Gondwana Ecotours recently launched a new 10-day Great Migration Serengeti Safari that takes travelers into the heart of Tanzania’s wilderness.
The Serengeti Great Migration is the annual movement of more than 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras and other grazing animals across the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem in Tanzania and Kenya. Driven by seasonal rains, herds follow fresh grass and water, creating one of the planet’s most dramatic wildlife spectacles.

The migration runs from around April or May through summer and early autumn, with peak viewing typically between July and October. Gondwana Ecotours’ itinerary is timed to maximize sightings while respecting animal movements and seasonal conditions.
The safari is built around low-impact travel principles to reduce environmental footprints. Activities are planned to operate sustainably and support the Serengeti’s fragile ecosystem. As part of the experience, guests have the rare opportunity to visit a Maasai village that Gondwana Ecotours uniquely accesses, providing an authentic cultural exchange.

Visitors are welcomed into the village to learn about the Maasai’s close relationship with the land, their long-standing traditions and their role in community-based conservation. The visit is designed to be respectful and educational, offering meaningful interaction without disrupting daily life.
Gondwana Ecotours directs a meaningful share of tour revenue to local nonprofits that focus on sustainable development and conservation. The company also prioritizes sourcing from local businesses and collaborating with micro-enterprises and nonprofits to strengthen a community-driven tourism economy.
Specializing in guided, small-group tours, Gondwana Ecotours offers expert-led journeys to remarkable destinations worldwide, with an emphasis on responsible travel that benefits people and places alike.
