Kenya — Where the safari story began

Kenya is the home of the original East African safari. The Masai Mara — the northern reach of the Serengeti ecosystem — delivers some of the most concentrated big-cat sightings on the continent, and from July the Mara River crossings are one of nature's most dramatic events. Beyond the Mara lie diverse habitats, rich cultures and the warm welcome Kenya is known for.

The jewel of Kenya's safari circuit — open grasslands famous for lion, cheetah and leopard, and the spectacular Mara River crossings between July and October.

Great Migration

Great Migration

From around July the herds move north into the Mara, and the river crossings draw predators and one of the greatest wildlife spectacles on Earth.

Maasai culture

Maasai culture

The Mara region is the heartland of the Maasai, whose traditions and warm hospitality add a rich cultural dimension to any safari.
