A lot of 8 Days Best Kenya Safari Holiday adventure lies ahead of you on this day. You will start your day with morning breakfast before you set off to enjoy game drives in the Maasai Mara game reserve that will include a visit to the Mara River. Where thousands of wildebeests and zebras are attacked by crocodiles as they attempt to cross this mighty river during the annual migration between Tanzania and Kenya.

This phenomenon entirely depends on the seasons as they migrate during the rainy season. Therefore the position of these mighty animals depends on the rains at the time you are visiting but your 8 Days Best Kenya Safari Holiday guide will know where to find them as he is well versed with their movements.

The annual migration sees over a million wild animals moving from Serengeti National Park in Northern Tanzania to Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. A chance to meet the traditional Maasai people, interactions and cultural exposure is very evident. You will wind up your day with dinner and an overnight stay at the camp.
