On foot, you gain a very different perspective of the safari experience. Your senses are heightened as you begin to look for the slightest flicker of movement through the bushes, or the faintest sound coming from ahead.

Setting out on a walking safari in the Maasai Mara ecosystem not only offers you the chance to stretch your legs, but also the opportunity to focus on some of the smaller ecosystems that are often overlooked from the height of a vehicle. The intricate construction of termite mounds, the role and importance of dung beetles, and the variety of birdlife in the area are just some of the subjects you may encounter on your excursion.

The walking safari guides are all highly trained and carry a wealth of information that they are only too happy to share, be it about a peculiar track in the path or the chirping of an unseen bird.
