Day 1

Road Tranfer from Kisumu to Masai Mara Reserve

Road Tranfer from Kisumu to Masai Mara Reserve

In anticipation of an early start of the safari to Kenya’s premier game reserve, you are encouraged to have an early wake up call and breakfast. By around, 8 am, we should be leaving Kisumu city, starting the exciting journey to the famous Masai Mara game reserve.

An endless torrent of life thunders across an eternity of grass as the migratory herds sweep across the Mara. Zebra are swept up in the flow, peppering the herds with colour. It is hunting season for the crocodile in the mighty Mara River, whose banks swell and burst with wildebeest as the animals fight across raging currents to reach the life-giving grass on the other side.

We recommend leaving Kisumu with picnic lunch boxes. This allows for a leisurely afternoon game drive, not having to try and reach the lodge for lunch. We expect to arrive the game reserve by early afternoon, enjoying our first safari drive on the way to the lodge. In the late afternoon, check in for dinner and overnight at your lodge of choice.

Safari Activities in Masai Mara

Safari Activities in Masai Mara

Today, you have a full day to enjoy the Masai Mara at your own pace. Depending on the location of your lodge of choice, some of the safari activities that you may take part in, besides game drives include gliding over the plains on a Hot Air balloon, guided nature walks, bush breakfast or bush dinner, experience the African sunset on a sun-downer outing, local village visit, night game drive,

The Maasai Mara National Reserve is the most popular wild safari destination for tourists. The main reason for its popularity is its astounding amount of wildlife, it's not uncommon to see large prides of lions hunting, or even a cheetah reaching top speed in the distance. However, the annual migration of the wildebeest is an attraction that is without a doubt one of the greatest events Kenya has to offer.
