Mara River is a magnificent river flowing through East Africa, primarily in Kenya and Tanzania. Its journey begins from the Mau Escarpment in Kenya and winds its way southward, crossing the world-renowned Masai Mara National Reserve and Serengeti National Park.

Spanning approximately 395 kilometres in length, Mara River boasts abundant water that sustains diverse wildlife and offers an awe- inspiring sight during the annual wildebeest migration.

This enchanting river is a wildlife enthusiast’s paradise. Witness one of nature’s greatest spectacles as millions of wildebeest, zebras, and other herbivores brave the crocodile- infested waters during their dramatic migration. The riverbanks are adorned with lush vegetation,
making it an idyllic spot for birdwatchers too. Don’t forget to explore the captivating surroundings of the Masai Mara and Serengeti, with their majestic landscapes and diverse wildlife.

Experience the thrill of safari tours, both on land and water, to spot the Big Five and other incredible wildlife. For an unforgettable adventure, take a hot air balloon ride above the vast savannahs, providing a spectacular aerial view of the river and its inhabitants. Fishing enthusiasts can also enjoy catch-and-release fishing excursions with local guides.

The ideal time to visit Mara River is during the Great Migration, which typically occurs between July and October. Witnessing the river crossings is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. For bird lovers, the months from November to April are perfect as migratory birds flock to the region. Remember, weather conditions can affect travel plans, so aim for the dry season (July to October) to ensure optimal wildlife sightings.
