Kenya is a cultural and geographical microcosm and the age-old cradle of
mankind. A natural paradise and a land of contrasts, her national parks and
reserves rank as some of the finest in the world and include the world
famous Maasai Mara, Amboseli and Mt. Kenya - continentalsafaris.com.
They exist as total wildlife sanctuaries where human habitation is
prohibited and animals roam wild and free. As a holiday destination, Kenya
is unrivalled; not only for the diversity of her terrain which stretches
from the snow-capped peaks of Mt. Kenya to the silver-blue ribbon of the
Indian Ocean, but also for the extraordinary richness of her flora, fauna,
bird and marine life.
In addition to all these remarkable gifts, it is undoubtedly also the
overwhelming hospitality of the Kenyan people, which leaves a lasting
impression on all those who visit this great country.
In this country of breathtaking vistas, view its vast assemblages of plains
game together with their associated predators. Mara has the largest
population of lions to be found in Kenya. Other animals to be seen here
include Buffalo, Black Rhino, Hippopotamus, Leopard, Cheetah, Common Zebra,
Coke's Hartebeest, White-bearded Gnu, Oribi, Warthog and Thomson's and
Grant's Gazelles. The bird life of Mara is as profuse as its mammalian
fauna. Masai Mara Camping Tour, Masai Mara Budget Camping Safari, Kenya

Masai Mara - an extension of Tanzania's Serengeti National Park. This is
serene vast country of breath-taking vistas, a panorama of vast rolling
plains and rounded hills, of intermittent groves of acacia woodlands and
dense thickets of scrub. The Mara River and its tributaries which are
margined by luxuriant riverine forest bisect the whole land . And in every
direction there are seemingly endless herds of game animals. Kenya camping

The Masai Mara is Kenya's greatest wildlife reserve, a large extension of
open plain grasslands, woodlands and smooth hills rich in some of Africa's
most thrilling wildlife. Occupying an area of 320 km² in south-western
Kenya, within the Great Serengeti ecosystem, it's effectively the northern
continuation of the Serengeti National Park and game reserve in Tanzania

The Masai Mara's quantity and variety of wildlife is breathtaking. The
reserve is perhaps most famous for its lions, which are found in large
numbers, and for the annual wildebeest migration, known as the Great
Migration, largely considered one of World's most exceptional natural
phenomena. Many other distinctive African wildlife are to be found in the
Mara, from elephants, antelopes and giraffes to leopards and hyenas.
Hippopotami and crocodiles are found in large groups all along the Mara and
Talek Rivers. There is a reasonable population of the endangered black
rhinoceros (in 2000 37 individuals were recorded) and of Cheetah, although
their numbers are also threatened, chiefly due to tourist disruption of
their day-time hunting. Masai Mara Camping Tour, Masai Mara Budget Camping

Named for the Maasai people (the traditional inhabitants of the area) and
the Mara River which divides it, the reserve is basically a mammal park, and
although more than 450 bird species inhabit the area, birdwatchers could
remain disappointed, as its much harder to spot one given bird species that,
say, an elephant or, obviously, wildebeest.
And its precisely the large bearded antelope of the acacia savanna and
short-grass plains, known also as gnu, the most numerous inhabitant of the
Masai Mara (as it is of the Serengeti), with an estimated population of
almost 2 million individuals living in the Great Serengeti ecosystem. Around
July of each year, these ungainly social grazers migrate in a vast ensemble
north from the Serengeti plains in search of fresh pasture, and return to
the south around October. This circular, clockwise migratory route, the
Great Wildebeest Migration, is one of the world's greatest natural events.
Each year the promise of rain and fresh grass brings more than 1.3 million
Wildebeest into a single massive herd, which makes a spectacular entrance on
the southern plains of the Mara in a massive, surging column of wildlife.
Numerous other antelope can be found, including Thomson's and Grant's
gazelle, impala, topi and Coke's hartebeest. Large herds of zebra are found
through the reserve. The plains are also home to the distinctive Maasai
giraffe as well as the common giraffe. The Maasai Mara is a major research
centre for the spotted hyena. Additionally, over 450 species of birdlife
have been identified in the park.
The Mara river, the reserve's backbone, traverses north to south heading for
its westbound way unto lake Victoria, through the Tanzanian park. Its
riverbanks (as well as those of the Mara's multiple tributary streams) are
bordered by dense riverine forests where many the reserve's bird species are
to be found. It's here, on the banks of the Mara River, where the migratory
herds of the Great Migration make their mass crossing, that one of the most
dramatic spectacles of nature is consumed. Live and death meet as the
wildebeest, terrorized by the crocodile infested waters and churning
currents yet obliged by their instinct, attempt to cross the river into the
rich grasslands of the northern Masai Mara. Masai Mara Camping Safaris,

The entire area of the park is nestled within the enormous Great Rift Valley
that extends from the Mediterranean Sea to South Africa. The terrain of the
reserve is primarily open grassland, with clusters of the distinctive acacia
tree in the south-east region. The western border is the Esoit Oloololo
Escarpment of the Rift Valley, and wildlife tends to be most concentrated
here, as the swampy ground means that access to water is always good and
tourist disruption is minimal. The easternmost border is 224 km from
Nairobi, and hence it is the eastern regions which are most visited by
tourists - continentalsafaris.com.
