The Masai Mara is a unique area adjoining the great Serengeti plains, which form part of the Serengeti plains national park – a 9,200 square mile Wilderness of semi-arid grasslands and woodland in Tanzania’s north western quarter, home to some of the greatest numbers of wildlife on earth. The Serengeti’s pulse beats to the migration cycle as vast herds of wildebeest and zebra surge up the plains in search of their hooves and the snarl of the predators that follow them – truly one of the last great natural wonders of the world.
