5 Maasai Mara Game Reserve - Into the Bush
Over the next two exciting days at your camp, drive across the sprawling savanna in search of abundant game in one of Kenya's most spectacular reserves. Running along the Tanzanian border, the Mara forms a vital part of the Serengeti ecosystem. Each year, more than a million zebra wildebeest and gazelle march north to graze on the Mara's lush grasses as part of the Great Migration's annual cycle. Follow the Mara River to see crocodiles basking in the sun, hippos wallowing in the water or monkeys swinging madly overhead.
