Masai Mara (Maasai Mara) is one of Africa’s greatest wildlife reserves and it is one of the best-known and most popular reserves. Masai Mara and the Serengeti National Park form Africa’s most diverse, incredible, and most spectacular eco-systems and possibly the world’s top safari big game viewing eco-system. Safaris are without a doubt some of the best you ever get.
The ecosystem hosts over 95 animal species and they include large herds of elephants and buffaloes meandering the plains, the hippo pools in the Mara brown rivers, Masai giraffes, topis, grant and Thompson’s gazelles, zebras, plenty of Nile crocodiles, blue- and red-tailed monkeys and tree hyraxes. An abundance of herbivores definitely makes it an ideal hunting ground for predators – and therefore a comfy home of Kenya’s famous big cats. The lions, leopards, cheetahs, spotted hyenas and jackals can be seen easily.
Some may say, two days are not enough, and who are we to oppose? But for all those short of time, we did our best and tailored this two-day adventure to make the most of every moment of their time in Mara!
We will pick you at your hotel in Nairobi early in the morning and head for the drive to Masai Mara. The ride takes five to six hours, but the picturesque, changing surroundings will make the journey go by like lightning – only your hunger will remind you that itu2019s time for lunch. And just then youu2019ll arrive at Mara. After settling your stomach with a delicious lunch, youu2019ll head for your afternoon game drive. Expect to see a lot, and we mean really a lot! Grazers at their dinner, predators, lazily deciding on what to catch, birds, and stunning nature will fill your camera – make sure to save some space for tomorrowu2019s wonders.
Wake up before dawn and experience sunrise in Mara. Predators are now active, coming back from their hunt, the sun still kind and caressing, before burning hot.
After breakfast, youu2019ll go on with a game drive and slowly wave Mara goodbye. En-route to Nairobi, youu2019ll enjoy a picnic lunch, before returning to your hotel in the late afternoon.
