Masai Mara is ranked amongst the world's finest wildlife sanctuary with well over 450 species of animals having been sighted in this marvel of nature. The endless plains of the Masai Mara are the setting for the world's greatest wildlife spectacle - over 1.5 million animals, including the wildebeest and zebra migration. They are in turn relentlessly tracked by Africa's great predators, including lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas and wild dogs, making for some of the most amazing hunting scenarios witnessed in the wild. All meals are very flexibbly arranged and included. You have an option of making a visit to a Maasai village which is an interesting experience. As you arrive at the village, excited children and adults welcome you with song and dance, At certain times, one of the dancers will jump up and down gracefully. The jumps are several feet high! You will be invited to try jumping -(dancing), too, to your dismay you will be no match for their levitation act!!You will then be welcomed into one of the homesteads in the village, The village huts (called Manyatta) are made of cow dung and clay plastered over stick frames. this is quite practical, the Masai maintain cattle herds, and the dung is always in generous supply. You will have an insight into Maasai life. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn about the history and lifestyle of the Maasai.
