With this 8 days Grumeti and wildebeest migration safari, a Grumeti safari involves more than just wildlife, though. The majority of the alternative safari activities, most of which are not permitted in the main reserve, include guided nature walks, night drives, and hot-air ballooning. Guides are authorized to drive off-road for up-close wildlife sightings. Mix a traditional big game safari with secluded luxury lodging. Privately owned Singita Grumeti Reserves, which border the Western Serengeti and are located directly on the path of the wildebeest migration, provide guests exclusive access to the activity.
