Masai Mara Safari Tours & Holidays

This east African nation is home to the Masai Mara National Reserve, a sprawling 580 square mile game reserve. Making up the northernmost part of the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem, the Masai Mara features rivers including the Talek River, Sand River, and Mara River.

Known locally as 'The Mara', the Masai Mara is the cherished home of Africa's Big Five and a treasured biodiversity haven, with a range of wildlife including giraffe, zebra, hippo, lion, and cheetah wandering the varied environment. 

Visit during the summer months and you might be able to catch an unforgettable glimpse of the annual wildebeest migration when millions of these creatures walk across this scenic expanse of the African savannah — it’s truly one of the world’s most striking natural phenomena.

And then there are the people. During the Kenyan trip, you should definitely visit a Masai village, where you can meet the locals and learn about their daily life as well as their rich cultural heritage through their thrilling traditional dance performances.
