It is very scenic, with craggy hills and everywhere Doum palms following the water courses. Some unusual animal species can be found here; the Reticulated Giraffe, Oryx, Lesser Kudu, Grevy's Zebra, and the Gerenuk, known as the "Giraffe Gazelle". Most of the game viewing takes place around the forests along the river, and this is a good place to spot the elusive leopard. In the afternoon there will be a game drive.

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. |
Day 07 Masai Mara Game Reserve LDBB Early morning and afternoon game drives. Day 08 Masai Mara Game Reserve- Nairobi Morning scheduled service flight back to Nairobi [one hour approximately], and transfer from Wilson Airport for your homeward or onward arrangements. |
