Masai Mara National Reserve

After an early breakfast, you will spend a full day of game viewing and exploring this spectacular park. A picnic lunch is served in the park at the Mara River, the border of Kenya and Tanzania. Your will return to the camp for dinner and your overnight stay.

The Masai Mara is one of Africa’s most famous parks. The wildlife viewing is superb throughout the year. The grassy plains and regular rainfall supports a huge population of herbivores, in turn attracting many predators. All three big cats are relatively easy to see. The yearly wildebeest migration coming through the park is one of the world’s most amazing wildlife spectacles.
