Maasai mara
The spectacular African fauna that calls the natural wonderland home includes the famous big five animals and the most sought after animals which include lions, elephants, Buffaloes, leopards and Rhinoceros, impalas, zebras, waterbucks, Warthogs, hyenas giraffes, and wildebeests among other animals. It should come as no surprise that for many visitors, this is the main attraction. The Maasai Mara Wildebeest Migration is the most well-known animal behaviour in the world, making the reserve the most alluring location for a wildlife safari in Kenya. The wildebeest migrate from Serengeti National Park to Maasai Mara National Reserve during the months of July and October. Beautiful Maasai Mara National Reserve is where the huge migration takes place.
The wildebeest’s migration is interrupted by the many predators they encounter along the road. The unlucky are eaten as prey by the crocodiles in the Mara River, while the successful may be waited for by large cats like lions as their next meal, but the persistent ones can still stand and endure. As a result of the Maasai people’s long-standing presence in the region, the Maasai Mara is also renowned for its extensive cultural history. You may take advantage of game drives, hot air balloon rides, and guided tours of Maasai villages while you’re in the area, all of which offer an incomparable experience of Kenya’s wildlife and culture.
