So you are planning a visit to the world famous Maasai Mara and you want to completely squeeze out all the fun and adventure on limited time, here is few ideas. A hot air balloon ride is one of the most exclusive and adventurous way to go on safari. Get picked up from your hotel very early before sunrise and board a balloon and marvel at the aerial view of the Mara savannah dotted with acacia trees and bustling with wildlife from majestic elephants to towering giraffes that act as surveillance for other herbivores, encounter a pride of lions and get to hear hyenas laughing all around. Afterwards enjoy breakfast served in the bush and later drive deeper into the mara for a full day game drive to give you a deeper glimpse into the ecosystem. For lunch pick a tree and setup picnic in the bush and enjoy serenity at its best. It’s said when you visit Rome live like the Romans, so visit a Maasai village to learn how to live like the maasai who are the guardians of the Mara.Get to learn their social, economic and religious way of life. Spend time in their houses “Manyatta” that are built from a mixture of cow dung, mud, sticks, patience and love. After dinner enjoy a campfire surrounded by the tribesmen and fellow adventurers.
