A closer connection

The story of this place

The Maasai Mara National Reserve is located in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley and is known for its open grasslands, rolling hills and abundant wildlife. It borders Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park, and together the two ecosystems form the setting for the Great Migration, when vast herds of wildebeest and zebra move in search of fresh grazing. The Mara is also known for its big cats, including lions, cheetahs and leopards, as well as elephants, giraffes and many other species. Visitors can combine wildlife viewing with opportunities to learn about Maasai culture through respectful, locally guided community experiences.
