This Masai Mara experience was so awesome that if I could have added few more stars in my review then I surely would have. It was really a dream come true and I'm simply dumbstruck. Nothing like Masai Mara.

Cannot ask for anything more. Awesome wildlife experience. A creditable praise to the wildlife conservators and govt of Kenya for the maintenance and protection of the animals. A matchless experience.

The Masai mara is the real Safari experience. After more than 60 countries visited, the Masai Mara must be the location that impressed me the most. It is so full of wildlife and it is so authentic and unspoiled. Beautiful.

Our Safari was well organised and was better than we thought. The wildlife was amazing as well as the scenery. Food and accoodation were sometimes much better than we had expected. And our guide was a very responsible driver and he really made great efforts to spot as many animals as possible.
I hope to repeat this experience soon.

This is a very beautiful place with a lot of wildlife to view but the most enjoyable part of this safari was witnessing the wildebeest migration.

We stayed at Governors' camp on two occasions.This is a true wild life experience that would be hard to better. We would return here tomorrow with no hesitation
The Maasai Mara National Reserve is a large game reserve in Narok County

I am a Kenyan, born and raised in Nairobi and hadn't yet visited Masai Mara until Last year December(2013). My family and I were hesitant because of the rains and Mara is known to be impassible during the rainy season but we decided to go ahead and not cancel our booking. Aren't we glad we went to the Mara. By road, its almost a 5hr drive on tarmac road until you reach Narok town where the tarmac just starts reducing until there is none as you get near the park. I have been to some Parks and Reserves in Kenya but Mara was the best. We saw a lot of lions(which isn't easy), leopards playing around and some of the prettiest tallest giraffes I have ever seen, among other wildlife. Now we know what the fuss is all about and cannot wait to back during the migration period. We booked directly through Sarova group and stayed at Sarova Mara and it was fantastic, best customer service ever. Our tour driver/guide was from Somak Safaris and he knew his wildlife.

P.s if
Read more you can, splurge more on hiring a land cruiser than a tour van when planning to tour Masai Mara. once you get to the rough roads, that's when you really appreciate the 4wd.
