Discover the Maasai Mara National Reserve, the most famous large game reserve in Narok County, Kenya, contiguous with the Serengeti National Park in Mara Region, Tanzania. Visit lake Nakuru to spot the thousands of pink Flamingos among other wild beasts.
TOUR DESCRIPTION
The Maasai Mara National Reserve is globally famous for its exceptional population of lions, leopards and cheetahs, and the annual migration of zebra, Thomson’s gazelle, and wildebeest to and from the Serengeti every year, known as the Great Migration. All members of the “Big Five” (lion, leopard, African elephant, cape buffalo, and black rhinoceros) along with hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, and bat-eared foxes are found in the Maasai Mara. Hippopotami and crocodiles are found in large groups in the Mara and Talek rivers.
Lake Nakuru National Park is best known for its thousands, sometimes millions of flamingos nesting along the shores. The surface of the shallow lake is often hardly recognizable due to the continually shifting mass of pink. The park provides sanctuary for the black rhinos, southern white rhinos, Rothschild’s giraffe, Waterbucks, East African lions, cheetahs and leopards.
