The Great Migration
The Great Migration is one of the world’s most impressive natural spectacles. Between July and October, over 1.5 million wildebeest, accompanied by zebras and gazelles, move from Tanzania’s Serengeti into Kenya’s Masai Mara in search of fresh grazing.
Watching the dramatic river crossings — as predators lie in wait — is an unforgettable experience.
Book a front-row seat to the migration with our luxury safaris in Kenya.
