Day 1

Nairobi to Masai Mara – Into the Wild

Nairobi to Masai Mara – Into the Wild

Your safari adventure begins with an early morning pick-up from the airport. After a brief welcome and tour briefing from your guide, you'll set off on a scenic drive through Kenya’s stunning countryside. Along the way, enjoy views of the Great Rift Valley and picturesque local towns, with a few stops for stretching, photos, and refreshments.

By early afternoon, you’ll arrive at the legendary Masai Mara National Reserve, where the rolling savannah and iconic acacia trees welcome you to the wild. After checking in at your lodge, you'll enjoy lunch and a bit of rest before your first game drive begins.

As the sun begins to set, venture into the Mara for your first taste of the African wilderness. Keep your camera ready—you may spot elephants, giraffes, wildebeest, lions, and more against the golden backdrop of the plains.

Return to your lodge at dusk for a warm dinner under the stars, and fall asleep to the sounds of nature just outside your door.

Midday, enjoy a picnic lunch out in the wild, surrounded by breathtaking scenery. This is a prime opportunity for incredible photography, quiet reflection, and the raw thrill of being in untouched nature.

As the day winds down, continue tracking wildlife on your return to the lodge, with chances to witness predator-prey interactions, herds on the move, or a pride of lions lounging in the golden light.
