The Maasai Mara is one of Kenya's premier game parks, boasting one of the world's largest concentrations of animals—home to almost 100 different species. These include lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, hippos, wildebeests, crocodiles, gazelles, and rhinos, to name just a few. It is also a perfect destination for bird watching, with over 500 bird species recorded in the park.
Explore the Maasai Mara with daily open-vehicle game drives led by professional guides. Night drives offer opportunities to see nocturnal animals; guided bush walks provide up-close encounters with the diverse fauna, flora, and smaller creatures of the African bush. Other experiences include early morning hot air balloon rides over the reserve, horseback safaris, spa treatments, traditional Maasai warrior dancing displays, and visits to a nearby Maasai village.

Leigh-Ann Croeser from Safari.com was fantastic
Leigh-Ann from Safari.com was great to work with to plan our group safari trip. She was able to get me on the priority waitlist for a lodge that I liked, which ended up working out for our group during my preferred dates. Leigh-Ann was responsive and provided various tour recommendations for us to decide on the best option for us. There were a few email and name typos from Leigh-Ann that I had to correct, but other than that, I had a great experience.

Dolan was terrific
Dolan was terrific. He got back to us immediately to answer all of our questions. And was so nice to hold a room for a couple of days because of my moms passing. It gave us time to finalize her arrangements and time to book our trip. I would highly recommend using him to book your trip!!
