I don't have to say much about Masai Mara. It is the perfect safari experience and is good in all aspects. Spend as much time as possible here. Preferably end your safari trip in Masai Mara. Stay in a resort that in inside the gate of the park.

A vast landscape with piles of bones a reminder of the circle of life. We followed vultures to a kill and eventually to the cheetah mother who took down the wildebeest for her cubs. Warthogs were comic relief. Lazy hippos and crocodiles in the river, a tawny eagle near our picnic spot. And yes, lions. A bit too many vans, some get too close to the wildlife for their comfort or ours.

An unforgettable experience I wish I could repeat.
When Africa is number one on your bucket list, where do you go next? I was beyond lucky to be able to experience this once-in-a-lifetime journey, but please, oh please I don't get to do something this amazing just once.
I tried to be present in every moment, to enjoy every day, and sometimes put the camera down and just watch. There was one moment, while closely viewing a pride of lions, three ladies decided to walk toward our vehicle, each getting closer than the last until the final lionness walked right beside the vehicle staring at each one of us before disappearing behind the rear of our open jeep. Indescribable.
One of the great disadvantages of time is that it keeps marching on, and once that time has passed it cannot be repeated. Sometimes an experience is so perfect all you'd like to do is just repeat it.

air was warmer than I thought it would be in November, and after a nice long day it was so refreshing to jump into the cool infinity pool near the edge of the fence, and watch the rhinos and wildebeest that lived beyond it.The people were kind and eager to share their lives with us. I remember moments like our safari walk with James, watching the Maasai dancers, and learning so much from our loyal and informative guides. Some experiences with the Maasai people are so magical I will keep them just for myself.
The food was delicious, so many tastes and smells, of ginger and curry, and bright vegetables. You might ask if they use organic food - of course they do, but they just call it food. If you are not a soup person, don't let that stop you - Kenyans know how to make a great soup.
To be able to finish this trip with a hot air balloon at sunrise was definitely the icing on the cake, to see the lions from above, and the elephants and giraffe. Photos don't do it justice. The hot air from the balloon burner on your neck, the sun in your face, the wind in your hair - floating over the Masai Mara without feeling like you're moving at all.
Please tell me I don't get to do something this amazing just once.
Africa, you are my favorite.

It was amazing to see the big migration, the river crossing, the hunting and killing by wildlife.
The wildlife was abundant, scenery beautiful, weather of late August and early September pleasant. The accommodations were first rate, food fresh and delicious, transportation not too bad despite of rugged road condition. Our guides were very knowledgeable and very professional, proud of their work. The whole trip was adventurous and memorable and has to be one of our best vacation experiences if not the best!
