The only reason I gave only 3 stars for bush vibe is because some areas of the park can get really busy, especially if there's any rare sightings (ex. leopard, river crossing, hunting). Some tourists don't know safari customs (and their guides are too polite to tell them) - talk very loud in the safari. We witnesses a hunt by a group of hyenas and some people were just screaming and talking so loud -scared them away.

Otherwise, the wildlife is abundant and very beautiful.

Maasai Mara absolutely deserves its reputation as the "must see" park in Kenya. The landscape is magnificent and the animals are abundant and just incredible. We caught the very end of the wildebeest migration, and it was like nothing we'd ever seen in our lives. There were easily 50,000 wildebeest scattered across the savannah; from a distance they looked like ants. It's a site I will never forget.

The only thing I do not recommend is visiting the Maasai village. We were uncomfortable from the start and by the end, when we were basically forced to buy souvenirs at exorbitant prices, we really felt taken advantage of. Definitely interesting to learn about the Maasai people, but this just seemed like some kind of scheme.

The wildlife is amazing! Big groups of zebra antilpoes, buffalos, wildebeests... we saw different families of lions, elephants, jirafes. The park offers different sceneries from dry savannah to green plains with different wildlife, making the safri more exciting.

If you can only go to one park, then this is the one to visit. The animals at Masai Mara were everywhere. This is the park you think of when imagining a safari. We saw several prides of lions in this park. There were many hippos and crocodiles in the Mara River. The wildebeest were still grazing on the Mara and had not returned to Tanzania.

There are a lot of wildlife in the park, and there are roads that allow to reach most of the places, so you can see the animals close enough to take a good picture. At the peak moments watching some animal there were less than 10 cars in same place, so don't have the feeling of overload.
