Maasai Mara Reserve is the most popular reserve known for the big skies, open savannahs as featured in the film ''Out of Africa''. It was also accorded the status of the Seventh Wonder of the World because of the annual wildebeest migration, where over 2 million of wildebeest cross from Serengeti to the Mara.
Besides this, the reserve boasts of the ''big five'' (elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion & leopard) plus plenty of plain wild animals that include zebra, giraffe, impala, topi, giraffe, Thomson's gazelle, hyenas, cheetah, jackal, bat-eared foxes and birdlife.
