Nairobi to Maasai Mara

Leaving JKIA, the journey to Maasai Mara takes you through Nairobi’s outskirts into the scenic Great Rift Valley, where a stop at the viewpoint offers sweeping vistas of the valley floor and volcanic peaks. As you descend, the road winds through lush highlands, vibrant local towns like Narok, and into open savannahs dotted with acacia trees. Along the way, you may spot zebras or giraffes near the roadside, offering a glimpse of the wildlife-rich landscapes awaiting in the Mara. Upon arrival at your lodge in the Mara, check in, freshen up, have lunch then head out for an exciting evening game drive, where you may spot lions, elephants, and other wildlife as the sun sets over the golden plains.
