Masai Mara Holiday Packages | Kenya Wildlife Migration Safari

Every year staring from the early July to late September, over a million wildebeests and Zebras followed by the big cats cross over the rolling plains of the Masai Mara setting the most spectacular marvel of mother nature that cannot be witnessed in any other part of the world. This undoubtedly becomes the best times to visit Africa.

The selected Safari will show you this and more. On this safari we will visit the premier parks and game reserves of Kenya. First we will head north to the lush forest of the Aberdare mountain range, where we will spend our time observing the many forest species that come to the waterhole.

From the Aberdare we will head north to the famous Samburu / Buffalo Springs game reserves. Here we will experience the beautiful dry northern country, which is home to wildlife only seen north of the equator: namely grevy's zebra, beisa oryx and reticulated giraffe. Other residents are gerenuk gazelle, the Somali ostrich, 'big five', and the more common savannah game.

From Samburu our journey now heads back south with one night spent at Sweetwaters luxury tented camp situated on the equator and one night Lake Nakuru national park famous for its spectacular bird life.

The last part of our safari takes us to Masai Mara, where the wildebeest migration will be taking place. Literally, millions of wildebeest and zebra move north from the plains of Tanzania's Serengeti savannah during July and August in search of the lush grass.

As the vegetation and water holes dry, the herds start the trek north. Following the rain pattern they cross the Tanzania/ Kenya border to the rich Kenyan Masai Mara in search of the 4,000 tons of grass they eat each day. By September and early October they start winding their way back to Tanzania. There are many Masai Mara holiday packages on offer
