Day 2 & 3: Maasai mara game reserve
Two full day game in the park or morning and afternoon game viewing is set aside today for game viewing in Kenya’s finest wildlife park, the Masai Mara National Reserve. Your morning and afternoon (full day) game drives take you in search of Africa’s Big Five and the plethora of other wildlife inhabiting this vast Kenyan game reserve. On clear days, the Mara offers fantastic orange-tinged sunsets that make for spectacular photos. Much game are coming at your door step when you in the park leaving you with only option of counting your blessings that nature holds for you as you view them in their natural habitat. The Mara Reserve covers 1510km² of incredible wide-open landscapes and fertile riverine woodlands, following the looping meanders of the Mara and Talek rivers in southwest Kenya. One glimpse is enough to explain its appeal; it is typical open savannah, with a mass of amazing wildlife. Wherever you go in the vast Masai Mara Park you will see a frequent amount of wildlife such as Masai giraffe, baboons, warthogs, bat eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted hyena, topis, impala, hartebeests, wildebeest. Elephants, buffalos, zebras and hippos are also found in great numbers. It is also common to see lions either basking after a heavy meal, or surveying the plains for their next meal. Cheetahs and leopards are harder to spot, but reasonably common. The ultimate action here is without a doubt the annual wildebeest exodus, the Great Migration, in July, August and September when millions of these grazers move north from the Serengeti in search of lusher grass before turning south again in October for the new life circle to begin after a life threatening move across the strong jaws of East Africa crocodile found within the mara river and talek river. Lack is a determining factor for you to see this as it is nature driven if you happen to visit Kenya in June, July, Aug, September and October.
Despite well-known wildebeest Migration in the month of July, Maasai mara host un countable wildlife all the year round. You will be able to see lots of wildlife in their Natural settings / Habitats as maasai mara has been voted one of the best park with good percentage of wildlife all the year round, just because when the main migration takes place millions migrates back and thousands remains in the mara eco system so sporting the Big 5 Cats is very easy among other wild games “flora and fauna” all the year round.
