Information
A 2-day, 1-night safari to Maasai Mara, one of Kenya's most famous and wildlife-rich national reserves, offers a condensed but exciting experience of the incredible African wilderness. Maasai Mara is known for its abundant wildlife, including the Big Five, as well as the annual wildebeest migration. Here's a sample itinerary for a short visit to Maasai Mara.
Itinerary
Day 1: Drive from Nairobi to Masai Mara Game Reserve
This morning we drive through the dramatic Great Rift Valley to the Masai Mara Game Reserve. This enormous reserve is part of the vast Serengeti plains famously known for its spectacular great wildebeest migration and is home to the Big Five: Lion, Elephant, Leopard, Buffalo, and Rhino. Lunch at our Lodge and relax before departing for the afternoon game drive. The Mara Game Reserve is one of the greatest wilderness destinations in the world. Large mammals are varied and easy to spot. Residents of the Park are Maasai Giraffe, Buffalo, Eland, and thousands of plain game including Impala, Zebra, Topi, both Thomson's and Grants Gazelles. Dinner and overnight at Ashnil Mara camp /Sarova Mara game Camp or similar.
Day 2: Masai Mara Game Reserve – Drive to Nairobi
Early morning tea/ coffee or Hot chocolate then depart for a morning game drive. Here we find the Old Africa of the movies, with rolling grasslands dotted by acacia trees and sweeping plains teeming with wildlife. No matter how much you have thought about Africa, this is more than you expected—and the ideal backdrop for a hot-air balloon expedition. During our stay, we also have an opportunity to visit a village of the Masai people to witness the singing and dancing that is part of their daily lives. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience. After a full English breakfast back at the camp/lodge, we depart for Nairobi by road arriving early afternoon.
