Discover the wildlife and heritage of Kenya on a day trip to the Masai Mara National Reserve from Nairobi. Embark on a game drive to spot the Big Five, enjoy a picnic lunch, and visit a traditional Masai village.

Start your day with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Nairobi and head to the Masai Mara National Reserve. Upon arrival, embark on an exciting game drive with an experienced guide. Spot the Big Five—lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards, and buffalo—as well as a wide variety of other animals, including giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and wildebeest.

During the drive, the Mara’s vast plains offer numerous opportunities for wildlife photography and close encounters with the animals in their natural habitat. Depending on the season, you might witness the awe-inspiring Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras cross the Mara River in search of greener pastures.

After the thrilling game drive, enjoy a picnic lunch in the park, surrounded by the stunning views of the wilderness. Afterward, continue with a visit to a nearby Masai village. The Masai people are one of the most iconic indigenous tribes of Kenya, known for their distinct customs, vibrant attire, and semi-nomadic lifestyle.

Experience a traditional welcome dance by the villagers, where the rhythmic jumping (called "adumu") by the Masai men is a highlight. Learn about the Masai's way of life, their cattle-based economy, and their deep connection with nature. Take a tour of the village, including traditional mud huts (manyattas) and a demonstration of how they make fire.
