This is a superb time of the year for the river crossings of the Mara, which continue almost daily throughout this period. It is a quiet region with a few camps, making for an exclusive game-viewing area that is perhaps the best in the whole park.

Beschrijving van de reis

From August to October, the Mara River becomes the stage for one of nature’s most dramatic spectacles. During this period, herds gather along the riverbanks, and crossings take place almost daily, offering exceptional opportunities to witness the intensity and raw beauty of the Great Migration. This area remains relatively quiet, with only a limited number of camps operating nearby. The result is a far more exclusive safari experience, with fewer vehicles and uninterrupted wildlife encounters. Combined with the constant movement of the herds and the presence of predators along the river, it is widely regarded as one of the finest game-viewing locations in the entire park.
