Going to Kenya on holidays are times that we all look forward to. But while in Kenya, the trouble of finding the best place to go and how to get there can make many peoples' enjoyment .
The Masai Mara National Reserve is on the lips of every tourist destined to Kenya. It is actually the reason why thousands of tourists are jetting into the country daily From all over the world. It was only recently declared the 7th Wonder of the World. This Reserve is a perfect example of Savanah grassland of the African plateau. It covers 1,500 square kilometers of grassland and shrubs and is home to the Maasai, and a variety of wild animals scattered strategically within the reserve. The most momorable attraction here is the annual migration of wilderbeast in August to the nothern expansive Serengeti Plains and October acrosss the the Mara river to the South in search of Pasture. The whole of this 7th Wonder of the world is watered exclusively by the Mara River and itself fed by the Orare orok river, Keju Ronkai River and its major tributary, the Talek, in addition to a myriad number of seasonal springs crisscrossing this expansive land, Giving the wild animals ample amount of water during most of the season. The Masai Mara reserve is also home to Olpunyaia Swamp, the Musiara swamp and Enkoiguaatet salt lick area Providing an astonishing amount of wildlife that converge here in search of water and salt licks. Among the wild animals that you will be treated to at the 7th worder of the world are the Big Cats i.e. the Lions, the Cheatah and the hard to spot, albeit common Leopard. You will Definately see Masai Girrafes, Elephants, Zebras, Baboons, Jackals, Hyenas, Bufallos, Zebras, Gazelles, Black rhinos and Off coarse the wildebeest. All these animals existing Harmoniously and interactively within the National park. All the Lodges Dotted all over the Masai Mara will offer Wildlife drives and nature walks, But i would advise you to organise your Gave drive with a tour company in Nairobi. With their trained personnel your game drive on the 7th worder of the world will be a memorable event. Nimrod Maina is a tour operator;africanwildexpedition@gmail.com
