Our Safari was well organised and was better than we thought. The wildlife was amazing as well as the scenery. Food and accoodation were sometimes much better than we had expected. And our guide was a very responsible driver and he really made great efforts to spot as many animals as possible.
I hope to repeat this experience soon.

This is a very beautiful place with a lot of wildlife to view but the most enjoyable part of this safari was witnessing the wildebeest migration.

We stayed at Governors' camp on two occasions.This is a true wild life experience that would be hard to better. We would return here tomorrow with no hesitation
The Maasai Mara National Reserve is a large game reserve in Narok County

Maasai Mara is the epitome of an African Safari. You have every typical African grassland animal you could want to see, a vast expanse of land protected land, and indigenous tribes of people who still live in their traditional way. We went to meet some of them and see their village, which can be seen here: http://youtu.be/p8wUKAiRai4
Maasai Mara has it all. Hands down.

As our driver said: this is the real safari! We were there for the migration, so there were zebra and wildebeest as far as the eye could see. Tough to get to, but well worth the trip.

What else is there to say? The 'daddy' of safari destinations with lots and lots of wildilfe spolit only slightly but quite a lot of safari vehicles, which is understandble.

This is the park with the most wildlife in Kenya. It's a huge area and that makes it a more "wild experience" without any fences in sight. Although it get's lots of visitors, you rarely feel disturbed by other tour groups. We got to see all the big five as well as lots of other wildlife. We came close up to a huge group of elephants, got to see several lions with cubs, cheetas hunting, Masai Giraffe, Pumbaas, Hyenas, Gazelles etc etc. The landscape is mostly Savanna with an Acacia tree every now and then.

We were there for the migration saw great amounts of animals - all the big five minus the rino. It was a bit more croweded than the other parks we went too. Had a cheetah jump on the hood of our safari truck. Overall great experience! Must see and do!

More animals than at Amboseli, perhaps due to the fact that the drivers could go off-road to find them.
