Masai Mara – Into the Savannah
Your adventure begins with a morning pick-up in Nairobi, heading towards the legendary Masai Mara National Reserve. Along the way, stop at the iconic Great Rift Valley Viewpoint to marvel at the dramatic escarpments and panoramic vistas. Continue through Narok, a bustling town that serves as the gateway to the Mara. Arrive at your lodge just in time for a delicious lunch. Settle into your accommodations, relax with a refreshing cocktail by the swimming pool, or dip your toes in it before embarking on your afternoon game drive. Explore the Mara’s golden savannahs and riverine forests, encountering a kingly pride of lions atop a rock looking over their dominion, herds of noble elephants whose majestic stride clears paths through the wilderness, and aggravating vultures refuse to let any animals have a meal in peace. As the sun sets, return to the lodge for a hearty dinner.

Rise early to take part in an optional hot air balloon safari, soaring above the vast Mara plains as the sunrise bathes the savannah in golden light. Spend the rest of the day on thrilling game drives, exploring the reserve’s diverse ecosystems. Look out for the famed Big Five, and other iconic wild animals such as sleek cheetahs sprinting across the plains, and chuckling hyenas lovingly raising their young. If visiting during the migration season, witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration as wildebeests and zebras traverse the land, always on the lookout for the predators that shadow them the entirety of the way.
In the afternoon, consider visiting a Maasai village to learn about their vibrant traditions and unique lifestyle. Return to the lodge when twilight hits for a sumptuous dinner. Reflect on the day’s adventures while gazing at the star-studded African sky, or relax in the comfort of your snug room as the sounds of the wild serenade you into the night.

Walk the beautiful campgrounds or admire the stunning lake views from the balcony of your intimate room. In the afternoon, head out on a game drive through the park. Witness the breathtaking tableau of a powerful rhino strolling gracefully. You can also find high-spirited baboons amongst the trees and probably even an ever-elusive leopard lying in ambush, waiting for a nearby antelope to wander into range.

Wander the lush gardens inhabited by resident herbivores or have a refreshing swim in the pool if the heat is a little much for you. In the afternoon, embark on a tranquil boat ride across Lake Naivasha. Watch as a pod of hippos lounges in the shallows, their grunts and splashes filling the air. Nearby, a pair of African fish eagles perch high on an acacia tree, their piercing cries echoing across the water. On the banks, waterbucks graze quietly, their elegant forms adding a sense of calm to the lively scene. As the sun sets, return to the lodge for your last delightful dinner.
