Extra Tip – The Great Migration

Every year between July to October the Great Migration takes place at Maasai Mara where millions of wildebeest, thousands of zebras, eland, gazelles, and other animals traverse from the Serengeti and make the dangerous attempt to cross the Mara River to reach the lush savannahs in search of greener pastures and water. It’s all about the food!

For years, drought has plagued parts of Africa, leading to a sharp decline in the availability of food. As a result, animals and birds that live in areas that are drought-prone have migrated toward areas with more resources resulting in the world’s greatest movement of animals. This epic natural phenomenon was recognized by UNESCO and Masai Mara’s ecosystem earned the status as one of the Seven Wonders Of The World. The Great Migration is an amazing spectacle; join us in this once-in-a-lifetime experience. A must-see for anyone visiting Kenya!
