Day 1

Nairobi-Masai Mara NP

Nairobi-Masai Mara NP

Pick up from your hotel or airport by our tour guide and you’ll depart to Masai Mara National Reserve, a 5-hour drive, arriving in time for lunch. Masai Mara is a pristine wilderness of haunting beauty, it promises its visitors a profusion of wildlife, prolific birdlife and the opportunity of catching up with all the members of the 'Big Five' in one morning. This veteran reserve offers a mix of African imagery; miles of lion-gold grasslands, shoals of lilac-misted hills, a meandering river, acres of thorn-bush and mile upon mile of undulating wilderness. Game viewing in the Masai Mara is excellent all year round thanks to the diverse population of resident game, including the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino—and popular species like zebra, giraffe, hyena, eland and gazelle. The Mara’s big cats are even the stars of a popular wildlife TV series. Enjoy an afternoon game drive to spot the Big Five as your introduction to the park. Return for dinner and your overnight.

Day 2

Masai Mara Game Drive

Masai Mara Game Drive

On this day you’ll enjoy a full day in the Masai Mara with morning and afternoon game drive. Masai Mara National Reserve offers one of the best opportunities to see cheetahs and lions in Kenya, Africa. A visit to this reserve in July will allow you the best chance to witness and watch firsthand as thousands of wildebeest migrate across the swollen crocodile-infested Mara River. This is one of nature’s greatest wildlife spectacles, the wildebeest migration. The sheer number of wildebeests arriving in the area is staggering. The migration is a dramatic mass movement of two million wildebeests, zebras and gazelles in a seasonal annual cycle driven by rainfall. In order to reach Masai Mara fresh grazing, wildebeests make dramatic river crossings, facing enormous crocodiles to feast on the Mara plains and regain their strength. November's short rains trigger the last leg of the migration when the wildebeest move to Serengeti. Return to the tented camp for dinner and your overnight stay.
