Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer!

Seeing one of nature’s biggest wonders – the Wildebeest migration is truly a spectacular sight witnessed by a lucky few. Counted among the Seven Wonders of the World, this overwhelming natural phenomenon is something you can experience with only your own eyes. If you are a nature enthusiast looking for an experience that will change travelling forever, head down to Kenya and Tanzania and watch nature in its full and unforgiving glory!

The Great Migration Updates (River of Life or River of Death):

The Wildebeests walked miles and miles from Tanzania through some big African Lion’s pride and passes through many danger zones of natural predators i.e. Cheetahs, Leopard, Hyenas etc… finally reached the river (border between Kenya and Tanzania). The grass is indeed greener on the other side, for greener pasture, millions of wildebeest crossed the river….

Wildebeest at Maasai Mara

In the struggle to cross the Mara River, many are drowned or swept away by strong currents. The crossing attracts crocodiles who each year wait for the season’s bounty. Lions are frequently seen attacking the herds especially at night dragging down weaker individuals. At the same time, packs of Hyena weave throughout the herds, singling out and separating the young and the weak. By September the herds have reached their destination spreading out to graze across the Mara.
