Which are the African Safari destinations in Kenya?

Masai Mara is the largest reserve in Kenya and quite extraordinary. It has the wildebeest migration doing the summer, as well. But there are many other incredible parks: Tsavo East and West, Amboseli, the rhinos and pelicans at Lake Nakuru. As to not using a guide, I don't think I'd recommend that. A good guide is invaluable both for providing information as well as your comfort and safety. The price for a guide/tour company is not expensive. OTOH, many of the lodges are expensive, so that's where you can either spend more or less on your safari. I just got back from Kenya (my 2nd time) and love it.
