Day 2
Full day in Masai Mara
Full day in Masai Mara
This day is dedicated to a full immersion in the vast Masai Mara National Reserve, renowned for having the highest wildlife density in Kenya. The reserve is home to over 1,000 lions (out of the approximately 2,800 found across the country) and is the only park where you have high chances of finding the big cats in your first two game drives.
Our focus is on the early morning hours, when the plains come alive with activity and both nocturnal predators and diurnal grazers are roaming the open landscapes. If interested, this is also the moment to go for a hot air balloon safari — one of the most rewarding safari activities.
The rest of the day is spent on extended game drives. You’ll enjoy a packed lunch at one of the scenic picnic sites, continuing your adventure through the afternoon in search of more incredible wildlife encounters. Being home to a high density of four of the big fives (rhino missing) we hope you will have met the four by the close of the day.
