Safari Kenya

Wildlife? I got your wildlife! Masai Mara is a Wildlife Refuge thousands of acres big. It is a beautiful magical place for you to drive for hours and enjoy seeing various types of wildlife in their natural habitat (no fences, no cages). Safari vans flood the opening gates for game drives every morning and evening. The area is so big though, you can lose the other vans and not see anyone as far as the eye can see across the jawdropping landscape. The area is in the heart of where the Masai tribe roams. They are friendly nomadic people who make most of their living herding goats. In Masai Mara you can expect to see everything you can imagine. There may be more Zebras than Texas has cattle! Lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, water buffalo, you name it. The "Mara" is a bumpy, earthquake rattling 5 and half hour road trip from Nairobi. You will more than likely have a headache by the time you arrive, but that goes away quickly when entering this amazing, picturesque park.
