Masai Mara is the largest protected conservation area, composed of open savannah grassland inhabited by various species. The game drive viewing is quite rewarding here. Game driving is a famous activity on African safaris, which is more enjoyed or adventured in 4×4 open roof safari vehicles to have a close, clear view of wild animals as you observe the regulations.

The game drive is usually done in three sessions. That is Morning, which starts at 6:30 am to 10:30 am. This is the best time to catch up with the African sunrise and a rewarding time to see animals actively looking for food or hunting in an open savannah grassland, as well as see cats and leopards going back from their hid outs. You can also be able to see a wide range of animals quench their thirsty near river banks, evening game drive starts at 4 pm till 6:30 pm this is the final time to catch them coming out from their hideouts, resting under the tree shades as they graze in groups. Night game drive which starts at 6 pm till 7:30 pm this is the final time to see nocturnal animals in the park, enjoy cheetahs, cats as they hunt their fellow animals.

The reserve's ecosystem supports many animal species, including the most famous big cats: lions, Leopards, Elephants, Buffaloes, and Black-and-White Rhinos. Other species include Gazelles, Giraffes, Oribis, hartebeests, zebras, hippos, and crocodiles. Note that an armed guide strictly conducts all sessions. Never go to the park without an escort, and we recommend that our RoamRoar Kenya Safaris travelers always pack their clear cameras to film this incredible experience in a lifetime.

The Great Wildebeest Migration is the most spectacular wildlife event ever witnessed. Over two million wildebeests and over ten thousand gazelles and zebras embark on an annual migration across the Mara—Serengeti ecosystem, following an old route searching for water and green pasture.

From July through October, the migration arrives in the plains of Masai Mara National Reserve. It then crosses to Masai Mara with the Mara River Crossing, the deadliest event of the whole migration. The herd faces Nile crocodiles, and the high-speed waters of the river wash away some. Mara River Crossing is not an event for the faint-hearted.

This is the best experience one should try while visiting, unlike the viewing game using a safari vehicle, which is good. Still, when it comes to balloon safaris, you will enjoy more of the park's beauty with an aerial view of the vast Mara plains as you take your breath away, especially during the great migration. This activity is done on an interesting route of the Mara River, where you can have an aerial view of the forests, birds, and aquatic animals before going deep into the savannah to enjoy the thrilling views of the scenic landscape. The balloon safari can be done within one hour, and after coming back for a picnic lunch or breakfast with champagne in the savannah plains, you will be given a certificate as a participant. The balloon safaris are best enjoyed with families and couples on a honeymoon.

Maasai Mara is one of those African reserves and parks where horse riding is done as an activity. Masai Mara is inside the park for the game drive; this was mostly used by long-ago explorers since there were no cars, but today, even if there are safari vans and land cruisers, most guests prefer to use horse rides during their game drives, and it more popular in Maasai Mara.

It gives you an open way of exploring the best of the landscape, passing through other animals with an animal no off truck, only enjoying the fresh breeze of nature. During the migration, the experience is beyond as a well-trained game ranger escorts you. One enjoys more as you go close and close to the animals, even touching their backs.

Masai Mara is also known as a haven for birders, with over 500 bird species, of which more than 60 are raptors. The reserve boasts a large number of ostriches, known as Maasai ostriches. The bird life of the reserve can be encountered in different ecosystem areas that form the reserve, such as open savannah, river banks, great rift valley escarpment, and rock sides. Bird-watching activities can be done throughout the year in Maasai Mara, and some of the list to see include cattle egret, rufous-bellied heron, hamerkop, sacred Ibis, secretary bird, sooty chat, African fish eagle, tawny eagle, long-tailed cormorant, ostrich, sooty chats, the kori bustard and many more to see.

These people live around the reserve and have been here for years, so they have interesting traditional norms and customs.
