Cost: $5,600 per person (Minimum 4 pax)
Explore the iconic Mara Triangle, a spectacular 510 km² wilderness that forms about one-third of the Maasai Mara National Reserve. This area is uniquely defined by the Oloololo Escarpment, the Mara River, and the international border with Tanzania, creating a distinct triangular shape.
The Mara Triangle boasts one of the highest densities of wildlife in Africa. Here, on a lucky day, you could witness all of the famous Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, buffalo) within just a couple of square kilometers. It’s also home to cheetahs, wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, rock hyraxes, and a stunning variety of other species.
Game drives in the Mara Triangle offer unparalleled opportunities to witness dramatic wildlife interactions, including the epic Great Migration, where millions of animals traverse the Mara River. The best time to experience the migration’s river crossings is between July and October, but wildlife sightings are impressive year-round.
