Something Dramatic is about to unfold....
As the month of June progresses, it is the
time when everybody is wide eyed, waiting in excited anticipation for the
thrilling phenomenon - The Wildebeest Migration.
From now till October, someting magical
happens in East Africa.
The Wildebeest, some one and half million of
them, migrate from Tanzania to Kenya in search of water and tender grasses. It
won't be long before the Wildebeest will amass in their millions at the banks
of River Mara which is rife with notorious Nile Crocodile, raging currents and
awaiting predators.
Watching this Great Spectacle is "once is
a life time experience" along with Camping experience .........
Camping in Africa is a great chance to get up close and personal with nature in a safe, yet enjoyable setting. Camping is an exciting experience and one that you’ll enjoy, no matter what your comfort level and preferences are. Imagine falling asleep under the stars, and waking the next day to the cool morning air with the sunrise softly streaming into the tent. The birds are calling, and you listen to the sounds of the world as it slowly starts to awake…
