View our excellent 9 days wildebeest river crossing safari, which features wildebeest crossing from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara across the Mara River.
The Wildebeest Migration is an annual movement of over two million wildebeest, zebra, topi, and antelope from Tanzania’s enormous Serengeti Plains to Kenya’s lush, rolling Masai Mara grasslands. The 1,800-mile voyage is difficult and exhausting, and many animals perish at the hands of lions, leopards, and cheetahs in Africa, not to mention the crocodiles that wait each year for the first wildebeest to cross the Grumeti and Mara Rivers. It is nothing short of astounding to witness the sheer number of animals involved in the wildebeest migration, as well as the drama and activity that this remarkable natural display inspires.
