Kenya straddles the centre of the Great Rift Valley, the vast prehistoric fissure that stretches from Jordan to Mozambique. From the North to the South of Kenya, the valley is lined with a series of freshwater and soda based volcanic lakes. We shall have a stopover at the rift valley view point where you will have the amazing view of this great landscape.
- The jewel in Africa's crown, Maasai Mara, is host to the most spectacular array of wildlife. Lions are found in abundance throughout the park, as are elephant, giraffe, a variety of gazelle species, and zebra. Cheetah and leopard are also regularly seen and, if lucky, you may also find rhino. Game viewing is never dull in the Mara and patience is often rewarded with unique sightings: a pride of lion stalking their prey; a solitary leopard retrieving its kill from the high branches of an acacia tree; a male wildebeest sparring to attract females into their harem; a herd of elephant protecting their young from opportunistic predators. The annual wildebeest migration traditionally is present in the Mara from July through September. During this time of year, nature's drama unfolds before your very eyes. Besides wildlife, the Maasai Mara is also home to many members of the colourful Maasai tribe who may be seen around the borders of the park.
