Masai Mara National Reserve Game Drive
On this day, you will depart after breakfast to Masai Mara National Reserve for full-day game viewing drives. Picnic lunches will be served as you relax under a tree and see the vast landscape and its beauty. You'll have dinner and your overnight stay at Lenchada Tourist Camp. The Mara offers wildlife in such variety and abundance that it is difficult to believe. Over 450 species of animals have been recorded here. You will easily see lions, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, buffalo, warthogs, hyenas, jackals, wild dogs, leopards, elephants and many kinds of antelopes. It is in the Mara that perhaps the most spectacular event of the natural world takes place: the great migration. This is the annual migration of millions of wildebeests and zebras from the Serengeti (in Tanzania) in search of water and pasture. Following on their heels are the predators of the savannah: lions, cheetahs, wild dogs, jackals, hyenas, and vultures.
