The Maasai Mara National Reserve is Kenya's most celebrated wildlife destination, a seamless northern extension of the Serengeti ecosystem. Famous for the spectacular river crossings where hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra brave crocodile-infested waters during the annual Great Wildebeest Migration from July to October, the Mara is equally renowned for its extraordinary lion population, the Big Five, and the timeless presence of Maasai warriors across the surrounding plains. Private conservancies bordering the reserve permit off-road driving and night game drives unavailable inside the main reserve.
