MAASAI MARA OVERVIEW

There are few places in Africa that compare to the Mara. It is widely regarded as one of the finest spots for predator viewing in all of Africa. Game is ever present in large numbers throughout the year with the peak months (i.e. the migration) being August to October. That said, it is a fantastic area for predators right throughout the year. The migration can be found earlier in the Serengeti (Tanzania) from January to early March, and again June to September.

Peak months

August - October

Epic suggests

4 - 5 days / 3 - 4 nights

 

Sample itinerary

  • Take a hot air balloon ride over the plains of the reserve
  • Visit a local Maasai manyatta to see how these proud stately people live
