Day 1

Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

At 08h00, we’ll pick you up at your hotel, residence, or the Nairobi airport for an easy ride to Wilson Airport. You’ll board your plane for the approximately one-hour flight to the Masai Mara.

Winging over the sprawling Kenyan landscape, you’ll be treated to views of iconic Mount Kilimanjaro and the dramatic escarpment of the Great Rift Valley.

On your way to the camp and in the afternoon, you’ll have plenty of time to take in the wonders of this famous park. The Masai Mara National Reserve is known for its dense population of big cats, broad rolling grasslands and graceful acacia trees highlighting the landscape.

Famous for Africa’s Big Five sightings as well as cheetah, hyena, topi and fox, the reserve is perhaps most known for the abundance of its great migration. Here, millions of wildebeest, zebra and Thompson’s gazelle transit from the Serengeti and cross the Mara River into the reserve.

Day 2

Masai Mara National Reserve Game Drives

Masai Mara National Reserve Game Drives

We’re on safari time, which means an early rise to enjoy the morning light creeping across the plains and the sight of the wildlife emerging into the new day. This will be a full day of game drives. Please do what you please.

Should you be fortunate enough to visit the reserve during the season of the great migration (July – October), you will witness one of the natural wonders of the planet – an unending train of wildebeests and zebras crossing into the park over the Mara River on their annual trek. Awaiting them are the park’s many predators – lions, leopards, cheetahs, and crocodiles hidden beneath the river’s surface.

You can observe the drama and the spectacle, taking a break with a picnic lunch down at the Mara River.

You also have the option to choose to split your day into morning and afternoon drives rather than a full day.

Masai Mara National Reserve to Nairobi

It’s our final day on safari! We will rise for an early breakfast. An early game drive will set the tone as we will still find more species foraging on the sprawling plains as we catch the morning flight back to Nairobi.
