WHAT IS THE ‘GREAT MIGRATION’?
Between July to October-November (depends on the year), the world famous ‘Great Migration’
reaches the Masai Mara ecosystem from the Serengeti when over 2 million animals – zebra and gnu are the most prominent – head north and cross the Mara river in huge herds to search for
water and fresh grass. The biggest misconception, however, is that the migration is only about the river crossing. Driving through the plains during this period, you will bear witness to thousands upon thousands of wildebeest and zebra; a truly astonishing sight. This far-reaching vision also makes up the ‘Great Migration’. It’s the greatest natural show on earth and if you can visit Saruni Mara or Saruni Wild during this period, you’ll go back home with once-in-a- lifetime memories.
