7 Days Kenya Safari (The Great Wildebeest Migration)

Every year, the Great Migration, a natural phenomenon of unmatched magnitude occurs throughout the vast East African plains, especially in Kenya and Tanzania. You can witness this amazing phenomenon on this 7 days Kenya safari.

During the wildebeest migration, over two million wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores travel nearly 1,800 miles on a pilgrimage in pursuit of fresh water and greener pastures between Tanzania and Kenya, a sight to behold. This is fueled by the need for food and the cyclical patterns of rainfall.

Dramatic river crossings, in which thousands of wildebeest plunge into crocodile-infested waters in a risky but captivating display of survival, are what define this extraordinary event. The Great Migration is an example of the complex balance of nature, not just a show of wildlife.

Crossing Period (July to October);

The herds congregate on the banks of the Grumetia and Mara Rivers during these months, marking the most iconic stage of the migration. There are spectacular river crossings, where zebras and wildebeest brave crocodile-infested waters. Usually, the herds begin to move south once more by late October.

Other destinations to be visited on this 7 days Kenya safari include include Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Navaivaha.
