Why Most Travelers Miss the Great Wildebeest Migration
Every year, thousands of travelers fly into Kenya hoping to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration — yet many leave disappointed. Not because the migration didn’t happen… But because they were in the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the wrong guide.
Seeing the migration isn’t about luck. It’s about local expertise, timing, and positioning.
Arriving at the Wrong Time
The migration isn’t a single event. River crossings depend on rainfall, grass conditions, and animal movement, not fixed dates sold online.
Crowded, Rushed Game Drives
Large tour groups follow rigid schedules, arriving late to crossings or competing with dozens of vehicles for the same view.
No Local Decision-Making
Many operators rely on generic itineraries, not real-time knowledge of animal behavior and daily movement patterns. No
Missed Photography Opportunities
Without proper positioning, timing, and patience, photographers miss the dramatic moments that define the migration.
