The classic site - though without the great migratory herds of Wilderbeest and Zebra, it didn't fail to deliver. Leopard and cub feeding up a tree, a large pride of Lions on a kill. Wow

This is an amazing park, but it has a few downsides. It's very busy, and a lot of the drivers don't show the animals much respect. We also felt very pressured by the masai people to buy over priced stuff. The wildlife is amazing though.

Best for hippos, crocodiles, zebras, wildebeest, lions, cheetahs, and leopard.

Fantastic experience with Daylight Adventure

It’s my first time to visit Masai Mara in Kenya. I joined a private tour of Daylight Adventure. Thanks for the hospitality of their staff. They came to my hotel to share the gifts and introduce the itinerary and logistics arrangement before the trip. And after that, I spent a few hours travelling from Nairobi to Masai Mara and started the first game drive around 4pm. As it’s a private tour, I can be taking photos with my preference time and locations. It’s wonderful choice! At the second day, we travelled in Masai Mara again. What different to the first day is I can see leopard, lions, elephant, giraffes, etc more closely. I was also impressed to see the wild hippo at the lake Naivasha. It’s a very excited experience! In short, thanks for the great arrangement of Daylight Adventure.

After all this park was made out to be we were fairly disapointed. We saw a good variety of wildlive but only small isolated groups. Mush of the terrain was burnt and void ao anything. This was not due to natural bush fires but controlled burning and it completely ruined any feeling of bush atmosphere.
