Day 1

Flight from Coast to Masai Mara National Reserve

You'll begin your journey with an early morning departure from Mombasa or Diani. You’ll catch your flight with Mombasa Air Safari, which departs at around 8 am.

The flight takes approximately 3 to 3.5 hours, and you’ll arrive in the world-renowned Masai Mara around noon. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by your guide and transferred to your chosen camp or lodge within the reserve. After check-in, relax and enjoy lunch as you take in the beautiful surroundings. In the afternoon, you’ll embark on your first game drive in the Masai Mara, a thrilling experience as you explore the park’s rich wildlife, including the Big Five and other iconic species.

Explore Masai Mara National Reserve

Your second day in the Masai Mara is dedicated to exploring the vast savannahs with full-day game drives. After an early breakfast, you'll set out with a packed lunch for an extensive exploration of the park. You’ll traverse the open plains and riverine forests, searching for lions, elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, and leopards, as well as cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, and countless other species. The Masai Mara is also famous for the great migration, so if you’re visiting during this period, you might witness the dramatic river crossings and the immense herds of wildebeest and zebras. In the afternoon, you can take a break at a scenic spot for a picnic lunch before continuing your game drives. As the sun sets, you'll return to your camp at around 5:30 - 6 PM and freshen up.
