Your second complete day in Maasai Mara provides another 8 to 10 hours of wildlife exploration and may cover around 70 to 110 kilometres. Our guide will select different routes through rolling grassland, river corridors, marshes, wooded areas and short-grass plains. The day gives you more time to photograph wildlife, observe animal behaviour and enjoy the open landscapes at the beginning of the year. A picnic lunch will be included before continuing with the afternoon safari.
