ABOUT CAMPING MASAI MARA GAME RESERVE
Located about 270 km away from Nairobi, Masai Mara Game Reserve is most ideal for a budget camping safari in Kenya. With a variety of suitable camping accommodation ranging from budget, mid-range and luxurious camping facilities, set in different locations of Masai Mara and the Greater Mara, Camping has never been better.
Masai Mara Game Reserve is perhaps most famous for its lions. All other members of the "Big Five" are to be found in the Maasai Mara. No easier place in Kenya is good for spotting the cheetah and leopard, animals greatly sought by tourist visitors. You will not be disappointed with great river scenery and resident animals like the hippos and crocodiles at the Mara and Talek Rivers. Some camps are beautifully set by the banks of these rivers.
Good guides know Masai Mara well and depending on your needs and budget, accommodation will be arranged closer to the spectacle you seek. Some areas are proudly more inhabited by the famous Mara lion prides, the great migration herds at certain seasons and times of the year. Our travel office will answer all your questions will recommendations and suggestions on how best to enjoy your masai mara budget camping safari. And as mentioned, the issue here is not about budget camping, though this has become recently popular, but more of camping as a safari 'genre'.
Wildebeests are the dominant inhabitant of the Masai Mara, and their numbers are estimated in the millions. Around July of each year these instinctive animals migrate in a vast ensemble North and North West from the Serengeti plains into the Mara Triangle in search of fresh pasture, and return to the south around Mid November line in 2011 this year. The Great Migration is one of the most impressive natural events worldwide, involving an immensity of herbivores: some 1,300,000 Wildebeest, 360,000 Thomson's Gazelle, and 191,000 Zebra. These numerous migrants are followed along their annual, circular route by a block of hungry predators, most notably lions and hyena.
During this migration season (July to October), Masai Mara is at its height of focus and activity. During the famous Mara River Crossings, it may even be difficult to get accommdation in strategic areas and a we like to inform our prospective clients that a Masai Mara Camping Safari during this time requires advance booking (with required deposits).
Numerous other antelope can be found, including Thomson's and Grant's gazelle, impala, topi and Coke's hartebeest. Large herds of zebra are found through the reserve. The plains are also home to the distinctive Masai giraffe as well as the common giraffe. The large Roan antelope and the nocturnal bat-eared fox, rarely present elsewhere in Kenya, can be seen within the reserve borders. The Maasai Mara is a major research centre for the spotted hyena. Additionally, over 450 species of birdlife have been identified in the park, including vulture, marabou, secretary bird, hornbill, crowned crane, ostrich, long-crested eagle, and pygmy falcon.
Apart from the wildlife, bird life, amazing scenery and satisfactory lodge accommodation, Masai Mara is famous for the Masai People. If you are interested in learning the culture, directly interacting with Masai people and their children, look no further. The Masai Cultural Villages in Masai Mara are better (in pay-back value) than those in Amboseli and perhaps Samburu. A fee of $25 per person is needed to tour this areas.
