June is an excellent time to visit the eastern plains of the Serengeti. It’s when the annual Great Migration of wildebeest, antelope and zebra begins, where these majestic animals turn toward the Western Corridor and Grumeti River before making their way to Kenya’s Maasai Mara.

Naturally, you’ll want the best possible safari experience and views to mark this momentous occasion. In the heart of Tsavo West National Park, Finch Hattons provides guests with magnificent views of Mount Kilimanjaro and its legendary Kibo and Mawenzi peaks. This luxury tented camp includes a stargazing dinner deck where the peaks are plainly in view. Game drives come with multiple opportunities to observe zebras, elephants, giraffes, lions and other creatures who live within the landscape of undulating savannahs, volcanic rises, river valleys and thick forests.

On the wide plains of Tanzania on the Serengeti’s western corridor, Singita Grumeti offers the choice of four luxury properties and one mobile camp. The hilltop location of Sasakwa Lodge affords views of the plains, along with bush walks and a selection of rejuvenating wellness treatments. Near a waterhole by the Grumeti River frequented by area wildlife, Faru Faru Lodge provides an up-close nature experience.
