Kenya Tour: 5,6,7,8, Days Kenya Migration Safari Tour
Masai mara is known as the mecca of the greatest migration in the world. The masai mara is a continuous savannah grasslands with the larger Serengeti ecosystem. Masai mara is a virtual plain with undulating velds of unending grasslands. The whole area is more than 1500 sq km in size. It is in masai mara where the wildebeest migration moves northwards from Serengeti following the lure of the fresh pasture brought about by the rainfall patterns. Over 1,500,000 wildebeests, 500,000 zebras and more than 300,000 gazelles cross the plains in this annual migration fraught with dangers.
Your masai mara migration safari tour this year will start from the samburu national park in the
north of Kenya in what will be an 7-8 day epic safari. Samburu is a dry area
north of the equator which has very different animals from the Masai mara. You
have a 2 day sojourn in samburu where you will see the undulating hills and
great river Ewaso ngiro with its hundreds of crocodiles, elephants and many
other animals.
The Mount Kenya is your next
destination where you get to see Africa’s second highest mountain in its
majesty. The snow covered mt Kenya is a big attraction and a night in the mt Kenya
national park lodges will give you a completely different taste of montane
climate and see animals at night coming to drink at the water holes. This is
your best chance to see a leopard or a rhino at night.
Your next destination in the Kenya migration safari tour is the lake Nakuru which is a salty water lake located on the
floor of the rift valley. Lake Nakuru is singularly known for its over 2
million flamingos that flock its shores forming a pink ribbon that can be seen
from miles around. The flamingos are attracted here by the algal bloom which
thrives in these alkaline waters. There are other animals in this park
including tree-climbing lions, buffalos, rhinos and many others. This one night
safari trip is a bird watchers paradise and there are more than 400 species of
them in the lake.
The Masai mara is the climax of
your week long Kenya safari tour and you will be here for three days and 2
nights or more. Your trip is timed such that you get to the Masai mara at
exactly the time that the wildebeest migration is at its peak. You will stay in
one of the most respected lodges and have atleast 2 game drives a day following
the migration across the Masai mara plains.
Mara river crossing is the
ultimate experience in this greatest East African Migration safari tour. The wildebeest
and zebras have to cross the mara river which by this time is full to the brim
with raging flood waters. Over 2000 of them die at each river crossing every
year thanks to the murderous stampede as they haste to escape the crocodiles
and the raging current. Many of them suffer broken limbs, spines and others
just drown. It’s a feast for the crocodiles. But that’s a small price to pay
for the wildebeest since by February of every year, over 300,000 new calves are
born in the plains of the Ngorongoro.
You can make arrangements early
for your 2013 Kenya wildebeest migration safari tour to ensure you get accommodation in some of

and sometimes as early as March to get accommodation. Get more details on how
