Masai Mara National Reserve

The best park in Kenya with uncountable wildlife numbers

When I visited this park in August, the migration of the animals was fully ongoing. There were hundreds of thousands of animals out in the huge savanna, they were uncountable.

The Zebras and Wildebeests crossing the Mara River was an amazing thing to watch, something extraordinary that one has to watch in a lifetime. We were also very lucky to see a lion kill wildebeests and also buffalo.

Also, managed to see a pride of 18 lions at one spot in Masai Mara, and even lions mating. This was the most outstanding park that we visited.

The safari company we booked with ensured we had the best game viewing in this sanctuary and recommend African Sermon Safaris operator. Their guides, Ben and James are also top class.

Kenya's Jewel of Masai Mara

A very scenic park with enormous wildlife populations worth viewing. The Wildebeest migration is indeed a magical thing to see. I was amazed at the wildlife numbers and the Mara River crossing the highlight. Overall, a must see before one's death. I was glad we had a good safari company arranging the tour for us, worth the mention - African Sermon Safaris.

God's creation is beautiful

Seeing is believing. Nothing can be described in words.

Amazing place but so many tour vehicles! Saw every single animal I could want but never alone as in Tsavo!

A very interesting tour: a lot of animals of several species in a beautiful landscape

good memories for the environment and wildlife and also for the accomodation, local guide and weather

You don't want to miss it

So big and full of wildlife, it is easy to forget that it is a park.
Try to be there during the migration season.

Beauty beyond belief

My experience with Adventure Backpackers Tanzania was extraordinaire. Not sure why they call themselves "Adventure Backpackers" because there were backpacks insight? They used vans with open roofs for great access (360 degree view) of the vast Savannah. Nelson, the senior coordinator, was well organized, fair and dedicated to making sure our group's travel experience was fun and enjoyable. Celestine Mueni, sales assistant, was helpful and friendly. Debbie, travel consultant, was knowledgeable about lodging and resorts, she was very helpful. Cyrus, the safari driver, was knowledgeable and made sure we saw plenty of wildlife and explained many things about the animals living in their natural habitat. I loved my experience and plan to go on more safaris to other parts of Kenya and Tanzania--booked by Adventure Backpackers.

The cherry on top! We saved the best for the last and the 3 nights in Masai were the best 3 nights. When we were there (mid July), the migration of the animals was full on and there were thousands of animals out in the savanna. The wildebeests and zebras crossing the Mara river was a treat to watch. We were also lucky to see a lion kill and to top it all off, 18 lions in one day.

In Masai Mara the animals could not be counted they were so numerous, the grass lands were so vast. The number of Wild beasts ad Zebras was astounding. The sighting of lions, Cheetahs and Leopards at this place all in close proximity to each other was unique. Lions mating was seen in the wild by us. Even cubs playing freely in the bushes was very interesting.

Out of Africa experience, wild and spacious

Beautiful scenery, lots of wildlife (big 5) spotted, excellent camps and truly a place to return to.
