Nairobi-Masai Mara National Reserve

You will be picked up from Nairobi and drive to Masai Mara National Reserve with a stop at the Great Rift Valley where you will take pictures of the beautiful Rift Valley escarpments before you continue with your drive to Masai Mara through Narok Town. The reserve holds on as one of the few places left on earth where wildlife still lives comparatively undisturbed, in the numbers that once roamed the plains and forests of Africa. Masai Mara is part of the vast Serengeti plains and is famous for hosting the spectacular great seasonal wildebeest migration and a home for the Big Five. You will arrive in time for lunch and have an afternoon game drive later on.

Day 2

Masai Mara National Reserve Experience

Masai Mara National Reserve Experience

After breakfast, you'll have a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch. Masai Mara is well known for its black-manned lions, as well as its abundant resident wildlife. It's one of the few places where there’s an excellent chance to see the Big Five during a morning game drive. Many of the cheetahs are so tame that they seek shelter from the hot sun under one's vehicle and several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey.
You'll have lunch by the Mara River migration point as you enjoy the beautiful Mara with the hippos and the zebras grazing nearby.

The park has cliff tops that serve as viewpoints for seeing lions, white and black rhinos, waterbucks, reedbucks, warthogs, and buffaloes.
