Have a full day spent exploring the park in search of the Big Five. An optional hot air balloon safari can be arranged at an extra cost of US$ 450 per person. Mara offers wildlife in such variety and abundance that it is difficult to believe: over 450 species of animals have been recorded here. You'll easily see lions, rhinos, hippos, crocodiles, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, warthogs, hyenas, jackals, wild dogs, buffalo, leopards, many kinds of antelopes and elephants.
Mara is where the most spectacular event in the natural world takes place. This is the annual migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra from Serengeti, Tanzania, in search of water and pasture. Following on their heels are the predators of the savanna—lion, cheetah, wild dog, jackal, hyena, and vultures. An optional visit to a local Maasai village is at a cost of US$25 per person not included in the price.
