Wake up to an early morning game-viewing and bird-watching drive around the park. Return to the camp for breakfast after which you drive west past Mount Longonot through Narok to the Masai Mara National Reserve. You will arrive in time for lunch.
Settle into your tent and enjoy lunch while looking at the Masai Mara Reserve. At around 4 pm, you will meet your guide for your afternoon game drive. As the temperature cools in the late afternoon, the predators of the Mara start preparing for the evening hunt. During your afternoon game drive, you will witness how the constant battle for survival makes the migration season a particularly exhilarating time to visit the Masai Mara. As the sun sets, you will return to camp for dinner, followed by stargazing and storytime around the fireplace. When you’re ready, one of the Maasai night guards (known as Askaris) will escort you back to your tent for your overnight stay.
