Is 24hrs Enough for the Ultimate Safari in the Masai Mara?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 พ.ค. 2024
- After roads in the Masai Mara were shutdown due to heavy rains, we had to shorten our safari weekend to only 24hrs. But this gave us a new goal. The goal to answer the question, "Is 24hrs Enough for a Safari?"
To book a stay at this safari camp or any other amazing safari trip, contact our friends at Ongeri Expeditions and they'll help you plan your ultimate safari adventure: www.ongeriexpeditions.com/
To answer this question, we stayed at Mara Engai Lodge in the Mara Triangle just outside the famous Masai Mara National Reserve. This safari camp has massive luxury tents built on a mountain side, offering incredible views of the Mara Triangle and the Serengeti in Tanzania as they are located just 10km from the Kenya Tanzania border.
Now let's address the true highlight of this safari lodge. Instead of using your typical Toyota Land cruiser or Land Rover Defender, they have a fleet of Pinzgauer, 6 wheel drive (6X6) from Austria made in the 1970's which they fully converted into safari vehicles. After experiencing those unique off road machines, our game drives will never be the same. A visit to Mara Engai is worth just because of those game drive vehicles!
Overall, a great 24 hours safari, a bit short of course but if this is the only time window you have, JUST DO IT!

Have a great rest of your day! :)
It was dope when you gave the prices straight up at the end to give an idea.maybe its just me....
We always do when we know bit sometimes we are simply not told.
❤❤
Cheers.
I think those trucks used to be in the army long long ago, with Unimogs that we no longer see around.
Yes, I'm pretty sure you are right about that.
Dave what are the budget camps around Mara without the per person sharing thing?
Maybe have a look at Asiilia in Naboisho Mara.
謝謝！
Thank you so much my friend! Have a great day. 🙃
Imagine playing Celine Dion whilst promoting Mexico.
Why not? Celine is international, I hear her songs even here in Kenya on the radio!
@@DaveMani I think Tracy should take over editing, I am sure she understands what I mean.
But how many time could someone go to the Mara without getting bored... because you guys have seen all the animals what adventure do you get from doing the same thing over and over again
I understand your point fully actually. But we do still enjoy safaris even after doing 72! 🙃 We feel like every time is a different experience.
@@DaveManiwow... maybe because I'm Kenyan I went to Amboseli once then after seeing all the animals never had the adventure bug to go back...I'm glad you enjoy yourself that shows that we don't appreciate what we have I should try more adventures I will follow your footsteps and do exactly what you have done because you are definitely the best travels in Kenya's history. You were Sent by the Universe to make Kenya 🇰🇪 a travel destination
What’s the background music
Lots of songs from Daniel Deuschle
@@DaveMani amazing beats!!!
👍👍👌💐🌹
Thanks for always watching! :)
What happened this days with treacy she doesn't like ndengu anymore 😂😂Dave with chapati 😂
Chapatis are king! 🤣👍🏼
They do not chase clout they are building a brand by travelling to Kenya... challenge can Kenyan couples go to Canada or the USA do the same??? Instead of copying these couples no disrespect just a humble challenge when we reverse the curtains..these two are one in a million the draw the borders for who can come in there circles no wonder they seem to be in tune with each other,they don't get involved with anything out of there mission..build our brand.
True money don't like noise...
I do understand your point but at the same time, there are way more Kenyans in Canada than Canadians in Kenya.
We work really hard to do what we do.
@@DaveMani I was actually challenging Kenyan content creators to do what you do over seas,cause you guys do more than a great job promoting Kenya,you one of the best content creators i have seen so far in Kenya.
In no way was I saying anything negative I watch your videos,and really see Kenya traveling wise,really eye opening thanks so much.
So I was challenging Kenyan content creators to get out of their comfort zone,and travel outside
Kenya ,cause I saw some place content creators, copying your style in Kenya,so I am challenging them to do it overseas,because guys do a great job in Kenya in such a professional way.
One million thanks to you and your partner for opening my eyes on Kenya I always use your channel to plan trips to Kenya w friends in July true travel Ambassadors of Kenya.
मर्यादापुरुषोत्तम श्रीराम की जय 🙏
Cheers
