3 Day Maasai Mara Safari

The 3 Day Maasai Mara Safari begins in Nairobi, where guests are picked up early in the morning before travelling towards the Maasai Mara. The journey starts after breakfast at a city hotel. Visitors will have a stop at the Great Rift Valley escarpment, giving travellers an opportunity to take photographs before continuing towards the Mara. On arrival, guests check in at their accommodation and have lunch before spending some time relaxing. An afternoon game drive then introduces travellers to the Maasai Mara landscape and its wildlife. Depending on conditions and animal movements, guests may encounter species such as elephants, lions, zebras, giraffes and antelopes. Day two is dedicated to a full-day game drive in the Maasai Mara. After breakfast, guests head into the reserve with a packed picnic lunch and spend the day exploring the savannah in search of wildlife. T


he itinerary also includes time around the Mara River, where guests may observe hippos and crocodiles. The area is also associated with wildebeest migration routes, although migration activity and river crossings are seasonal and sightings are never guaranteed. The full-day format gives guests more time to explore different parts of the Mara rather than returning to camp after a short morning or afternoon drive. Wildlife viewing remains dependent on animal movements, weather, season and local conditions. On the final morning after breakfast and check-out with an optional maasai village visit before the journey then continues back towards Nairobi, with a lunch stop and time for shopping before the safari ends. The trip is designed around wildlife viewing and the landscapes of the Maasai Mara, while the private guided format allows the safari to be experienced with a professional guide.
