The Masai Mara fulfils the dreams of any visitor searching for an amazing safari experience. The iconic African landscapes - endless seas of golden grass dotted with picturesque acacia trees - are home to cheetah, leopard, large prides of lions, elephants, giraffe, hyena, huge Nile crocodiles, frolicking hippos and many other species.
Wildlife viewing in the Mara is fantastic all year round, and, from August to October, it is the sight of one of the most spectacular wildlife experiences on earth - the annual migration of close to two million wildebeest and zebra following the seasonal rains in a quest for fresh grass. During these months, you might be lucky enough to catch a dramatic river crossing, as these animals swim for their lives across the crocodile-infested Mara River.
In addition to exciting game drives, the conservation areas surrounding the Masai Mara also offer the opportunity for beautiful bush walks and visits to Masai villages and to the colourful market in Aitong.
