A morning game drive in the Masai Mara, starting at dawn, offers a breathtaking experience of observing the African sunrise and witnessing animals in their most active state. The open savannah grassland provides a perfect backdrop as animals seek out food for the day, making it an ideal time to spot them grazing or hunting. As the sun rises higher, many animals head to the river banks to quench their thirst and cool off, while the elusive cats retreat to hidden areas for relaxation and rest, becoming more challenging to spot.
