What we will tell you

  • What the herds are usually doing in your window — and how much the usual varies.
  • An honest read on crossing odds for your number of nights.
  • Whether your budget goes further in a different month, and by how much.
  • A plan that still works if the herds are two weeks late.

What we will never tell you

That you will see a crossing. Nobody can, and the operators who imply it are relying on you not knowing that.
