The Great Migration: Nature’s Greatest Show
The Great Migration is the highlight of Masai Mara National Reserve. Every year, from July to October, over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles cross the Mara River from Tanzania’s Serengeti into Kenya’s Masai Mara.
The river crossings are dramatic, with predators such as crocodiles and lions waiting to ambush the herds. Witnessing this spectacle is one of the most unforgettable safari experiences in the world.
Join our luxury safaris in Kenya for front-row access to the migration.
