The Maasai Mara is the heart of Kenya’s safari country, famed for dramatic predator sightings, wide-open savannahs and world-class wildlife viewing. The annual Great Migration brings millions of wildebeest and zebra through the reserve.

Best times to visit

• July to October for migration and excellent game viewing
• June and November for quieter game drives and green scenery
• Early morning drives offer the best chance to see lions, cheetah and elephant
