With much of the herd split on either side of the Mara River, meandering in both Kenya and Tanzania, it\u2019s an excellent opportunity to see the Great Migration in the Masai Mara without contending with the crowds that flock to the Serengeti.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Spend part of our <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/en-us\/tours\/african-safari-adventure?optionId=1038&amp;tab=itinerary\"><em>African Safari Adventure<\/em><\/a><em> tour witnessing the tail end of the Great Migration in Kenya and Tanzania.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2154\" height=\"1212\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2025\/04\/getty-images-B3JfUWyeM0w-unsplash-edited.jpg\" alt=\"close up of a buffalo face in the sun\" class=\"wp-image-881520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/getty-images-B3JfUWyeM0w-unsplash-edited.jpg 2154w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/getty-images-B3JfUWyeM0w-unsplash-edited-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/getty-images-B3JfUWyeM0w-unsplash-edited-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/getty-images-B3JfUWyeM0w-unsplash-edited-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/getty-images-B3JfUWyeM0w-unsplash-edited-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2154px) 100vw, 2154px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-buffalo-roundup-and-arts-festival-south-dakota\">4.

The Imilchil Marriage Festival was originally a private event for Berber tribes only, offering a safe space for women and men to meet with the intention of becoming engaged. The tradition was based on the romantic tale of two lovers who, similar to the story of <em>Romeo and Juliet<\/em>, felt that they were starcrossed lovers yet their tribes disagreed. Today, the festival is open to the public to attend, offering a unique glimpse into the conservative culture of Berber tribes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>End our <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/en-us\/tours\/best-of-morocco?optionId=108&amp;tab=datesprices\"><em>Best of Morocco<\/em><\/a><em> tour in Casablanca on September 15 then extend your visit with a trip into the Atlas Mountains for the Imilchil Marriage Festival.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2025\/04\/daniel-beauchamp-Tni6wa9rtsI-unsplash-edited-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Owara Kaze no Bon dancers parade through Suwamachi Street for one of Japan's september events\" class=\"wp-image-881522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/daniel-beauchamp-Tni6wa9rtsI-unsplash-edited-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/daniel-beauchamp-Tni6wa9rtsI-unsplash-edited-330x186.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/daniel-beauchamp-Tni6wa9rtsI-unsplash-edited-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/daniel-beauchamp-Tni6wa9rtsI-unsplash-edited-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/daniel-beauchamp-Tni6wa9rtsI-unsplash-edited-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Owara Kaze no Bon (\u304a\u308f\u3089\u98a8\u306e\u76c6) dancers parade through Suwamachi Street, Yatsuo Town, Toyama, Japan.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-owara-kaze-no-bon-festival-japan\">7.
