An excellent year round animal concentration and known for it's typical short savanna plains, this place is worth a visit. It is also home to the Great Migration in the months of July – October when two million wildebeest make their way northwards from the Serengeti in Tanzania.

4. Day 4 & 5: Masai Mara

   • Return for breakfast at the camp while the sun rises over the game reserve. 

   • Decide to take a packed lunch for a full day game drive or come back to the camp for a hot lunch. The secret to sighting a lot of animals is to do different game drives at different time and areas for the highest success rate.
