What people say about Maasai Mara National Reserve

Masai mara is a magical place, where nature has extended its beauty beyond our imagination. If you are an animal enthusiast, this place is for you. We went here in early December where the rains start. Rains make this place a beautiful heaven. You get less dust around and the sky is always beautiful and not harsh. Also the grassland becomes greener and that adds to the beauty. If you are a photographer and a bird enthusiast, Nov-Dec is a great time to visit masai mara. We loved the stay here, accommodation, people and food was very very good. People here are friendly and will help you a lot. We had great experience interacting with locals and they all were friendly. Avoid the souvenir shops here because they charge out of the world prices for small items. I would definitely love to visit again !! If I have ever seen magic, it has been in Masai Mara.

Maasai Mara was an extraordinary safari experience, we traveled there from Nairobi and we stayed in the park for two nights. We were traveling two families with children between 2-5 years old. We booked a package with a local guide called Simon, who has his own safari company (see www.swbtravel.com for more info). Simon helped us to make all reservations for our stay and payment for entrance to the national park etc. That made the trip so much easier. When traveling with kids comfort is a key, therefore we stayed at a lodge instead of tent camp. We stayed at a camp called Mara Serena Safari Lodge, the pool by the Lodge was very much appreciated by the kids and we stayed in small huts. The service and food was great and family-friendly. The Lodge felt very authentic and the view was just amazing, we were able to see both elephants and giraffes from our room. While staying within the park you have the advantage that the safari and animals is just minutes away. We went on multiple game rides watching for animals and Simon was able to show us many of the "bucket list safari animals" including four out of the "big five" and many more. I believe that the trip wouldn't have been as nice experience if it wasn't for our guide. I can definitely recommend booking a private guide. It makes all the hustle go away and you can just enjoy the ride. We saw no musquitos during our stay but remember to take your malaria meds.
