The Masai Mara – endless seas of golden grass dotted with hesitant shrubs, broken here and there with the ghostly acacia trees and ringed by distant hills, the chocolate Mara river waters with frolicking hippos, immensely rich animal life including countless game and large prides of lions – fulfills the expectations of any visitor searching the African landscapes portrayed in movies such as "Out of Africa". The Mara River, the reserve's backbone, traverses north to south and is the natural barrier crossed every year by more than one million migratory wildebeests and 200,000 zebras following the seasonal rains in a quest for the best pastures, finding along the way the crocodile-crowded river. From July to October, this is a sight of one of the most spectacular and dramatic sites on earth.
