Self-driving in Kenya gives you the flexibility to travel and see places that are not easily visited on group tours or public transport, like the many National parks, game reserves and the coastal beaches.
A Kenyan self-drive safari has multiple advantages over an organized tour. Sure, you can pick from many Kenyan organized safari tours, but you will walk the same tired path that 2 million tourists walked before you.
Independent travel in Kenya offers you freedom that a tour doesn’t. It’s the only way to travel and it should be a real consideration for anyone wanting to visit Kenya. Not only will it allow you to get off the beaten path, it is often considerably cheaper. And we all know a safari tour isn’t cheap.
By traveling independently, you give back to the communities in Kenya. Choosing local guides, staying in Airing’s, taking public transport where possible; these are all ways in which you can support the Kenyan economy.
You should consider the impact of where you stay on safari. Many lodges and camps work to support the local ecosystems and conservation in Kenya, as well as looking after their staff and people within the community. Spend some time checking out these places, rather than relying on tour companies to choose for you.
It gives you the opportunity to watch the big five at your own pace during a self-game drive. Masai Mara is an un-matched wildlife tourist destination in Africa. Speaking of The Big 5, the most 5 dangerous wildlife by the spot hunters to kill in order that include the gigantic Elephants, the Rhinos, the Buffaloes, the Lions and the Leopards can be seen and found in one location of the Masai Mara eco system.
The 1500 sq.kms famous Masai Mara eco system prides in harbouring some of the big cats any safari lover would love to see or encounter. Starring closely into the eyes of a lion or a leopard on kill is unmatched experience.
The Masai Mara reserve in Kenya surprisingly offers beyond the imaginable. On a one-day game drive, there are chances to see the Big 5 and see lots of more wildlife including wildlife actions.
There are high chances to encounter the lions’ trapping antelopes, tearing them up and much more like the elusive leopard carefully stalking its prey, succeed and hauling it up a tree, hyenas trying to steal a lion’s meal while thousands of vultures wrapping, tearing apart and reducing a huge dead elephant into nothing but cercus only. This you can be sure to witness during the Masai Mara safari
On a self-drive in Kenya, you are assured of great views of the Landscape & Great Scenery.
Seen those open plains before on the sea and can’t see the end while on a lake or sea. That’s the endless Savannah plains as well. The pictures, the videos and stories can never do any justice to describing the beauty that beholds the Masai Mara not even hearsay would make a single justice to description.
The only man that has traveled is the man that has been to Africa. The dawn sunsets, the single lonely standing umbrella acacias, the blue lightening hills in the background enveloping huge herds of Giraffe towers and much wildlife beneath are exceptionally magical.
You are at liberty to traverse more in the local communities without limit. The Masai people and culture are something of great interest to learn and visit. The “Maa” speaking people are referred to as the Maasai or Masai being an ethnic group of Nilotic speaking people living in southern Kenya and Northern Tanzania. The Pastoralist tribe which still remains authentic represents a true definition of “Africa”.
This Pastoralist tribe has a wide range of cultural norms and beliefs you would like to know and learn with no guided travel limits. They offer culture encounters to the Masai villages and demonstrating how they have lived in the early centuries until day to date.
The Masai Mara national reserve sits in the pastoralist land of the Masai people and has been involved in conservation practices to have a great and famous Masai Mara every traveler feels proud to visit.
