The migration of wildebeests while crossing the Mara River to Masai Mara Kenya is usually from late July to October. Thousands of wildebeests and zebras cross the river of course Mara River while heading to Masai Mara in Kenya as they look for green grasses since the rain will have started in the Mara River.
Thousands of zebras and wildebeests tend to cross the river but not all the time so if you don’t see it today you shouldn’t be worried because will still have tomorrow and the day after tomorrow which our very experienced driver should be able to show you at least once or twice within planned days.
