Wildebeest Migration
Over 1.5 million wildebeest, zebras and several species of antelope make an annual circular tour between the Serengeti in Tanzania and Masai Mara in Kenya in search of greener pastures. The trek happens with a fair share of animal drama as the migrating herds attract the attention of hungry predators – the hyenas and lions that prey on the lame and sick animals along the way. The animals trek for four months (July-October) towards the Mara.

Check out our Q&As

  • Are children permitted to take part in the tour?

    Yes, children are permitted to take part in the tour.

  • Are all entrance fees included in the price?

    Yes, entrance fees to Masai Mara National Reserve is included in the tour package cost.

  • Are airport transfers included in this tour?

    This can be arranged at an extra cost of 30 EUR

  • Money Exchange

    Do not exchange money on the street. You may be approached by someone willing to give you a 50% to 70% premium for your dollars. This is what is known as the black market. It is illegal. Do NOT, therefore, get involved. Hotels, Camps and Lodges can change money but sometimes their exchange rate is lower. There are several foreign exchange bureaux in Nairobi offering competitive rates. ...more ...less

  • Tipping

    Most people, when visiting a foreign country, like to be given some guidelines regarding tipping. Bearing in mind that tipping is an extremely personal matter, the below are mere guidelines. Ultimately, expectations are left to the discretion of the individual safari member. However, if in doubt, please check with either your hostess or host for advice. ...more ...less

  • Anti-malaria medication

    We strongly recommend that you take anti-malaria medication. Malaria is rare in most highland areas, but traveling in the hot bush, and coastal areas requires precautions. If, on your return home, you develop influenza symptoms, please see your doctor immediately as you may well have contracted malaria.

  • Credit cards

    Credit cards such as American Express, Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in most camps, hotels and lodges.

  • Punctuality

    Please be on time when you meet at your mini-vans or land cruisers for game drives.

  • Driver guide/safari guide

    Get to know both your driver-guide and your Safari guide. Their knowledge of Africa is a bottomless treasure of travel. Be friendly. Sometimes, at the outset of a safari, the driver-guides can be shy and need encouragement to open up. Ask a lot of questions. Don’t be afraid to make requests of both your driver-guide and your safari guide.

  • Clothing

    Safari attire is casual and comfortable. Dress mainly for outdoor comfort with a change of informal clothes for the evening. Evenings and early mornings can be chilly especially on the mountain areas. Warm jerseys, socks and walking shoes or sneakers are recommended. Footwear should be low-heeled and comfortable. There is not much walking and you stay in your vehicle during game runs. Bring a light-weight raincoat and a hat for sun protection. Roof hatches on safari vehicles are left open whilst game viewing. Although evening wear is informal, some Clubs and restaurants in Nairobi and on safari do require gentlemen to wear a tie and jacket for dinner, and ladies, equivalent evening attire.

  • Drinking water

    In Nairobi and on safari, we recommend that you do not drink the water from the taps and even out of the thermos or flasks provided. We recommend instead that you purchase bottled water at the lodges, camps & hotels. Use mouthwash to brush and wash your teeth. Ice is generally frozen from boiled water and is ok for consumption.

  • Food

    Food in Kenya is delicious, varied and plentiful, succulent crayfish from the Indian Ocean, smoked sailfish (Kenya’s equivalent to smoked salmon), English roast beef, Molo lamb, and much more. Kenyas’ famed fruits abound – pineapples, pawpaw, mangoes, avocados, passion fruits, banana, pears, and strawberries to name a few. Fresh vegetables are equally abundant. The hotels, lodges and camps in which you stay are renowned for their high standard of cuisine. However, a change of climate and traveling can, in a few instances, cause travelers diarrhea, a minor complaint not comparable in severity with ‘gypie tummy’. Eating in moderation, avoiding cold buffet lunch tables that have been exposed to the mid-day sun, and fasting for a day (whilst drinking plenty of bottled water) should you be stricken, are sensible precautions.

  • Sensible safekeeping of passport and valuables

    Please keep your passport and money on you at all times. Never leave money or valuables in your room or in your vehicle. You can keep valuables in security boxes at the hotels and lodges. Be especially careful whilst in camps, hotels and lodges and on special excursions such as boat-rides. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry.

kasine and Joseph did their best as a group leader to provide our group of 24 with a great knowledge

However as a first timer to East Africa I would have preferred a small and more homogenerous.I had signed up for this trip to learn all about East Africa .Chips/gorilla tracking and wildlife safari experience combinations are just awesome though.

Above and Beyond expectations - a trip to remember for a life time 9 day all inclusive Kenya safari

03-Jun-2020

The company is very responsive to any questions or concerns you might have. From the time you get picked up from airport to all the locations you go to exceptional customer service. Every place we stayed at the hotels/resorts/tents exceptional service and rooms were all excellent. Food was wonderful too. Surpassed all our expectations. Our driver David was friendly and extremely knowledgeable, i recommend him to everyone i tell about this great safari adventure we had. The best part of the trip is we did see the big 5, the pictures and videos we got are breath taking. we had night vision goggles that did video and we got to capture 2 male hippos fighting over territory in the river next to our tent. everyone else only got to hear the noise they make. I mentioned to Starluck about the trip was for my 50th bday and hubbies bday, they made sure that there were special add on's for our big days. they truly went above and beyond! We will be booking another Safari through Starluck in the near future. ...more ...less

Fantastic Operator and Excellent Safari!

06-Sep-2019

I cannot say enough good words about Starluck Safaris, the operator James or our guide Kennedy. They are top notched and provided an amazing safari on short notice with excellent accommodations at a fair price. Let me start with a little background. We originally booked with "Kenya Walking Survivors Safaris (KWSS)" in August 2018 for a safari to begin August 22, 2019. Exactly two weeks before our safari, KWSS sent an email saying they were no longer able to provide our requested service. Needless to say we were shocked and angry, and our confidence in booking on line shattered. This was to be THE trip of our lifetimes, long saved for. After deliberations we looked for another operator who could fit us in on short notice and conform to our prearranged flights. It was such that we had the very good fortune to find Starluck! Not only could Starluck fit us in on our original schedule, they were able to provide a customized 10-day safari superior to what we had originally booked. Given our previous scam we were nervous until we met James in the lobby of our hotel and he gave us a copy of the agreed upon itinerary, our lodge vouchers, and an explanation on how it would all unfold. We met our driver/guide Kennedy the next morning and left for what would be an absolutely wonderful and amazing experience. We visited Amboseli, Aberdare, Simburu, Lake Nakuru and Masa Mara parks and preserves. The accommodations were first rate and exceeded our expectations. The rooms were comfortable and the food excellent with much variety to choose from. Kennedy was a superstar! He not only safely negotiated the chaotic and hectic Kenyan traffic and subpar roads with skill, he was very personable, friendly and courteous, and we learned much about Kenya and its cultures as we traveled. Kennedy was very knowledgeable about the places we visited and ardently found the wildlife even the harder ones to find such as leopards. Starluck, James and Kennedy saved our dream trip of our lifetimes and we are deeply indebted to them. ...more ...less
