The reserve borders the Serengeti Park in Tanzania with which it forms a single ecosystem. The name of the reserve derives from the name of the Maasai people (who inhabit various areas in the Serengeti plain) and the Mara river. The reserve is known for the exceptional concentration of fauna and for the famous migration of wildebeest and zebras which takes place in October and April. The most represented habitat is that of the African prairie or savannah dotted with typical acacias in the south-eastern area. The best-known icon of the Maasai Mara is probably the image of the lion of which large prides are found; However, all the so-called Big Five are present in the park (lion, rhino, elephant, buffalo, leopard) although the rhino population is in serious danger. Hippos are numerous in the Mara River and Talek River. Cheetahs are also present, but they too are considered endangered. Wildebeests are the main inhabitants (millions of specimens). They migrate from the Serengeti to the Maasai Mara in autumn and vice versa in spring. There are also numerous other species of antelope, in particular Thompson's gazelle and Grant's gazelle, impalas and others. Large herds of zebras are found everywhere in the reserve. Giraffes (both Maasai giraffes and common giraffes) also inhabit the plain. Around sunset, return to the camp (David Livingstone Safari Lodge) for dinner and overnight stay.

Tsavo West contains several fantastic landscapes: riverine forests, mountains, lakes and vast plains. All animals are found there, lions, leopards, elephants, gazelles, impalas, cheetahs.

The area can be easily visited by tourists. visit to Mzima Spring. The pure Mzima spring water emerges at a constant daily rate of over 50 million gallons (190 million liters), the clarity of the water in Mzima Springs is due to the fact that it is underground spring water that seeps through the volcanic rock of the local Chyulu Hills.
