Maasai Mara

You'll have full-day morning and afternoon game drives. Start your day early by getting up before dawn at 6:00 am to embark on an early morning game drive in your tour vehicle to explore the Masai Mara National Park which is a vast expanse of 1500 sq km.

Situated at an average altitude of 1650 m, its plains are an ideal landscape for the elegant and sprightly gazelles. Green in the rainy season, the high-growing grass is dry for the rest of the year, offering one a view of eternal Africa. Keep your camera handy to capture everything from elephants to gazelles and crocodiles to lions.

You will enjoy a picnic lunch with the hippos and crocodiles at the Hippo Pool. Perhaps you will be lucky enough to observe gnu, zebra and their predators (hyenas, lions, leopards, and wild dogs), especially during the migration period between August and September.

You can also have the option to participate in a hot air balloon ride or go on a Maasai Village visit at an additional cost.
