• It’s the stage for the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles traverse the Mara River—a spectacle unmatched in the natural world.
• The Mara’s dense predator population, including lions, cheetahs, and leopards, ensures thrilling game drives.
• Its wide-open savannahs are iconic and awe-inspiring, a stark contrast to Samburu’s arid charm.
