Wildlife Galore! 3 Days in the 1500km² Masai Mara!

Getting There - Masai Mara National Reserve is approximately 5hrs drive from Nairobi. You can drive or take a flight to any of the air strips in the park. Attractions - Masai Mara National Reserve is 1500km². Given the size of the park, you never have to wait to spot interesting wildlife. The wildlife ranges from the secretary bird, vultures, ostriches, lions, cheetahs, leopards to hippopotamuses. The chances of finding a pride of lions hunting or feasting are very high. I was very lucky to have spotted the big 5 of the Mara including the elusive leopard. Vehicles are equipped with radios which the guides use to communicate with other guides to share locations of wildlife and in case of emergency. Hotels - There are several options available. I stayed at Mara Legends Camp. They have tents set up with toilets and showers. The team at the camp is very attentive to guest needs. Food & Restaurants - There is a main restaurant and a bar. At the main restaurant they served western and Indian cuisine during the 3 days I stayed there. The food was delicious and the chef accommodates to any special requests. #lion #elephant #cheetah #vulture #sunset #safari #masaimara #masaimaranationalreserve #kenya #magicalkenya #africa
