Itinerary description

Impressive landscapes 😲. Despite being in the dry season, you could see a lot of water 💧. Ponds, streams and rivers. The Marathon for example. You see animals all you want. Especially wildebeest and zebras. Tomson gazelles, teepees, ostriches, elephants, giraffes, hyenas, warthogs, etc. The lions are more elusive but looking for them, being day and hot they are sleeping and they don't even flinch when you get close. We saw a gepard that, being surrounded by cars, didn't even flinch. And a leopard dozing on a bank and although it was some distance away it didn't flinch either.
A unique experience not to be forgotten.
If you do not speak English, I recommend hiring a guide-driver in Spanish. It is a little more expensive but it is worth it and you fully enjoy it. Normally and to be able to see everything well, a minimum of two days is used.
That is if the inevitable visit to the Masai village does not take it away from you. But is it worth it. Because of how antagonistic they are to our culture.
