Explore Maasai Mara

Day 2Explore Maasai Mara Explore Maasai Mara After breakfast, you will begin your spectacular full-day game drive, which will allow you to spot the magnificent wildlife in the park. Early mornings and late afternoons are considered the best times to spot animals as they are most active. This is the time that the big cats are most active and can provide some of the most dramatic photography. You will drive down to the Mara River, site of the great migration (when in season – July to October). The immense herds of wildebeest and zebra are a magnificent sight, matched only by the drama of the predators who lie in wait for them. You may want to take advantage of several optional events we offer at an extra cost. Experience a visit to the local Maasai people in their nearby village. Want an unforgettable sight? Take a pre-dawn hot-air balloon ride high above the reserve as the morning light breaks across the golden savannah and witness the herds of wildlife emerging into the day.
