We will pick you up at 7:30am and drive you to our office. From here, you will depart on a scenic drive of about 5 hours towards the Great Rift Valley and finally reach Masai Mara National Reserve, Kenya's premier game reserve. We will have a brief stop en route at the Great Rift Valley viewpoint to enjoy stunning views of the world's largest valley (said to be visible from space) before arriving at Masai Mara for lunch. The afternoon game drive at 4:00pm allows for the spotting of magnificent wildlife in the park ranging from the big cats such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs to other large mammals like rhinos, elephants, and wildebeest.
Finally, we will return to Jambo Mara Safari Lodge at 6:30pm for dinner and an overnight stay.
After an early breakfast, we depart for a full day of game drives within the Masai Mara National Reserve. The Masai Mara National Reserve is famous for its black-mane lions and the annual wildebeest and zebra migration and, is probably, one of Kenya's most visited wildlife destinations. The extraordinary density of animals, including the Big Five and other varieties of plains game, is sure to provide excellent game viewing. The Mara River cuts through the Mara and Serengeti ecosystems giving life to both reserves before finally pouring out into Lake Victoria. Impressive and most notable is the wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle instinct-led migration from the Serengeti in Tanzania to the Mara in Kenya.
You will have a picnic lunch and continue with the game drives arriving at Jambo Mara Safari Lodge in the evening for dinner and an overnight stay.
After breakfast, proceed to optional masai village visit, we depart for Nairobi where we will arrive in the evening. The safari concludes when we drop you off at your hotel or the city center.
