Arrive on time for lunch at the Mara Sopa Lodge. Masai Mara is world famous for the annual great wildebeest migration that takes place in July and August where close to a million wildebeest close the Mara River in search of pasture. At 4:00 pm – 6:30 pm, you'll enjoy your first evening game drive. Our guide will take you through the reserve where you will be surprised by the high concentration of wild animals. Here herds of elephants roam freely, wildebeest, buffalos, impalas, Thomson’s gazelles and zebras graze in their numbers. Big cats are not hard to spot either, including the elusive leopard. It is one of the few places you are guaranteed to spot the famous Big Five on a single morning or afternoon.
