Day 1

Arrival and Immersion in the Wild

Arrival and Immersion in the Wild

Be picked up from your hotel in Nairobi or the airport (We recommend booking a flight that arrive by 6:00 Am) and set off on a scenic drive down into the Great Rift Valley, onwards to Masai Mara, Kenya's premier game reserve. Stop briefly en route at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint to enjoy the stunning views of what is the world's largest Valley, said to be even visible from space. Arrive at Masai Mara for lunch.

Once you check in, take a moment to freshen up and unwind before your first adventure. Feel free to explore the lodge’s facilities, such as the outdoor pool or a lovely balcony view of the Mara plains. In the afternoon, go on a game drive to spot the magnificent wildlife in the park ranging from the Big Cats such as Lion, Leopard & Cheetah to Rhino, Elephant, and Wildebeest. Return to the lodge for a hearty dinner and share stories with fellow travelers about the wildlife you’ve encountered and overnight at the hotel.

Day 2

Chasing the Big Five

Chasing the Big Five

Take 2 game drives today, one in the morning before breakfast and the other in the late afternoon. Spot an array of wildlife, including gazelle, impala, antelope, giraffe, elephant, buffalo, and warthog, as well as the big cat species, such as leopard, cheetah, and lion.

The biggest draw to the reserve is the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra from Serengeti. Starting in late June, they cross the border and the Mara River to reach the Masai Mara grazing fields. The dramatic crossing of the river results in a game of survival, as the species are met with lurking predators in the water.

As your safari is private, your game drive timings are flexible, useful if you are traveling with children, or are on a honeymoon. You may also choose to have a full-day game drive with a packed picnic lunch at no extra cost. Return in the evening for dinner and overnight at the lodge.
