I would highly recommend that any of my friends or family who may go to this Masai Mara National Reserve that they pay the extra cost to fly in and out!
I can say that, without a doubt, the journey was worth the experience!
We stayed in the Sarova Mara Game Club "Tents". They are so luxurious that it's hard to call them tents.
As a side note in each of the 3 Safari locations we have visited the camps shut down their generators usually from 2pm to 6pm and again from 12am until 6am to save power. Just after midnight, on Thursday, June 9th, we received a "Whats App" message that my brother, Dean, had a tear in his aorta (Aortic dissection). I did not sleep for the entire night. I sent healing energy and prayed that he would live.
In the morning, with the power restored we received the positive news we had prayed for....surgery went well, the surgeons saved his life. He was within minutes of not being with us. Thank goodness for miracles!
This Masai Mara National Reserve is AMAZING, while at times it can get overrun with tourists, it is MASSIVE and is best known for:
the Wildebeest Migration, the HUGE savannas of golden grasslands, big skies and Lion sightings.
