Day 3: Lake Nakuru NP-Masai Mara Game Reserve Breakfast at the camp then depart Lake Nakuru NP headed to the world famous Masai Mara Game Reserve arriving in time for lunch. At 1530hrs, take an afternoon game drive in the Masai Mara Game Reserve. During the game drive, you have a chance to see the Big Five including the Lion, Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo, and the elusive Leopard. Maasai Mara Game Reserve covers 700 Square miles of magnificent wilderness. It is the Africa of the imagination; endless reaches of acacia-dotted grasslands studded with hazy hills. It’s the land of African legend: Lion are abundant throughout the park, as are the elephants, giraffes, and a variety of gazelle species and zebra. Cheetah and leopard are also regularly seen and, less commonly, rhino. The annual wildebeest migration, one of nature's few remaining wildlife spectacles, occurs in the Mara where the big animals and their predators are to be present in abundance. Several species of Bee-Eater, the flying rainbow that heads the list of the Mara's birds, occur in the reserve. As well as wildlife, the Maasai Mara is also home to many members of the colorful Maasai tribe who in can September be seen around the borders of the park - Morans (warriors) loping across the plains, young boys herding goats, or elders grouped under a tree discussing matters of the day.
