Game Reserve L-DBB
After an
early morning game drive you are transferred to the airstrip for your
scheduled service flight back to Nairobi [ one hour approximately ] where
you have lunch at the famous Carnivore Restaurant , and the chance to try
wild game meat such as Gazelle, Giraffe, Zebra, Ostrich and Crocodile, as
well as more traditional meals! You
then continue by scheduled service flight to Masai Mara Game Reserve [one
hour approximately]. You
are transferred to the Mara
Serena Lodge. This Reserve is one of Africa's best known wildlife areas, and is part of
the Serengeti ecosystem. A
land of undulating hills and rolling grasslands it supports a large animal
population. Even
a casual visitor is treated to the sight of lions in prides sometimes
numbering more than thirty beasts with a handsome black maned male in
dominance; a Cheetah at great speed runs down its prey; a leopard in the
lower branches with its kill. In the Mara river there are crocodiles
sunning themselves on the banks, and Hippos
playing in the water. Elephant , Cape Buffalo, Giraffe, Topi,
Gazelle are all in abundance,
and during the months of July to September the great migration of Wildebeest
and Zebras spill over from the Serengeti. The sight of these
beasts legging it across the Mara River, avoiding both the crocodiles in the
river, and the predators harassing them from behind is amazing, and the topic of
some of the most spectacular photography ever seen. In
the afternoon there is a game drive followed
by dinner and overnight. |
