3 DAY 2 NIGHTS MAASAI MARA WILDLIFE SAFARI TOUR PACKAGE IN KENYA

Overview of the 3 Day 2 nights Maasai Mara Wildlife Safari tour package in Kenya

This 3 Day 2 nights Maasai Mara Wildlife Safari tour package in Kenya offers an amazing opportunity to discover Africa and her famous wildlife. Whenever most tourists or travelers think of a safari inside Africa, what often come to their mind are the amazing Maasai Mara national Reserve and the wildebeest Migration. The Masai Mara has one of the richest concentrations of wildlife in the world. Masai Mara covers an area measuring 1500 square kilometers. It stretches from the western arm of the Rift valley, through the land of the Masai and to the Narok County. The Masai Mara is an extension of what is known as Serengeti National Park of Tanzania – only separated by the Mara River. The open savanna plains, grasslands, acacia trees allow 95 animals species to thrive. They include zebras, lions, giraffe, wildebeest, crocodiles, hippos, hyrax, buffaloes, cheetahs, warthogs, leopards, rhinos, elephants, jackals and countless antelopes (Impala, gazelle, and waterbucks)

The Masai Mara is arguably the best tourist attraction in the magical Kenya. A wildlife safari in the Masai Maraa is considered one of the best wildlife experiences in Africa one can ever get. The annual Wildebeest migration from Masai Mara to the Serengeti plains of Tanzania is considered to be one of the top 8 natural wonders of the world. During this migration herbivorous animals follow the rains and pass through great challenges including having to deal with crocodiles, lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and leopards.  Over 1.6 million wildebeest and 200,000 zebras take part in the migration.

Our 3 Day 2 nights Maasai Mara Wildlife Safari tour package in Kenya will allow you to not only spot most of Africa’s famous mammals but also have encounters with the Masai tribes in their Manyattas. A safari in the Masai Maraa can be combined with gorilla trekking in Uganda in our 8 day 7nights Maasai Mara Wildlife Safari and Uganda gorilla trekking Tour package in Bwindi forest or Mgahinga national park. This package will make for you a truly memorable experience in Africa. If you have already visited the Mara, you might consider our 3day 2 nights Serengeti wildlife safari tour package in Tanzania. For those who have little time to spare while in Kenya, our 2 Day 1night Masai Mara Short Wildlife Safari Tour in Magical Kenya may be more suitable for you.
