Masai Mara Discovery

After breakfast, you'll leave for a full-day game drive with your packed lunch. The amazing wildlife experience continues. On the plains are large herds of herbivores grazing, cheetahs, and leopards hiding in their locations. Masai Mara is the heart of Kenyan tourism with large species of mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and over 400 bird species recorded on the reserve. Nowhere in Africa is wildlife more abundant, and it is for this reason a visitor hardly misses to see the Big Five (buffalo, elephant, leopard, lion, and rhino). Your picnic lunch will be at the Mara River migration point. After your picnic lunch, you will have some rest before embarking on your late afternoon game. You will later drive back to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
