3-Day Masai Mara Wildebeest Migration Safari – Kenya Adventure

Focus: Great Migration viewing • Big Five sightings • Full-day game drives
Vehicles: 4x4 Land Cruiser (pop-up roof) or safari minivan (max 6–7 guests)
Starts/Ends: Nairobi (hotel/city center/JKIA/Wilson)

Overview

Witness the world-famous Wildebeest Migration on an action-packed
3-day Masai Mara safari. Travel from Nairobi across the Great Rift Valley,
settle into a comfortable tented camp, and spend a full day along the Mara River
tracking herds, predators, and classic Big Five. You’ll stay at
Olmoran Tented Camp or Simba Oryx Camp (or similar),
for an authentic bush experience just minutes from the wildlife.

Peak migration months are typically July–October. Wildlife viewing is excellent year-round, but exact river crossings are natural events and cannot be guaranteed.
