Kenya’s Most Iconic Safari Landscape

The Maasai Mara National Reserve, located in southwestern Kenya along the Tanzanian border, is one of Africa’s most celebrated and wildlife-rich safari destinations. Forming the northern extension of Tanzania’s Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara is a landscape of endless golden savannahs, rolling hills, acacia-dotted plains, and dramatic river systems that sustain an extraordinary concentration of wildlife.  

Covering approximately 1,510 square kilometers, the reserve is globally renowned for its remarkable biodiversity and exceptional game-viewing throughout the year.  

What Makes the Maasai Mara Extraordinary

• The Great Wildebeest Migration (July–October), when over 1.5 million wildebeest and zebras cross into Kenya from the Serengeti
• Reliable year-round sightings of the Big Five
• One of the highest predator densities in Africa
• Over 450 recorded bird species
• Expansive open landscapes ideal for photography
• The rich cultural heritage of the Maasai people  

The Mara offers both classic reserve-based safaris and exclusive conservancy experiences. Private conservancies surrounding the main reserve provide lower vehicle density, off-road driving opportunities, night game drives, and a more intimate wildlife encounter — ideal for travelers seeking privacy and exclusivity.
