- Viewing the life-and-death drama of the annual migration of vast thundering herds of wildebeest and zebras as lions and crocodiles stalk and attack their prey.
- Floating in a hot air balloon high above the game reserve -- an airborne safari -- ideally during the Great Migration.
- Catching sight of three species of big cats -- lions, cheetahs and leopards -- in one day. Watching as a pride of lions, 20 strong, hunt down and devour their kill, after driving off a pack of snarling hyenas.
- Taking a night game-viewing drive or walking safari in one of the private camps lining the western edges of the park.
- Checking out a cheetah perched high up on a termite hill, surveying the landscape for potential prey. Meeting up with red-robed Masai as they tend their cattle on the open plains.
