Hello Safari Enthusiasts,

Welcome to the first official issue of the Blue Zebra Safaris newsletter! We’re thrilled to have you on this journey with us as we explore Africa’s wild spaces, share insider expertise, and spotlight the people and wildlife that make our continent so extraordinary.

The Great Migration—What Every Safari Planner Should Know

Few natural events capture the imagination quite like the Great Migration. Each year, over two million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles thunder across the plains of East Africa, following ancient instincts in search of fresh grazing. But did you know that Southern Africa has its own migration marvels, too?

Key Insights for Travel Professionals:

• Timing is Everything: The classic Serengeti-Mara migration peaks between July and October, but Botswana’s zebra migration (the longest in Africa!) is best seen from November to March.
• Beyond the Herds: Migration isn’t just about movement—it’s about predator-prey drama, river crossings, and the resilience of life. Tailor your clients’ itineraries to witness these moments up close.
• Logistics Made Easy: We break down the best camps, mobile safaris, and air transfers to maximize your clients’ chances of witnessing these spectacles—without the crowds.

Pro Tip: Book early and consider shoulder seasons for a more exclusive, value-driven experience.
