During a 3-day Masai Mara safari, you can expect to see a rich variety of iconic African wildlife, including the famous Big Five: lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros, although rhinos can be more elusive as they prefer dense bush cover. The Masai Mara is also renowned for its big cats, such as cheetahs and servals, and you may spot leopards resting in trees.
Other commonly seen animals include giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, Thomson's gazelles, hyenas, and various antelope species. The Mara River area offers sightings of crocodiles and hippos, adding to the diversity of wildlife encounters. Birdlife is abundant, with over 500 species recorded in Kenya, including flamingos, eagles, and vultures, making it a paradise for bird watchers as well.
If your safari coincides with the migration season (July to October), you may witness the spectacular wildebeest migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras cross the plains and rivers, a breathtaking natural event. Additionally, you might encounter baby elephants and observe predator-prey dynamics such as lions hunting or hyenas scavenging.

The Big Five: lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, rhinoceros
