Subject: Re: Honeymoon in the Masai Mara Posted on: Thu, 22 Feb 2007 20:20:25 +0000 (UTC)

Dear all,

thank you for your messages.

Just two things to clarify our choice.

We already know a bit of Kenya cause we have made several Safari
during which we went to Mara, Samburu, Meru, Shaba, Navaisha, Nakuru,
Baringo, Bogoria.

The second thing is that for or honey moon we wanted to stay in a
single place (no circuit).

Best regards
