Enjoy lunch either in the dining hall or under the shade of an indigenous tree. You will enjoy a few minutes of relaxation before you depart for an afternoon game drive in search of the Big Five. Masai Mara is named after the traditional Maasai inhabitants and the Mara River. You will be driven by the river which is a great place to spot wildlife. This area is a photographer’s delight where, with any luck, you will be able to take amazing pictures of the hippo and crocodile in the water. The small size of the lake area funnels all varieties of animals into a tight space.

Day 2: Masai Mara National Reserve Game Drives
