| 15 DAY GORILLAS & MASAI MARA |
| Kampala to Nairobi |
Starting in Kampala and ending in Nairobi, this 15-day safari takes in what are the region's two major highlights; the magnificent Masai Mara Game Reserve and the opportunity to observe rare mountain gorillas in their natural habitat. The Virunga Volcanoes are their last refuge and we trek through dense forest for an audience with these gentle apes. The Masai Mara offers superb game viewing and pretty Lake Naivasha is home to hundreds of hippo.

| MASAI MARA |
The Wildebeest Migration in East Africa, also known as “The Great Migration” takes place between Kenya's Masai Mara and Tanzania's Serengeti National Park and is one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on the planet. Thousands of wildebeest and zebra’s migrate between the Serengeti and the Masai Mara, constantly driven by their search for fresh grazing. The massive herds are closely followed by predators (lion, hyena and cheetah), making the most of every opportunity to catch their next meal.
The precise timing of the annual wildebeest migration depends on the rains. It is a very unpredictable and spontaneous natural event, with calving season taking place in the Serengeti between January and mid-March. The wildebeest migration starts to head towards the Western Serengeti in May or June. |
