During these months, the wildebeest herds are typically found in the northern Serengeti, including the Kogatende area, as they attempt to cross the Mara River. This period is renowned for dramatic river crossings, where predators often lie in wait. The weather is generally sunny with less humidity, and the thinner vegetation makes wildlife spotting easier.

For travellers prioritising seeing the river crossings, late July to August and then again in October are often prime times. The exact timing of the crossings can vary year to year, as it's dependent on rainfall and the animals' instincts, but these months historically offer the highest chances.

Couples looking for an exceptional wildlife experience will find this period ideal.
