Embark on a 4-day safari to the Masai Mara National Reserve from Nairobi. Witness the great wildebeest migration and see the animals in their natural habitat. Enjoy game drives and stay in a comfortable lodge.
Day 1: Nairobi to Masai Mara
Depart from Nairobi after breakfast and drive along the floor of the famous Great Rift Valley on your way to the Masai Mara. Stop at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint for a stunning panorama of the lakes, plains, and volcanic terrain that dominate the region.
Later, stop in the Masai town of Narok to stretch your legs before continuing on to Kenya's most famous reserve. Arrive at your lodge in time for lunch and then head out on an afternoon game drive in the park.
Day 2 & Day 3: Masai Mara Full Day Game Drive
Explore 2 full days of game drives in the park. Since the movements of the wildebeest migration can be unpredictable, there are 2 extra days in the Masai Mara to increase your chances of witnessing the famous river crossing.
Each year, the entire herd must attempt the treacherous crossing of the Mara River, where they contend not only with strong currents but also with the always hungry Nile crocodiles who call the river home. It takes a lot of patience and more than a little luck, but witnessing the dramatic river crossing is a bucket list-worthy item.
Day 4: Masai Mara to Nairobi
Bid farewell to the Masai Mara after breakfast and return to Nairobi for your onward travel.
