Venture out on a safari in Africa's most famous wildlife area: Masai Mara. The image of acacia trees on an endless grass plain epitomises Africa for many, and then add a Masai warrior and some cattle to the picture and the conversation need go no further.
The annual wildebeest migration through Serengeti and Masai Mara is the largest mass movement of land mammals on the planet – with more than a million animals following the rain to the watering holes in the region.
That is not where the game viewing ends; the large pride of lions, herds of elephants and towers of giraffes gather in the grasslands to mention but a few. Aside from traditional vehicle safaris, game walks and hot-air ballooning over the Mara plains has become almost essential.
Take this four-day safari in one of the best traditional tented camps in the Masai Mara and enjoy game drives, bush breakfasts and picnic lunches in the heart of this fascinating landscape.Venture out on a safari in Africa's most famous wildlife area: Masai Mara.
