Masai-Mara/Serengeti Migration

The three-day Masai Mara Migration safari is an unforgettable experience that combines breathtaking scenery, fascinating wildlife, and an opportunity to witness one of the natural wonders of the world

The Masai Mara Migration is one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife events, taking place in the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. It is an annual event that occurs from July to October each year when over a million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle migrate from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Masai Mara in Kenya in search of fresh grazing lands.

The three-day Masai Mara Migration safari typically begins with a drive from Nairobi to the Masai Mara National Reserve, a journey of around 6 hours.

On the first day, visitors will have a chance to settle into their lodges or tented camps and take a game drive in the afternoon to see some of the resident wildlife such as lions, cheetahs, and elephants.

The second day of the safari is usually the highlight, as visitors will have the opportunity to witness the incredible spectacle of the migration firsthand. They will head out early in the morning and spend the entire day exploring the Masai Mara and following the migration. The wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle cross the Mara River during this time, and visitors will be able to witness the dramatic river crossings, as the animals struggle against strong currents and crocodile attacks.

On the third day, visitors will have one final game drive before departing back to Nairobi. The morning drive provides another opportunity to spot the Big Five (lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos) and other wildlife that inhabit the Masai Mara.

Overall, The three-day Masai Mara Migration safari is an unforgettable experience that combines breathtaking scenery, fascinating wildlife, and an opportunity to witness one of the natural wonders of the world
