Arriving in the Masai Mara Game Park in the late afternoon we have a well-deserved bath before relaxing on the luxury camp grounds or in the bar/restaurant. We have our dinner and then an overnight stay at the luxury camp.

Since it is forbidden to cycle in the wildlife sanctuary of Masai Mara we go on game viewing drives in our customized safari van. There are both morning and afternoon game drives and we are able to flash out the large variety of wildlife that are found here. Maasai Mara Game Reserve is Kenya’s finest wildlife sanctuary. Including migrants and well over 450 species of animals have been recorded here. Although July, August, and September are the months when the Mara plains are filled with migrating wildebeests and zebras, there is also resident wildlife year round. The famous Maasai tribesmen live very close to the game reserve. Dinner and overnight will be at the Sentrim Mara Luxury Camp Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
