ClassicGreat Migration Explorer
Seven days tracking the herds across the Maasai Mara at river-crossing season, with private guiding and luxury tented camps.
Maasai Mara
Kenya’s most celebrated reserve — big cats, open plains, and the Great Migration.
The Maasai Mara is Kenya’s flagship reserve: rolling savannah dotted with flat-topped acacia, the highest big-cat density in Africa, and — between July and October — the raw drama of the Great Migration.
It rewards first-timers and veterans alike. The reserve itself delivers the iconic scenes; the private conservancies on its borders add quiet game viewing, night drives, and walking safaris with far fewer vehicles.
We plan the Mara around light and movement: where the herds are, where the cats are denning, and where the crowds aren’t.
Why visit
- The Great Migration river crossings (July–October)
- Exceptional lion, leopard, and cheetah sightings all year
