Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

Your adventure begins as our experienced safari guide picks and Rozsella Company reprisenyou from the airport or your Nairobi hotel early in the morning. You'll journey through scenic landscapes, including a brief stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint for panoramic photos, before heading to the vibrant town of Narok and continuing to the Masai Mara.

Upon arrival, you'll enjoy a warm welcome, check in, and have lunch at your lodge or camp. Later in the afternoon, you'll head out for your first game drive across the open savannah. You’ll witness lions on the prowl, cheetahs basking in the sun as they prepare for late afternoon hunting, and elephants roaming the plains. Zebras & wildebeests grazing in the open field later around 6 pm head back to your camp for dinner and an overnight stay.

Heart of Safari Adventure- Explore Masai Mara National Reserve

Today, you can choose between a full-day game drive with picnic lunch or split your day with morning and afternoon drives. You also have the option of an awe-inspiring hot air balloon ride at sunrise (available at an extra cost) or visit a traditional Maasai village to experience their culture firsthand.
Many of the cheetahs are so tame they seek shelter from the hot sun under a vehicle, and several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey. For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded: among these are 16 species of eagle, plus many hawks and falcons, and 6 species of vultures. Here is also where you get to witness the Great Migration.
From a distance, what looks like trees might be giraffes, and that moving rock — a rhino! You may see cheetahs or a herd of elephants in motion. Don’t overlook the smaller creatures either – even a group of scampering warthogs can bring smiles. Later, you'll return to the camp for dinner and an overnight stay.
