Day 4: Serengeti Safari
Every year, over two million wildebeest and zebra migrate north from the Serengeti National Park to the Masai Mara Reserve in Kenya. The herds must brave the perilous Mara River which runs through the Masai Mara Game Reserve on the Kenyan side and the Serengeti National Park on the Tanzanian side. They face treacherous water currents and dangerous predators as they cross the river in search of greener pastures. With crocodiles lurking in the muddy waters and lions, cheetahs, leopards and hyenas patrolling the river banks, this is a particularly dangerous time to be a wildebeest or a zebra!
If you’re visiting the Serengeti at the right time you’ll see herds of wildebeest and zebra stretching to the horizon and you may be lucky enough to see the dramatic river crossings. Tanzania Kenya Experts have in-depth experience of the migration and they will plan your holiday to ensure that you’re at the right place at the right time.
