Amboseli Maasai Mara Tsavo

No trip Kenya is truly complete until visiting the vast plains of the Maasai Mara. As an extension of the great Serengeti National Park in Tanzania, this area of southern Kenya provides perhaps the best glimpse of game and wildlife since the coming of the white man. The region covers over 700 sq mi of plains that is home to an astounding amount of game, often in one place at one time. It is no wonder that the standard rule among Kenya outfitters is to save the southern experience for last since anything that follows will seem anticlimactic. There are four primary parks that showcase the wonders of this spectacular region including Amboseli, Maasai Mara, Tsavo, and Taita Hills. Because of this area's magnificent reputation, tourists often seem as common as the wildlife. Numerous lodges provide accommodations and safari experiences for travelers at a variety of prices.
