Day 1: Nairobi to Masai Mara

In the afternoon, set out on your first game drive to encounter the spectacular wildlife that defines this renowned park. Return to your lodge or camp for dinner and an overnight stay.

Day 2: Full Day Game Drives in Masai Mara

Spend a full day exploring Kenya’s premier wildlife destination. Morning and afternoon game drives will immerse you in the vast landscapes of the Masai Mara, where you can expect sightings of Africa’s Big Five alongside a wide variety of other animals. The reserve’s 1,510 km² of open savannah and lush riverine woodland along the Mara and Talek rivers create an idyllic setting for wildlife viewing. Expect to see Masai giraffes, baboons, warthogs, bat-eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted hyenas, topis, impalas, hartebeests, wildebeests, elephants, buffaloes, zebras, and hippos. Lions are commonly spotted lounging or stalking prey, while cheetahs and leopards appear less frequently but are still present. If visiting during July and August, witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration, when millions of wildebeest traverse the plains in search of fresh grazing. Optional activities include a breathtaking hot-air balloon safari over the Mara or a cultural visit to a Maasai village. Return to camp or lodge in the evening for dinner and overnight.
