Good news! You can enjoy “the Great Migration any time of year, from December, January, February and March is “CALVING SEASON”. April, May and Early June is “THE TREK NORTH AND THE RUT.” In Late June and July its “THE GREAT MIGRATION” and it continues through to August, September and October.

Often referred to as ‘The Greatest Show on Earth,’ it is no wonder that the thousands of guests who flock to Kenya and Tanzania each year in the hopes of seeing this natural event arrive with big expectations! With up to 1,000 animals per kilometers squared, the great columns of wildebeest can even be seen from space. Because the Great Migration can only be experienced in Kenya and Tanzania, these serve as more unique safari destinations than the more standard safaris in southern African destinations. The sought-after safari travel experience gets visitors up close to view animals in an age-old migratory pattern. Since it happens year-round, there’s never a dull moment and visitors receive an up-close experience at any time of year.

The Great Migration takes place in some of the most wildlife-dense regions on the planet: the Serengeti and Masai Mara. It provides opportunities to see wildebeest, zebra, topi, Grant’s gazelle, Thomson’s gazelle, eland and impala. You can think of the animals as two groups: the travelers and the locals. Wildebeest and zebra are the migratory, and the other animals live in the territory that the migration passes through. Beyond the unique dramatic
spectacle of the huge herd of animals moving across the continent, you also see an immense variety of plains game, predators, river-based animals and birds.
The predator-prey relationship is on active display. The migration passes through lion, leopard and cheetah territories, providing Hunting scenes. When crossing the river, wildebeest fight with crocodile in the water, while other predators wait on the plains attempting to ambush the game. During calving season, predators are attracted from far and wide as they seek the chance of easy pickings. The miracle of birth is also observable, as you can witness calves being dropped and learning to walk and run within minutes.

PREDATORS ARE ATTRACTED FROM FAR AND WIDE
AS THEY SEEK THE CHANCE OF
EASY PICKINGS..

The calving: An estimated 400,000 calves are born which can draw a staggering number of predators eager to pray on the vulnerable young.
APRIL
The trek north: Herds move slowly northwards to fresh
grazing.
MAY – JUNE
The rut: May is the mating season but still the journey continues, some herds move west towards the Grumeti River, and this is the first point on the route
where river crossings can be seen.
JULY – OCTOBER
River crossings: The river crossings usually start in July, but the timing all depends on the rains. Although never guaranteed, crossings can regularly be seen at the Mara and Talek rivers.

Since the Great Migration is an eternal annual cycle from place to place, year in and year out, there is no single time of year to experience it. However, depending on either the aspect of the Great Migration you want to witness
(such as river crossings), or the time of year that you prefer to travel, your
safari can be tailored to give you the best chance of seeing what you desire.

Calving Season

Around December or January each year, the migration finishes a southward trek, moving along the eastern edge of the Serengeti and into the Ngorongoro
Conservation Area. Here the plains are rich in nutritious grass, providing the herds with the best conditions for raising their newborn calves. Although there is no real beginning or end to this migratory circuit — other than birth and death — it seems reasonable to call the wildebeests’ birthing season the start of the migration. Around late January or February, the herds occupy the short-grass plains that spread over the lower northern slopes of the Ngorongoro Crater highlands and around Olduvai Gorge. Some 400,000 calves are born here within a period of two to three weeks, or nearly 8,000 new calves every day. The abundance of vulnerable young calves means the surrounding predators also spring into action, hunting with ease due to the sheer numbers of wildebeest.

THE TREK NORTH AND THE RUT

April

As the rains come to an end and the ground dries, the herds start making
their way north into the central Serengeti where the grass is still fresh and they can graze and tend to their young, drawing with them thousands of zebra
and smaller groups of antelope. Moving slowly, they graze as they go, making the most of the fresh grass.

May

By May, impressive columns of wildebeest stretch for several kilometres as the animals start to congregate by the Moru Kopjes, close to Dunia Camp, one of the few camps in the Serengeti that offers migration viewing at this time of year. Mating season begins toward the end of May and male wildebeest battle head-to-head. Throughout ‘the rut,’ the journey continues at leisure with the wildebeest and zebra grazing as they go along.

First half of June

Gradually, the movement gathers momentum and the wildebeest start to mass in the Serengeti’s Western Corridor. At this time of year, the wildebeest face their first challenge of crossing the crocodile-infested Grumeti River. The herds form in huge numbers along the pools and channels of the river, which they have to cross in order to continue on their journey. This may not be as spectacular as the famous Mara crossings, but there are still enough wildebeest to provide The Grumeti crocodiles with a veritable feast. It is worth noting that since May and June are low season at many camps, this time offers lower accommodation rates, since there are relatively low numbers of tourists in the
Serengeti, yet the wildlife viewings remain excellent.

BATTLE HEAD TO HEAD

RIVER CROSSING SEASON BEGINS

The herds head toward the north of the Serengeti. The river crossings, considered by some to be the most exciting events of the Great Migration, usually start in July, but timing all depends on the rains.

June

During June, the dry season starts with large concentrations of wildebeest in the western Serengeti and on the southern banks of the Grumeti River. Each migrating animal must face the challenge of crossing the river, filled with
crocodiles — the first of many daunting and tense river encounters.

July

As June moves into July, the migration gathers momentum and huge herds of wildebeest can be seen spread out across the Western Corridor as they continue the journey north. These hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra move along the western edge of the park toward an even riskier barrier: the Mara River in the north of the Serengeti. These river crossings are arguably one of the most exciting wildlife events on Earth. They usually begin at the onset of high season in July, but timing all depends on nature. The herds will typically be found in the northern Serengeti in the month of July, where access s provided by Kilimanjaro classic safari’s two mobile migration camps as well as Sayari Camp (enviably positioned as the closest camp to the Mara River crossing points in the northern Serengeti). Later in July, those animals that have successfully made it across the Mara River will also be found in Kenya’s Masai
Mara, where guests of Rekero Camp can watch river crossings right from the main deck of the camp. At this time, daily river crossings can be seen at the Mara and Talek rivers, both often central to incredible scenes.

River crossing continues

August

By August, the herds have faced the challenge of crossing the Mara River and
are spread throughout the Masai Mara’s northern region, with many remaining
in the northern Serengeti. In years when the river is in full flow, the panic and
confusion at the crossings combined with waiting predators and surging
currents — can cause massive loss of life. Many will perish but the thousands of calves that are born more than make up the numbers. Nevertheless, in years of relatively gently flowing water, the crocodile take their toll, not to mention
the lion and other large predators that patrol the banks, ready to ambush any wildebeest that make it to the other side. There is no single crossing: at some spots, there are just a few individuals, while others see a mass of animals
moving without break for hours.

September

By September/October, the main chaos has ended and the migrating columns have gradually moved eastward. The herds are mostly concentrated in the Maasai Mara in Kenya, the northernmost range of the trek, but many still remain in the Serengeti.

October

The wildebeest face the swollen waters of the Mara River once more as they
prepare to cross again on their return journey back south. One of the best
views of the herds migrating out of Kenya across the treacherous Mara River can be found at Baobab luxury tented camp

Calving season begins

November:

After the East African short rains in late October and early
November, the wildebeest move down from Kenya and into
the rejuvenated grasses and eastern limits of the Serengeti
past Namiri Plains, an area known for outstanding cheetah
sightings.

December

By December, the wildebeest are spread throughout the eastern and southern reaches. The Southern Plains are lush with fresh, sweet grasses for the wildebeest to graze on. The areas around Ndutu and the northern Ngorongoro
Conservation Area are where the herds will spend some time enjoying the abundant grazing in preparation for the birth of the new calves in the early months of the new year. The cycle continues as the calving season starts once again

ARE LUSH WITH FRESH
SWEET GRASSES

Plan ahead

Viewing the Great Migration is one of the most popular requests for East African safari itineraries. To secure your first choice of accommodation in your preferred location, you may need to book your trip 12-18 months in advance.

Budget appropriately

River crossings occur during peak season — typically the most expensive months to go on safari. Consider a starting price for a basic safari at US$800 per person, per night (accommodation cost only, excludes park fees). An alternative approach is to travel outside of the high season, which has its own advantages. This time of year will still offer the Great Migration, but costs will lower to around
US$600 per person, per night (accommodation cost only, excludes park fees), and the parks will have fewer tourists and vehicles.

Set aside time

To improve the likelihood of seeing the herds, you will want to spend time in more than one location, so make sure your trip is long enough to do so. We’d recommend staying at two to three camps for a few nights each, and choosing good combinations where the transfers between the camps can be practical and even an enjoyable part of the experience

Consider a private vehicle

Surprisingly, not everyone who is on safari will be interested in seeing the migration. If you share a vehicle with other travelers who have different interests, you might need to compromise with what they’d like to do and see.
With a private vehicle, you’ll have total flexibility. If you want to spend the full day camped out at the river waiting for a crossing, you can do so without having to consider anyone else.

Most importantly, get advice from a safari expert

There are many ways to see the Great Migration, and each traveller will have their own unique requirements around what they would like to see and how they like to travel. An experienced safari expert can save you hours of time sifting through overwhelming amounts of information to help you narrow down your best options. On the ground experts, like the ones at Kilimanjaro classic safari’s, have years of experience coordinating incredible safaris.
Kilimanjaro classic safari’s has a combination of sales and ground operations, so our sales teams are in daily conversation with our expert guides and camp staff who live in the area. Lean on experts to advise you and help you book. Beyond getting the best advice on accommodation and regions to visit, the logistics of a safari, such as park permits and arranging regional flights and transfers, are
also best arranged through local operators.

How tall is Mount Kilimanjaro?

Uhuru Peak, the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, stands tall at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet). Yet, this doesn’t mean you’ll be starting your climb from the very base. Most hotels near Kilimanjaro are at an altitude of 700-1,000 meters above sea level. The trailheads begin at elevations of 1,600 meters and above.

Due to its altitude, Mt Kilimanjaro is among the few places in East Africa to see snow. The snow-capped peak of Kilimanjaro is truly a sight to behold!

We believe that after seeing it, Ernest Hemingway decided to name his famous story “The Snows of Kilimanjaro.” The title refers to the distant peak of Mount Kilimanjaro. It represents the unattainable, and the purity of idealist motives. In the story’s conclusion, the protagonist dreams of being taken to the summit of Kilimanjaro, symbolizing redemption.

• Climbing to the Summit
  Climbing to Kibo peak takes 5 – 9
  days depending on the route.
  Seven mountain trails can take a climber to the mountain peak, each
  route offering different attractions and challenges.
• Mountain Cycling
  On two wheels tourist has a chance of cycling to the roof of
  Africa. There are two routes which are used for cycling, one
  for summit bound visitors (Kilema route) and second one for
  non summit visitors (Shira plateau).
• Crater Camping
  Camping in the crater provides unique visitors’ night experience. While at the crater tourists can visit the unique bench-shaped like glaciers, the formation that can only be found at Mount Kilimanjaro
• Paragliding
• parachutes or wingsuits while undertaking this activity. Tourists can fly from the top of Mount Kilimanjaro and may use
• Mawenzi Technical Climbing
  Mawenzi is the second highest peak on Mount Kilimanjaro.
  Technical climbers can hike the present seven sub-peaks while
  enjoying the view of cliffs, complexity of gullies and rock
  faces.
• Non summit tourism activities
  includes, visit to the water falls, walking on nature trails, visiting maundi
  crater and cultural sites such as kifinika [in the park] and cultural camps
  in the villages around.

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is a year-round experience. At Kilimanjaro classic safaris, we provide expert advice on the best time for you to plan your Kilimanjaro trip based on your individual requirements.

The two main climbing seasons are the dry months from December to March and from June to October. The warmest months are from December to March. During these months the skies are clearer and there is less chance of snow on the trail. February is the best month since the temperature is high and the chances of rainfall are low. From June to October, the temperatures on the mountain are noticeably colder and the trails are busier.

During the rainy season, it can be wet, slippery and the visibility may be limited. Most climbers avoid these seasons, although some experienced climbers and adventurous travellers prefer to climb at this time. There are certainly some pros: a lack of crowds being a big draw!

Climbing Kilimanjaro is moderately challenging but achievable for the average person. With a reputable climbing operator and sufficient time for acclimatization, reaching the summit is possible for most climbers

Yes, Kilimanjaro is accessible to beginners with little or no trekking experience. With some prior training and a good climbing tour, your chances of conquering Kilimanjaro will be very high.

Tanzania has two rainy seasons and two dry seasons. The short rainy season begins in early November and lasts until late December. It is followed by the dry season, which lasts until mid-March. Then the season of long rains begins, ending in mid-June.

You should consider the northern slopes to climb Kilimanjaro during the rainy season. According to the data we received from the Tanzania Meteorological Authority, this part of the mountain receives five times less rainfall. Good Kilimanjaro routes to choose from are Rongai, Northern Circuit, and Marangu.

One should also remember that the period from June to October in East Africa is marked by cold nights. At the high altitudes of Kilimanjaro, the nights will be pretty chilly. Make sure you have everything from our packing list.

On a Kilimanjaro trek with Kilimanjaro classic safari’s, every climber receives a balanced diet designed specifically for the mountain environment. Our specialized menu is rich in calories and carbs to provide you with ample energy necessary for successfully climbing Kilimanjaro.

For breakfast, we serve porridge, pancakes, fruit, eggs, sausages, and toast with jam. Lunch or dinner options include delicious soups like butternut, tomato, leek, vegetable, and beef, potato dishes, spaghetti, chicken, stews, fresh vegetable salads, and avocado. All meal courses are served with delicious sauces and dressing. For dessert, we have mangoes, bananas, pineapple, and oranges. They give you important vitamins and minerals. Coffee and tea are always available in the camp.

We also have extended meal plans for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free climbers. We will do our best to accommodate other diets also.

Throughout the climb, your group will frequently pause for tea with biscuits. Nonetheless, climbing Kilimanjaro demands considerable energy. Hence, we recommend you bring snacks such as energy bars, dried fruits, and high-calorie treats. It’s preferable to purchase these at home. There might be a much broader variety of such products available in your country compared to Tanzania.

Our findings revealed that starting your climb on a Wednesday or Thursday reduces the crowds you will encounter. There are almost twice fewer climbers starting on these days compared to the rest of the week.

Additionally, we discovered that the Rongai route has eight times fewer climbers than the popular Machame route. Thus, by climbing Kilimanjaro on Thursday and opting for the Rongai route, you’ll encounter nearly 16 times fewer people on your climb to Uhuru Peak.

Climbing Kilimanjaro is subject to the regulations of the Kilimanjaro National Park. The official rules dictate that a local guide must accompany all hikers. Rangers at the park will not permit entry to anyone without a professional Kilimanjaro guide.

Also, venturing up to the Roof of Africa solo involves certain risks. During the summit night in the peak zone, one may succumb to altitude sickness or get injured. If needed, the guides will assist with evacuations and other emergencies.

Finally, climbing Kilimanjaro is more than merely a physical challenge. On this journey, you will learn about Kilimanjaro’s plants, animals, history, and traditions. The guides will also share vibrant stories of the communities living in the shadow of the mountain.

Anyone planning to climb Kilimanjaro should keep the park entrance fees in mind. As of today, they come at $154 per day per hiker. This amount includes several types of fees:

• ‘Conservation fees’ are for staying in the National Park and enjoying its nature.
• ‘Camping fees’, or ‘hut fees’ on the Marangu route. – The fees for pitching the tents or sleeping in the Marangu wooden cabins during the climb.
• ‘Crew fees’ – there is a small charge for each crew member entering the National Park to support you on the trek.
• ‘Rescue fee’ – this is a sort of mandatory ‘insurance’ payment. The hikers pay it to use the Kilimanjaro rescue cars. Please keep in mind that this is not a substitute for a real insurance package.

Don’t worry about the park fees when planning your trip. Tour operators include them in the overall price of climbing Kilimanjaro and we will pay them to the park authorities on your behalf. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with Kilimanjaro classic safari’s you can be sure that we will take care of every detail.

A typical day on Kilimanjaro begins early, around 6:30 to 7:00 AM. Our porters will greet you with a fresh cup of tea or coffee, delivered right to your tent. Afterward, you’ll have time for your morning routine, with warm water prepared by our team for washing up and cleaning your teeth at the campsite.

Around 7:30 to 8:00 AM, you’ll be invited to breakfast by our staff. Once fueled up, the day’s trek to the next camp begins. This journey usually takes between 4 to 6 hours. Our support team will arrive at the camp ahead of you, ensuring lunch is ready upon your arrival.

After lunch and a bit of rest, your guides will suggest a short acclimatization hike—a brief, hour-long walk designed to help your body adjust to the altitude. We highly recommend you join, as these exercises are key to preparing for the ultimate challenge: reaching the summit.

Upon returning from the acclimatization hike, you’ll have some downtime before dinner, which will be served around 7:00. The evening is yours to relax, chat with fellow climbers, and take in the breathtaking surroundings. Before bedtime, there will be a mandatory health check to ensure everyone is adapting well. Lights out is usually between 9:00 and 10:00 PM.

This routine is followed almost every day, except for the night of the summit attempt.

The time it takes to climb Kilimanjaro depends on the route chosen. Most expeditions last 6 to 8 days. An experienced hiker with prior acclimatization usually climbs Kilimanjaro through an accelerated 5-day program. If you stay overnight in the crater, Kilimanjaro climbs can take 9 days or longer.

Among the Seven Summits, the Kilimanjaro trek is one of the shortest. For example, climbing Mount Everest takes 6-9 weeks, Denali and Aconcagua- 2-3 weeks. Climbing Kilimanjaro takes about one week only.

Additionally, for those who only have a couple of days and want to get a taste of Kilimanjaro, it’s possible to go on a Kilimanjaro Day Hike.

There are seven different Kilimanjaro climbing routes to choose from, each with various pros and cons to suit the capabilities of the hiker. They all differ in length, difficulty, scenery, traffic, accommodation and a myriad of varying factors.

The Tanzania Specialist team are experts at defining the best route for your journey, taking all the hassle out of your once-in-a-lifetime trip in Africa. With hundreds of successful summits under our belt from clients from all over the world, we take time to listen to your group’s specific needs and requirements when organising your Kilimanjaro climb. The most popular routes with our clients are the Machame Route, Maranga Route or Lemosho route.

Machame Route

Also known as the “Whiskey Route”, Kilimanjaro’s Machame Route is one the most popular climbing routes in Tanzania. Better yet, this route has a fantastically high success rate. The route has a gradual ascend which gives your body more time to adjust to the altitude. The trail circles around the mountain, offering up spectacular views and a wide variety of landscapes.

During this route, you will walk through the green rainforest to the amazing Shira Plateau. The last ascent to the crater rim at Stella Point is probably the most challenging part of this route and does require at least a basic level of fitness.

How long the Machame Route takes is up to you! It can be done in 6 or 7 days and, in our experience, there is a much higher chance of submitting Africa’s largest mountain on a 7-day Kilimanjaro hike!

PRO: The Machame Route is less expensive than most of the others, due to its shorter route and easy access

CON: This route can be quite busy, especially during the peak season

Marangu Route

This route, nicknamed the “Coca-Cola” route, has a reputation for being one of the easiest paths on the mountain. Though it is certainly the shortest route on the mountain, this does not necessarily mean it is the easiest! As this is a shorter route, your body has less time to acclimatize properly, increasing the chances of fatigue and ultimately decreasing the chances of reaching the summit on this route.

Some climbers prefer this route because of the hut accommodation, in contrast to camping in tents as is seen on the majority of other mountain treks. Unfortunately, this also means less privacy! (Plus, there’s nothing like camping out under African skies!). The Marangu Route is the best for those on a budget and is one of the cheapest routes to reach the top of Kilimanjaro.

PRO: The Marangu Route is one of the cheapest and quickest Mount Kilimanjaro routes. This route also offers hut accommodation in dorm rooms – a benefit for those looking to stay away from camping!

CON: This route can be quite busy, especially during the peak season. As you will do the same trail for your descent as you did for your ascent, you get to see less of the spectacular scenery!

Lemosho Route

The Lemosho Route is a beautiful and unique route, known for its breathtaking views. In contrary to other Mount Kilimanjaro climbing routes, it starts on the western side of Kilimanjaro. Because of this, the Leomosho Route is less crowded with climbers and offers a much more secluded hiking experience.

Better yet, the Lemosho trail is completely unspoiled, making for a breathtakingly beautiful adventure up to the famous Shira Plateau. After a few days, the Lemosho Route joins the Machame Route at Lava Tower. You can do this route in 7 or 8 days, and it does require a decent level of fitness!

CONS: Lemosho is undoubtedly a more expensive route – it’s a long trail and requires extra transport to the other side of the mountain.

PROS: The price is definitely worth it! The Lemosho route gives climbers plenty of time to acclimatize properly, the views are spectacular and the success rates to reach the summit are high. This is one of the most beautiful and complete routes to climb Kilimanjaro.

The costs for climbing Kilimanjaro depend on the route you choose. We work with our clients to create custom Kilimanjaro itineraries for a wide range of budgets – from shoestring to bespoke luxury. Aside from tour operator costs, other expenses to consider include:

• Buying the right equipment: think walking poles, hiking boots, waterproof daypack, breathable clothing etc.
• Travel insurance for climbing Kilimanjaro. You can also choose an additional flying doctors insurance.
• Tipping guides and porters: the porters and guides work very hard – often for little money. Tipping on Kilimanjaro is standard and helps support the local community.
