Tanzania Safari Destination Guide | Ker & Downey® Africa

ne of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, the Great Migration in Africa is one of the world’s most spectacular wildlife events to behold. Each year, 1.5 million untamed wildebeest, antelope and zebra migrate clockwise across the Serengeti and Masai Mara plains in search of green pastures and fresh drinking water. The migratory route is quite predictable, and follows a similar pattern each year, depending on the seasons and the availability of fresh drinking water and verdant pastures.. It is the largest herd movement in the world and is visible from space making it a top pick for every adventurer’s bucket list. O 08
