Wildebeest Migration Kenya

This is a perfect safari for a guest who wants to experience the beauty and drama of the migration in elegance and style. The Maasai Mara National Reserve is also considered to be the seventh natural wonder of the world where the migration happens every year between july and October. During this great migration, over 2 million wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles trek from the Serengeti plains in Tanzania right through the reserve in search of water and pasture. Visiting Maasai Mara during the Migration Season is the ultimate way of experiencing the last multi-species migration on the planet. During this period, the iconic plains of the Mara transform into a migration route providing you with an opportunity to see more than a million wildebeest, zebras, and antelopes grazing across the rolling plains of the epic Maasai Mara and Serengeti Parks.
