Journeys of exploration into Africa’s wild and remote places.
The Masai Mara wilderness is considered to be Kenya’s best wildlife sanctuary, offering incredible diversity in wildlife species, birdlife and scenery. The annual migration of up to one million wildebeest is most dramatic and considered to be one of the greatest wildlife spectacles in the world. The Mara is also home to the colourful and handsome Masai people, who, with their herds of livestock, are synonymous with the region.

“What an incredible experience we have had here in the Masai Mara on our horseback riding vacation. I have been on many riding holidays around the world, including two other African riding safaris. However, none came close to caliber of that like Safaris Unlimited. Gordie gives his guests such an incredible look at Africa through his relaxed personality, his attention to detail and his knowledge of the African animals, as well as, the African people. It is fantastic that he can still see Africa through his guest’s eyes and has not gone cold to all the beauties that Africa holds. “
