What can I say. We've been through the Mara on three different occasions at three different times of the year at three different lodges. Spectacular animal viewing, excellent lodges or camps to stay at. A MUST SEE !!

Scenery can not match Samburu / Shaba, a bit crowded

The Mara is large enough that you can wander away from the endless stream of safari vehicles. And it is oh, so worth it! To witness the Great Migration in all it's dust and sound and smell and life. Do not miss it.

Without match. If this is the one park you can visit for a safari, make it the Masai Mara.

One of Kenya's best parks & perhaps one the best known destinations on the planet. Love it every time I visit. Lots of lodges to choose from - excellent wildlife & you get to see it all.

Although the "great migration" is one of most beautiful things you can experience, the park is overcrowded by tourist, if you want to see a lion you just have to check how many minivans are concentrated in one place - That's not Africa!!!!

This was the ultimate experience at the Masai Mara Sopa Lodge. Excellent accommodation. Saw the big five and more plus a ride in a hot air balloon.

The Masai Mara was the icing on the cake following a truly unforgettable holiday. A Lion cub passed our vehicle, we saw cheetahs and a great variety of animals, hippos at Keekorok bathing in a pool. We saw a lilac breasted roller on a game drive, a beautiful colourful bird that looked like a spunk sparrow. Again our guide could not do enough for us and we even visited a Masai village. The only disappointment of a truly memorable holiday was missing out on the balloon ride due to winds. However, we made up for this by flying back to Nairobi in a small plane crossing over the Mara several times for about 2 1/2 hours, stopping to pick up passengers on the way.

The best of all for wide open breathtaking scenery and variety of species. I felt very emotional when leaving with feelings for both the animals and the beautiful local people. The first thing we did on returning home was to seek out a charity for the Masai people.
