We ended our trip with three days in the Maasai Mara. Westminster Safaris, which ran our camp in Oloika, set up a terrific camp for us in the Mara. The tents were comfortable (complete with a real bed and en suite shower!), the food delicious, and the staff fantastic.

The annual wildebeest migration enters Kenya in mid- to late summer, depending on the quality of grass. Half a million zebra, nearly 2 million wildebeest and another half million other animals make their way from Tanzania to Kenya and back over the course of the year. We were too early for the migration in the Mara, but caught the very front lines:

Our expert spotters, Sengali and Lanyonyera, also known as Dennis and Robin.
