Final Game drive and departure to Nairobi
On your final morning, rise early for one last game drive in the Mara. Depending on the season, this may be the perfect time to witness the world-renowned Great Wildebeest Migration (typically between July and October), where millions of wildebeests and zebras make their dramatic river crossings in search of greener pastures. If you're visiting outside of migration season, you'll still have the opportunity to witness the Mara’s diverse wildlife, including lion hunts, elephants bathing in the river, and herds of buffalo grazing by the riverbanks.
After your game drive, return to the camp for a relaxing breakfast with a final view of the Mara plains. Take a moment to soak in the sights and sounds of this unforgettable destination before checking out.
You’ll enjoy a final game drive on the way to the airstrip, where you'll board your flight back to Nairobi. On arrival, you’ll be met by a driver for a transfer to your hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your onward flight.
