I hate zoos and places that keep animals and captivity... but after doing a safari I understand that the behavior of animals in those places vs the wild is very different indeed! Definitely!

In my opinion there is no better way to get to know and understand the animals by observing them in their own environment.

The animals at the Masai Maara were surprisingly picturesque. Even the lion, was just there sitting... almost as if waiting to be photographed. I guess we were just lucky! ;) We didn't get to see much flesh and blood though.. mostly left-over bones here and there. Have fun and say HI to Fiji for me! Hi Ryan,

This is my dream vacation...and I've seen some pretty neat spots in the world. The images, animals, and rawness of it all, is thrilling. I'm writing these words from Fiji and that's about the only other place on earth I'd rather be right now. What a shot of the lion. How long did that take, to get that perfect image of him sitting there regally? I imagine you may see some gory stuff. I watched many natures shows as a kid; hey, it's nature, so it is what it is, but wow things get brutal on the plains. Thanks so much for sharing. I'll tweet this through Triberr. Ryan Hi Zara,

It was amazing indeed! We couldn't believe how close to the animals you actually get - on the first 15 minutes of the safari, we were already next to all these wild creatures!! It was unbelievable and so worth it! Thanks Miriam. It was amazing indeed!

Although Indians do seem to have visa on arrival, we took the visa in advance, at the airlines office in Dubai (just in case!). It was a very straightforward process: we paid and they put the visa on the passport, on the spot! Then we traveled to Nairobi and, from there, we hired a tourist service that takes you on a van to the Maasai Mara Reserve (for 2 days) and a few extra days to make it to nearby Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha too - this is where you get to see flamingos and hippos! The safari part (everything once you leave Nairobi) is a package: they arrange transportation, accommodation and most meals. A very recommended trip and I hope you get to do something similar one of these days! :) Hi Suyash,

It is not really scary as you are inside a van. You shouldn't disturb the animals though... don't mess with them and they will not mess with you! ;) Hi Tina!
