Game viewing is good all year round on a Masai Mara safari in Kenya, although this region is most famous for its annual great migration (July-October.) An extraordinary event, the Great Migration involves a mass movement of ungulates, most notably the Wildebeest.

Near the beginning of July every year vast numbers of these creatures move en-masse from the southern plains of the Serengeti in Tanzania to cross Crocodile-filled Mara River and head north in search of lush green grasses after the rains. It is estimated that more than half a million Wildebeest enter the reserve each year, followed by large numbers of Zebra and opportunistic predators.

Survivors of this initial journey will then return south around October to the now-greener pastures of Tanzania, leaving the dusty plains of the Masai Mara to rejuvenate with the onset of the short rains in November.
