Overview
East Africa's safari circuit — the Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Amboseli — represents the planet's most concentrated and spectacular wildlife viewing. July through October brings the Great Migration north through the Mara Triangle: over a million wildebeest crossing the Mara River in one of nature's most dramatic spectacles. Meridian moves members through three camps across the circuit, combining game drives at dawn with walking safaris, fly camping under the stars, and cultural evenings with the Maasai communities that manage much of the land.

Concierge Note
“River crossing sightings during the Migration are unpredictable. We position members in the Mara Triangle for 4 nights — longer than most itineraries — to maximize the odds without watching from a convoy of 40 vehicles.”
