Day 1

Nairobi - Masai Mara National Reserve

Nairobi - Masai Mara National Reserve

Your driver-guide reports to your hotel for the start of the safari, with a departure for a picturesque drive descending the Great Rift Valley and onwards to Masai Mara, Kenya's famous game reserve. Stop briefly en route at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint to enjoy the stunning views of an enormous valley system said to be visible from outer space.

You will arrive in the Masai Mara in time for lunch. After lunch, we will have an afternoon game drive, allowing us to spot the magnificent wildlife in the park. The reserve is known for providing excellent predator sightings thanks to its relatively large population of lion, cheetah and leopard. Bordering Tanzania, the Mara is in the northern extension of Serengeti and forms a wildlife corridor between the two countries.

Day 2

Full Day in Mara

Full Day in Mara

You will be taken on two game drives today, one in the morning before breakfast and the other in the late afternoon. Early mornings and late afternoons are considered the best time to spot animals as they are most active. To get some of the best game viewing of the day, an early start is needed to beat the heat of the sun. This is the time that the big cats are most active and can provide some of the most dramatic photography, thanks to the beautiful lighting. This is a bush experience that will surely create lifetime memories.

An optional hot-air balloon safari can be arranged at an extra cost. Return to the camp for a mouthwatering breakfast. Your guide will then take you to the nearby Maasai village, where you will get a chance to see the Maasai way of life (optional).

Return to the camp for lunch before setting out for an evening game drive. Return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
