As promised, the imposing shape of Mount Kilimanjaro dominates the landscape of this small park, where wild animals are often spotted through the sparse undergrowth.

Today will be a veritable festival of game-viewing!
The Masai Mara Reserve remains the most exciting wildlife ecosystem in the natural world.

The picturesque appeal of the tree-studded savannah plains, the moderate climate and the diversity of wild game species make it a unique location for game-viewing activities.
