Β
One of Africa’s Greatest Wildlife Reserves
Maasai MaraΒ (Masai Mara) is situated in south-west Kenya and isΒ one of Africaβs Greatest Wildlife Reserves.
Together with theΒ Serengeti National ParkΒ in Tanzania it forms Africaβs most diverse, incredible and most spectacular eco-systems and possibly the worldβs top safari big game viewing eco-system.
Β
Maasai Mara National Reserve stretches 1,510 sq km (580 sq miles) and raises 1,500-2,170 meters above sea level. Add the conservancies and the area is at least twice the size. It hosts over 95 species of mammals and over 570 recorded species of birds.

Β
Wildebeest Migration: Make sure you have your safari booked planned out that includes the Maasai Mara. The wildebeest migration is nothing short of amazing. It is one of the things you have do add to your bucket list. Best time to be in Kenya for it is JULY – OCTOBER although Kenya is a great year round destination.
Β
Accommodation:Β There is a wide selection ofΒ places to stayΒ around the Maasai Mara and the conservancies. The conservancies surrounding the Maasai Mara have restricted number of vehicles allowing a more private game viewing of wildlife. We recommend staying 3 or 4 nights and add in a couple of other destinations too to your safari.
Β
Photography:Β While the Mara offers some of the greatest opportunities to get your dream shot, try and include theΒ Shompole HideΒ too (and further more a stay atΒ Shompole Wilderness CampΒ and for an added cost get you aerial shots of flamingoes and pinks lakes from a helicopter!)
Β
There are plenty of places to stay inΒ Nairobi CityΒ and have a look at other destinations in Kenya like theΒ Tsavo National Parks,Β Amboseli National Park,Β Diani BeachΒ andΒ Shompole Conservancy.
Β
Safaris:Β Have a look at theΒ extensive list of safarisΒ for you to choose from. We recommend enquiring on 2 or 3 safaris and wait to hear from them.
