Masai Mara is one of Kenya’s most visited and richest game reserve with a huge density of wildlife including the big five. It is also famous for the great wildebeest migration that occurs annually. The great migration involves the wildebeest, zebra and gazelle instinct led movement from the Serengeti in Tanzania around July to the Masai Mara in Kenya and then departing around November. This journey is coupled by numerous obstacles which makes it even more magnificent.
