It is also home to the Big Five (lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo, and rhino).
   • Have lunch at the camp and relax before departing for the afternoon game drive.
   • The Masai Mara National Reserve is one of the greatest wildernesses in the world. Large mammals are varied and easy to see. The wild animals found in the parks are Masai giraffe, buffalo, eland, and thousands of plains game including impalas, zebras, and Thomson’s and Grant's gazelles.
