The Masai Mara is one of Kenya’s most spectacular wildlife destinations and one of the world’s most famous safari locations. It is renowned for its vast open plains, abundant wildlife and the spectacular Great Migration.

During July, August and September, huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, gazelles and antelopes move from the Serengeti into the Masai Mara in search of fresh grazing and water. During December and January, the migration takes place in the opposite direction.

These periods offer exceptional opportunities to witness dramatic wildlife encounters, including river crossings, predators hunting on the plains and crocodiles waiting in the rivers. Hyenas and vultures may also be seen gathering around the remains of animals.

A 3-Day Masai Mara Safari from Nairobi by 4×4 Land Cruiser gives you the opportunity to experience this remarkable wilderness at a comfortable pace, with several game drives throughout your stay.
