Begin your day with an early morning drive to the legendary Masai Mara National Reserve — one of the last truly wild places on Earth. As the northern extension of the Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara is world-famous for its spectacular seasonal migration of thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and the predators that follow.

Arrive in time for lunch at your camp, then head out on an exciting afternoon game drive in search of the Big Five and more. Enjoy dinner and an overnight stay surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.

Note: Accommodation can be upgraded or downgraded to suit your budget.

Famous for its black-maned lions and rich wildlife, the Mara is one of the few places where spotting the Big Five in a single morning is possible.
