Kenya Safari Guide

It has been called the Greatest Show on Earth, the Great Wildebeest Migration, and the Masai Mara in Kenya is host for part of the year
Excellent Game Viewing Year Round
Even though the herds of the great migration are in the Mara for a relatively short period of time the wildlife viewing in the Masai Mara is phenomenal throughout the year. The landscape of the Mara is predominantly open grass plains that seem to roll into the distance and this makes game easier to spot.
The Masai Mara is not fenced and wildlife ranges into the Maasai territories surrounding the park. Many safari operators, in conjunction with the Maasai, have set up lodges on the Maasai land and it is here where visitors can experience the fascinating culture of one of Africa's legendary people. A visit to a Maasai village is an integral part of a Maasai Mara safari.
