It is also a perfect destination for bird watching, with over 500 bird species recorded in the park.
Explore the Maasai Mara with daily open-vehicle game drives led by professional guides. Night drives offer opportunities to see nocturnal animals; guided bush walks provide up-close encounters with the diverse fauna, flora, and smaller creatures of the African bush. Other experiences include early morning hot air balloon rides over the reserve, horseback safaris, spa treatments, traditional Maasai warrior dancing displays, and visits to a nearby Maasai village.

Lindi Weeks - Thank you!!!
Lindi Weeks has been assisting us in planning a 4 day safari in the Klaserie Game Reserve. She has been so amazing, assisting us so beautifully with all the decisions to be made. She fell ill with tonsilitis and not even this stopped her from taking calls to answer all our silly questions, even after hours!! We thank you, Lindi and appreciate you. Onika Amell

Lindi Weeks, our luxury safari consultant from Safari.com, went above and beyond helping us lay out a very complicated trip I was asking for. Between 2 helicopters and 3 private planes we save 2 days stuck in airports. I will defiantly always use them to book my Africa adventures. Todd
