You'll enjoy an afternoon game drive in the reserve. The Mara is noted for its abundance of lions, particularly the superb black-maned males. You'll see lots of elephants here, often in large herds, as well as — if you're lucky — leopard, cheetah and rhino. All of the Big Five are residents. You're sure to see the African buffalo.

As the northern tip of the vast Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara hosts the spectacular seasonal migration of many thousands of Wildebeest, Zebras and attendant predators. You will arrive in time for lunch, then have an afternoon game drive. This 650 sq kilometers reserve supports the highest density of game to be seen anywhere considering its size.
