"3 Days Masai Mara Safari"

3 DAYS MASAI MARA (DAILY DEPARTURES GUARANTEED)

Kenya’s Masai Mara is arguably the most famous reserve. It’s smooth grass carpeted
hills and plains dotted with flat topped acacia trees are full of rich faunal
diversity, fulfilling the expectations of any visitor searching the African landscape for the BIG 5. Located west of the Great Rift Valley, Mara is a natural extension of the Serengeti plains in the neighbouring Tanzania. The Mara River, the reserve’s backbone traverses north to south. This course is the natural barrier crossed each year by large migratory heard of
wildebeest and zebra which march across the two parks in search of pasture, crossing
en route, the crocodile infested Mara River. Coupled with ever watchful predatory
cats in the midst, the annual migration is a risky affair and fraught with peril.
Morning and evening game drives through the Mara reserve gives you a chance of
spotting a diverse array of wildlife including elephants, giraffe, black rhino,
cheetah, gazelle, buffalo, hippo, various other herbivores and bird species.
