Main attraction - the great migration!
A million wildebeest, each one driven by the same ancient rhythm, fulfilling its instinctive role in the inescapable cycle of life; a frenzied three week bout of territorial conquests and mating; survival of the fittest as 40 km long columns plunge through crocodile infested waters on the annual exodus north; replenishing the species in a brief population explosion that produces more than 8,000 calves daily before the 1000 km pilgrimage begins again.
Other Highlights!
-The Grassland savannah plains, predators (lions, leopards, cheetahs, etc.) big ostrich population, migratory birds, and so much more
Best time to visit; December to July, to follow the wildebeest migration, June to October to see predators.
