Masai Mara Safaris: What To Expect

If you dream of raw, unfiltered Africa, where you’re overwhelmed by seemingly unending savannahs and swathes of wildlife, a Kenya safari in the Masai Mara National Reserve could be your trip of a lifetime.

Imagine waking up with the sunrise at a luxury safari camp, excited to start a day of game viewing. You travel the plains in an open-air 4×4, all of your senses engaged. At a river, the vehicle comes to a stop, and your gaze is fixed on a massive herd of wildebeest jumping in and swimming across the river.

When it comes to wildlife destinations, Masai Mara, Kenya, is in a class of its own. Famous for its vast savannahs and abundant wildlife populations, including the Big Five, there’s always something incredible to see.

Masai Mara Safaris: What To Expect

Located in southwestern Kenya, the Masai Mara National Reserve is one of the world’s most visited wildlife reserves. The reserve is named after the Maasai people, who are the ancestral inhabitants of the area.

During a Masai Mara safari, you can go on game drives to spot big game in the wilderness, as well as walking safaris to see the smaller inhabitants of the park. There are also opportunities for cultural expeditions to learn from the wisdom of the indigenous tribes, such as the Maasai.

Another activity to consider is a hot air balloon safari. Imagine soaring above the savannah at sunrise, watching the wildlife below, and ending with a champagne breakfast in the bush.

The Great Migration – the annual journey of millions of wildebeest across the plains of East Africa in search of rich grazing lands – can be a highlight of a Kenya safari. Massive herds pass into the Masai Mara; witnessing the wildebeest cross the Mara River and dodging crocodiles is a jaw-dropping experience.

With over 500 bird species, the Masai Mara is a fantastic region for birdwatching safaris in Kenya. The reserve is home to a variety of birds, including vultures, eagles, and storks.
