Upon finishing your breakfast, you will head straight to the park, which is the icing on the cake for anyone doing a safari to Kenya and East Africa at large. If you visit between the months of July and September, you are sure to witness the great wildebeest migration, where over 2 million wildebeests, in the company of zebras, antelopes, etc, migrate from Tanzania into Kenya and back to Tanzania, crossing the Mara River in search of greener pastures. During this migration, predators, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, and hyenas, closely follow their prey and often take them down, followed by a feast for the predators. In the river, crocodiles also stay calm as they wait for the animals they hunt to cross.
At lunch time, you will enjoy it under one of the balanite trees, before proceeding on more game drives as you return to your lodge.
