Maasai Morans

On this day,we pick you up from your hotel or at agreed pick up point to begin our journey to the world`s famous Masai Mara.This is around 7:30am in the morning and the city is crazy with traffic jam,good thing though,the traffic only holds those entering into the city.

 There is a beautiful sunrise from the western horizon,these is among some of the beauties Kenya is blessed to have.The equator transects this land into halves.We head towards the central Kenya and bordering the Great Rift valley,here we have stop overs at the view point to see the valley from the top.

The visibility is panoramic and the beauty is just amazing. Also at this view point the are several curio shops that sells souvenirs to visitors...if  you love to take something back with you and you have a chance to taste Kenya`s authentic coffee or tea before we proceed to Masai Mara.

After about half an hour break we proceed again with our journey,en-route,you will be able to see the culture around,the lifestyle, and the indigenous settlements.There are large tracts of green wheat and maize plantations along the way.There are beautiful man-made and natural forest that are habitats to some wild animals like baboons,monkeys and several small animals.

We get into the valley and here we can easily spot gnus and zebras.The land is semi arid with several scattered acacia and cactus trees.Also we can spot the Maasai morans who are mainly the native community that stays around here and that are still preserving and practicing their culture.They are nomads and move most of the time in search of pasture for their livestock.

Here we are,at the gates of the Park,several animals..from small to huge.Read more...
