The Masai Mara has been made famous for its huge abundance of varied wildlife, including zebras, elephants and giraffes as well as the annual wildebeest migration and the diversity of bird life, both resident and migrant. ‘Mara’ means ‘spotted’ or ‘dappled’, a reference to the acacia vegetation which dots the savannas of Southern Kenya where the Masai live. Still resident, the Masai have not been influenced by western culture, with their herds of cattle in this unique setting.
This is the Africa of Karen Blixen with the wide open plains, the freely roaming animals and the night sky that opens up with a panorama of stars too numerous to count. Your safari is unrivaled anywhere in Africa. Unlike the mainstream safaris that are vehicle driven, you will ride side by side with the zebra, giraffe and wildebeest. Night drives reveal the beauty of the land the comes alive when the rest of the world is resting.
This is a trip of a lifetime and unlike any other trip you will experience.
