Maasai Mara
The great migration, and the best big-cat viewing on the continent.
About Maasai Mara
Twelve hundred square kilometres of open grassland, bisected by the Mara and Talek rivers, where two million wildebeest cross each July and October, and where lions, cheetah and elephant share the plains with cattle herders who have walked the same paths for centuries.
