One traveller summed up the appeal of the Great
Migration: “This is the
total sensory experience holiday. Your senses are constantly stimulated by the
sights, smells and sounds of the Mara and its many inhabitants. The thrill of
leaving camp at dawn, in search of zebras and wildebeests herds and the big cats is an experience that is difficult
to forget.”.......

The
wildebeest calving season has started - in fact the first babies
appeared around mid/late January and it is in full swing now. This is where
