Maasai Mara
Maasai Mara
When to go, how to sit in a vehicle, what luxury actually costs.
The Mara rewards early rising and long sitting. Book conservancies if you want night drives and fewer vehicles at a sighting.
Fly Wilson at dawn. Pack a down layer even in July. Ask about balloon weather the night before, not the morning of.
Tip: the best hour is often the one after breakfast, when other cars have gone back to camp.
