Masai Mara National Reserve

With 1,510 square kilometers is the most famous national reserve. Its landscapes offer the vision of vast savannahs, dotted with acacias.

The biggest attraction is the annual migration of wildebeest, between July and August, in which millions of these animals move from northern Seregeti to Masai Mara, later returning to the south in October. The image offered is an infinite row, along pastures, offering an unforgettable experience.

For those looking for the big five, it is the perfect park, although rhinos and leopards do not look so easy, as lions, buffalos and elephants.

One of the most emblematic scenes is the crossing of the Mara river, where hungry crocodiles await the arrival of the wildebeest. However we need some fortune, to match the exact moment of it.
