Day 1: Arrival in Nairobi

 

Arrive in Nairobi, where you’ll be warmly welcomed by your safari guide. After a transfer to your hotel, take the afternoon to relax or explore Nairobi’s highlights. You might consider optional (costs not included) visits to local attractions like the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust elephant orphanage, the Giraffe Centre, or the Karen Blixen Museum. In the evening, enjoy a delicious meal at your hotel as you prepare for the exciting days ahead.

Day 2: Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

 

After an early breakfast, depart for the Masai Mara by road, enjoying scenic views as you journey through the Great Rift Valley and into Maasai land. Arrive at your lodge or tented camp in the Masai Mara in time for lunch, then relax and unwind before your first game drive in the afternoon.

This initial game drive offers a glimpse of the Mara’s abundant wildlife, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and more. The Masai Mara’s wide, open plains are perfect for spotting big cats and other animals, especially near water sources. As the sun sets, return to camp for a cozy evening in the bush.

Day 3-4: Full Day Safari in Masai Mara

 

Spend a full day exploring the wonders of the Masai Mara with both morning and afternoon game drives. After an early breakfast, set out in search of the reserve’s incredible variety of wildlife, including the Big Five (lion, elephant, leopard, rhino, and buffalo). Your guide will lead you to key areas for game viewing, where you may see herds of wildebeests and zebras grazing alongside topi, impalas, and a rich birdlife.

If you’re visiting between July and October, you may witness the Great Migration, an awe-inspiring event where millions of wildebeests and zebras cross the Mara River in search of fresh grazing lands. Enjoy a picnic lunch amid the plains before continuing your game drive, and later, return to your camp to relax and share stories by the campfire under the starry African sky.

Day 5: Masai Mara to Nairobi

 

After breakfast, embark on a final morning game drive in the Masai Mara, capturing a few last photographs and soaking in the beauty of the reserve. Following the game drive, depart for Nairobi, enjoying one last scenic drive through the Rift Valley and arriving in the early afternoon.

Upon arrival in Nairobi, enjoy a farewell lunch at a local restaurant, marking the perfect end to your unforgettable Masai Mara safari.
