Your unforgettable safari begins with an early morning pick-up(7am) from your hotel
in Nairobi. Meet your professional safari guide before departing in a private 4WD

August is the peak of the Great Wildebeest Migration, when hundreds of thousands of
wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles occupy the vast plains of the Masai Mara after
crossing from the Serengeti. The abundance of prey attracts large numbers of
predators, making this one of the most rewarding times for wildlife viewing. Keep
your camera ready as you search for elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, buffaloes,
giraffes, hyenas, and countless other wildlife species.
