and how to get there among others. Planning a Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari in Tanzania requires you to book your Vacation very early in the year or a year in advance to ensure that you don’t miss out on accommodation and some time transportation since the migration takes place during the high season Months of June, July, August and September. Our Ultimate guide to planning a Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari provides tips to book your Wildebeest Migration Safari Vacation that occurs in Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park.

The annual Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari in Tanzania goes through the Serengeti-Mara Ecosystem as over 2 million animals including the wildebeest as well as zebra and gazelle follow the rains from region to region. The migrating herds undergo a number of challenges and hardships including attacks from predators and crocodiles that lie in wait at various river crossing points. The Migration goes through the south and central Seronera areas into the Western Corridor and arrive in Grumeti River during the month of April to May residing till June. Then Migrating herds then move towards the Masai Mara Game Reserve in Kenya crossing the Crocodile infested Mara River around  the Months of July and August all through to September and arriving in the Lobo and Loliondo areas in eastern part of Serengeti during the Months of October and November. The wildebeest Migration comes back to the southern part of Serengeti in the Ndutu calving grounds with arrivals starting around December staying till March (read more on when is the best time to visit Serengeti ).

The Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari dates and timing entirely depends on the annual rains and availability of fresh pasture which may seasonally occur earlier or later in the year but the experience is worth the effort as you get to watch over 1 Million animals move across the Serengeti plains driven by instinct or necessity. The epic journey is one of violence and endurance as the Migrating herds battle forward through the lion infested kopjes and crocodile infested rivers.

Ultimate Guide to Planning A Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari

All you need to know to plan an epic Serengeti Migration safari

-Book your Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari Very early

Early booking is highly recommended because camps tend to fill up quickly especially during the Months of June to October which is a high season and a great time to view the popular river crossings in Grumeti and Mara River. It is better that you start planning and making inquiries in December or March or even a year in advance. However tourists should note that the Migrating herds can be seen all year-round and one can choose to see the calving season instead of the river crossings. Start Planning your Serengeti Migration Safari with Engabi Tours and Travel

-Choose the right Month for your Migration Safari and Number of Days to Stay:

There are no specific dates to witness the Wildebeest Migration crossings in Serengeti though the months June until early October provide high chances of witnessing the Natural wonder in either Grumeti River ( June) or the Mara River ( Mid July, August, September up to very early October) . We therefore recommend that you go for your Serengeti Migration Safari ( River Crossings) between the Months of June up to mid October though Serengeti National Park can be visited all year round. Tourists should consider a stay of 7 Days Serengeti Migration Safari minimum ( when Transfers are by Road from Arusha and if the Migration tour is combined with other Northern Circuit parks of Tarangire and the Ngorongoro Crater) or 3 Days Migration Safari minimum when one decides to fly to the Serengeti. Tourists may also consider combining the Migration Safari with Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda or Uganda ( See here a sample Gorilla Trekking and Migration Safari Itinerary)

-Choose the right accommodation Camp:

Your place of accommodation matters a lot on your migration safari as it helps you to have wonderful experience and get the best views of the Natural wonder.  The Migration Camps tend to be more luxurious and expensive due to the prime locations closer to the wildebeest crossings and we recommend an early booking for one to be able to secure the best camps in the best locations. Contact us for advise on the camp and availability. Other things to consider include what to pack and the travel requirements to enter Tanzania.

What is the Best Month to go for a Serengeti Migration Safari?

The Best Months to go for a Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari is from June-September as explained below:

June up to early July is traditionally the Grumeti River crossing period though the intensity and drama of the crossing depends on the water levels of Grumeti River which occasionally sees raised levels like the Mara River sees in July and August. Expect a rewarding experience in June as the herds will be spread out.

Late July marks the start of the Mara River crossings as well as mating season in the Serengeti and since it’s a dry season with a more arid Serengeti, the wildebeest herds begin moving faster in search of water and greener grass making their way across Grumeti River and Mara River where crocodiles are encountered.

August is arguably the best month to see the dramatic Mara River crossings in the Serengeti or Masai Mara and it’s the time the dry season kicks into overdrive. The herds are continuing their search for greener grass making their way across the crocodile infested Mara River.

September is one last chance to see the epic Mara River crossings in the Serengeti or Masai Mara and around this time its more hot and dry in both Serengeti and Masai Mara. Most of the wildebeests have already crossed into the greater Masai Mara area and are enjoying the lush green resources before venturing North wards.

What is Serengeti National Park Famous for?

What is Serengeti National Park Famous for? What is Serengeti famous for? Serengeti National Park Tanzania is famous for the Great Wildebeest Migration a natural wonder that sees millions of wildebeests, Thompsons gazelles, zebras and elands migrate further North to Masai Mara in Kenya each year from June to October. The Serengeti is also famous for the high concentration of a variety of wildlife populations including the African elephant, lion, Cape buffalo, rhino, leopard as well as cheetahs, gazelles, giraffes and zebras among others not forgetting the  sunrises and sunsets that make the heart go wild.

Basically a Safari in Serengeti National Park takes you to explore Africa’s best safari park known for it’s world’s largest wildlife migration and a high concentration of big cats like lions, cheetah, leopard and hyenas and With no doubt, Serengeti National Park Tanzania is where safari goers come to truly experience an ultimate Serengeti National Park Safari on their safari holiday in Africa and the park is undoubtedly the best kept and known wildlife sanctuary in the world  also known for having accommodated the early man himself at Olduvai Gorge about two million years ago. The near by areas of Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire National park and Lake Manyara National park are also worth a visit.

Serengeti National Park is the oldest and Tanzania’s most popular National park located in Northern Tanzania and bordering with Kenya’s Masai Mara. The park covers an area of 14,763 square kilometers (5,700 square miles) of grassland plains, savanna land as well as riverine forest and woodlands. Traditionally it’s inhabited by the Maasai people who call it Siringitu,“meaning the place where the land moves on forever”.

A Serengeti National Park safari is a spectacular experience no matter what time of the year you visit and below we have listed what we think are the best things to do in Serengeti to guide you in planning a Serengeti Safari holiday.

Famous Things to do in Serengeti National Park

Witnessing the Great Wildebeest Migration

Arguably one of the world’s top Natural wonders, this annual event sees over one and a half million wildebeest accompanied by hundreds of thousands of zebra and numerous antelope species move in search for greener pastures. Their movement covers about 500 kilometers in a clockwise direction from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara. The highlights of the Great wildebeest Migration are the Grumeti River crossing (May/June) and Mara Rivers crossing (July-September) which take place as the wildebeest head back north wards the Masai Mara. Between February and March, you can witness wildebeest birthing their young ones in the Ndutu area which attracts predators and therefore a lot of dramatic predator action.

 Game Viewing /Wildlife Game drives

The Serengeti National Park is a top destination for an ultimate Tanzania safari game drive on an African safari Vacation. The park is home to 2,500 lions and more than one million wildebeest that roam the Serengeti plains. Given the large size of the park, tourists cannot explore it in a single day and may require at least 4 days to explore each section of the park.

Serengeti is known for predators like cheetah, leopards, hyena, jackals and a ton of lions in addition to elephants, Buffalo, wildebeest, Zebra, Gazelles and antelopes among others.

Masai Village Cultural tour

Masai semi-nomadic people have been the inhabitants of the Serengeti ecosystem for centuries. They live in northern Tanzania and southern Kenya along the Great Rift Valley and their traditional ways of life and the unique traditional clothing make a visit to their villages memorable. Here you will learn about their customs, traditions and lifestyles with a brief dancing ceremony, a visit to the traditional boma made of sticks, mud and cow dung, a visit to the village schools and craft village among other activities.

Hot Air balloon Safari

Experience the Serengeti plains and its wildlife in a special way by embarking on a hot air balloon Tanzania safari. This is a memorable way of exploring the Serengeti and helps tourist have a different perspective of the wildlife and the vast plains on the hot air balloon as they have a bird eye’s view of the park.

Visit Oduvai Gorge & Kopjes

Arguably one of the most ancient and historical spots to visit during a Tanzania wildlife safari, the Oduvai Gorge is a famous spot where archaeologists Louis and Mary Leakey discovered human fossils and tools dating back to over 2 million years ago. Fossil remains of over 60 hominids have been found in this area making it one of the most important pale anthropological sites in the world. It is a convenient stop for tourists traveling between the Ngorongoro crater and the Serengeti National Park. The Kopjes on the other hand are granite rocks that stand out in the Serengeti Plains and add to the already spectacular flat grassland. They offer perfect places to see wildlife like the lions, cheetahs and reptiles.

On your visit to Tanzania’s oldest national park and a major lead for the northern safari circuit, you can also visit other northern Tanzania circuit Parks that  include the Lake Manyara National Park, Tarangire National Park, Arusha National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area with extension trips to Uganda or Rwanda for gorilla trekking and to Zanzibar and Ssese Islands for a beach holiday.

Tips To Prepare for a Better Gorilla trekking experience

Book your Tour and Secure the Gorilla Trekking permits early

In Uganda, only 128 visitors can take part in the Gorilla Trekking experience in Bwindi and Uganda has the cheapest gorilla permits prices at USD800 compared to Rwanda. This means the competition is quite high for the few gorilla permits in Uganda and it becomes hard to secure gorilla trekking permits a few days to your Uganda gorilla tour although you might get lucky sometimes hence a need to book your tour or gorilla trekking permit fully latest 3 months in advance.

Know your fitness levels before the Gorilla Trekking experience.

Finding the Gorillas is not predictable meaning you might walk for long hours before finding them hence a need to be moderately fit and prepared for the longer treks.

Get the help of Porters for the gorilla trek

If you are not moderately fit, we recommend you get the help of a porter so that you can track without having to carry the few essential items listed below in your day pack. The porters are from the local community and very used to the local conditions and can assist in pushing, pulling and supporting you during your trek to the gorillas. They usually come at an additional fee over and above your safari cost ranging from approximately USD15-20 per porter per day as a fee with additional tipping being optional.

What to pack for a Successful Gorilla Trekking Experience

  • Plenty of water – 1-2 liters per person (most lodges provide the water, but we also have it in the car)
  • High energy snacks in addition to your packed lunch provided by the lodge/camp
  • Spare film and batteries for videos and cameras
  • Gloves (gardening type are good)
  • Waterproof bag to protect photographic equipment
  • Hiking gaiters
  • A hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, and band-aids might be useful
  • A lightweight waterproof jacket/poncho
  • Walking sticks are made available at the start of the trek for some of the steeper and more slippery tracks and may prove to be very handy.

The age limit for gorilla trekking is 15 years and the authorities are very strict on this! With special written permission, however, a 14yr old might pass.
