Masai Mara National Reserve

On this day, you can choose to go on a full-day game drive in the Mara with a picnic lunch on morning and afternoon game drives. The trees in the distance might turn out to be a family of giraffes. Those clumps of bushes a pride of lions, and the rock that moves might be a rhino lumbering out of your way. With diligence and some luck, you may encounter a family of cheetahs or a herd of elephants crossing the path in front of you. Large animals are not the only entertainment—a family of warthogs may amuse you, running as fast as their little legs will carry them until they forget why they are rushing and stop to regroup. You will return later to your camp/lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
