Day 02: Nairobi - Masai Mara
After breakfast, we make our way to Kenya's premier wildlife park - the Masai Mara.
This is the northern section of the Serengeti Plain, which is home to the
greatest concentration of game animals in the world. First of 2 nights in
the Masai Mara. Sarova Mara Tented Camp. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.
Day 03: Masai Mara Game Reserve
The vast, open grasslands of the Serengeti-Mara are home to over 3 million
large mammals. These include over 1.4 million wildebeest, which migrate in
an enormous, straggling herd each year between the southern part of the
Serengeti to the northern part and back again. With them move other
herbivores such as gazelles and zebra, also looking for the best grass.
Along the way they provide food for big predators such as lions, leopards
and cheetahs. Here we learn about and see first hand the intricate web of
dependency that binds the different species together. Each animal has
adapted to its own niche and to the other animals that surround it. Here we
see Nature at its most subtle and, sometimes, most cruel as each animal
struggles to survive and reproduce. On our morning and afternoon game drives
in the Masai Mara we have a very good chance of seeing all the major Plains
animals including lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, rhino, hyena, cheetah,
jackal, warthog and many species of antelope. Second of 3 nights in the
Masai Mara. Sarova Mara Tented Camp. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.
Day 4: Masai Mara Game Reserve
Game viewing/Photography: Sunrise and sundown are the greatest
moments for game viewing in these mystic plains, a time where the soft
red hues of the sun will give you an added natural richness to your
photographs with the clarity of the actual African savannah. Morning game
viewing with long drive to the Mara River where you will be able to view
Hippos and giant Crocodiles. This will be followed by resting time and
