This was my first safari and its safe to say it won't be my last!
The lodge we stayed at was on the border to the park which meant we could start the game drives early and even do one late afternoon/evening before it was dark. The lodge had been arranged for us and was full board, with the lodge providing packed lunch for us when on the full day game drive. The room and staff were all lovely and pleasant.
But the main event was the game drives, on these we entered the Maasai Mara and experienced its beauty and all the amazing wildlife.
Thanks to our guides knowledge (Kelvin), we navigated through the park spotting many of the animals that call it home, seeing some of these animals up close in the wild is breathtaking. Kelvins knowledge of the park itself, the animals, the land and history was also impressive and only added to the experience.
The experience included travel to the lodge and back to our hotel in Nairobi with a lunch stop on the way back.
