Day 1

Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

Depart Nairobi and journey through the dramatic landscapes of the Great Rift Valley, where escarpments, rolling hills, and fertile farmlands unfold in every direction. The scenic drive sets the stage for the adventure ahead as you make your way to the world‑renowned Masai Mara National Reserve. By afternoon, you’ll arrive at the Mara’s sweeping savannahs and head straight into your first exhilarating game drive. Here, lions stalk the grasslands, elephants wander in family herds, giraffes stretch gracefully above the acacia trees, and wildebeest move in endless patterns across the plains. As the sun dips low, the golden light transforms the horizon into a breathtaking canvas. Your day concludes with dinner and overnight at a lodge or camp, surrounded by the sounds of the wild marking the beginning of an unforgettable three day safari adventure.

Day 2

Game drive & Bush Lunch at the Mara

Game drive & Bush Lunch at the Mara

Wake up at 6:30am and enjoy breakfast. After breakfast, you will spend the entire day on game drives, heading out with a picnic lunch. The Masai Mara is renowned for its lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos, and buffalo, which comprise the Big Five. However, spotting leopards and rhinos can be challenging as they are pretty shy and elusive. The park's concentration of wildlife is truly extraordinary!

You will proceed to the Mara River, where the great migration of wildebeests occurs every year. Bush Lunch will be served here, and guests are advised not to feed the monkeys as they may try to snatch some of your fruits this behavior is typical in this area.

While at the river, you can visit the hippo pool, where you might see crocodiles basking on the rocks. You will also see numerous plains game, including antelopes, wildebeests, zebras, and Masai giraffes, as well as scavengers like hyenas and vultures. After lunch, we will continue exploring the park as we return to camp.

Following this cultural encounter, begin your journey back through the scenic Great Rift Valley, with its rolling hills and fertile farmlands offering a fitting farewell to Kenya’s natural beauty.
