You will be picked up early in the morning at the airport on arrival or hotel at 8:30 am, and thereafter drive via Narok town to Masai Mara National Reserve, the land of the Maasai tribe.

The 700-square-mile Game Reserve is the Africa of your dreams, complete with wild animals grazing amid the superb rolling landscape of gentle hills and acacia woodlands. Lunch at the camp in Maasai Mara. Afternoon game drive starts at 4pm. Exit the park and arrive at the camp before dusk for accommodation.

Day 2

Full Day Game Drive & Mara River

Full Day Game Drive & Mara River

Optional: Balloon safari in the early morning, followed by a champagne breakfast on the Mara Plains. Take to the skies for the ultimate Maasai Mara wildlife adventure, soaring in a hot air balloon over herds of game to the inner reaches of the Mara. You'll ascend in the early morning, when winds are calmest. Your balloon can soar over the most inaccessible and undisturbed parts of the Mara, with only the intermittent whisper of the balloon's gas burners punctuating the silence of your majestic flight.

If you do not opt to go for the balloon, you will head towards the Mara River for a full day uninterrupted game drive. A picnic lunch box will be given by the camp for lunch on the Mara Plains. Return to the camp before dusk.
