Amboseli Safari Highlights
The Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru are two of the most exciting places to visit on a safari in Kenya. In the Masai Mara, you can see amazing animals like lions, elephants, and giraffes in their natural habitat. The open grasslands make it easy to spot these creatures, especially during the Great Migration when thousands of wildebeests and zebras cross the plains. At Lake Nakuru, the beautiful lake is famous for its stunning pink flamingos that gather by the shore. You can also see rhinos, both black and white, as well as many other birds and wildlife. Both places offer incredible views and unforgettable experiences, making them top spots for anyone wanting to explore the wild side of Africa.

It is in the Mara that perhaps the most spectacular event of the natural world takes place: the great migration. This is the annual migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti (in Tanzania) in search of water and pasture.
