Masai Mara National Reserve

The serene early morning air of the Masai Mara makes it ideal for hot-air balloon flights, which are available as an optional tour. These rides offer a bird's-eye view of the park and can be arranged through leading lodges and camps in the reserve. Please make your reservation early to avoid disappointment.

Start your day with a pre-breakfast game drive, a fantastic opportunity to explore the reserve's diverse flora and fauna. After an enriching game drive, you return to your lodge for brunch. Later in the day, enjoy lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive.

Those looking for a more immersive experience can opt for a full-day game drive with picnic lunch boxes. This full-day excursion features visits to the Mara River and the Kenya-Tanzania border post, providing an excellent chance to see the Big Five. You will enjoy a picnic lunch at the hippo pool before returning to your lodge in the late afternoon. You can also enjoy an optional activity like visiting a nearby Maasai village.
