Nairobi to Masai Mara Safari and Return
Day 1: Nairobi - Masai Mara (You will have 2 options)
You will be picked up from your location between 0530hrs and 0600hrs, then head through the Rift Valley towards Narok town, where you will go shopping for snacks for the day. Lunch is self-sponsored. You are expected to reach by 1100hrs and then go straight for the game drive until 6:00 PM. Later, go for dinner and an overnight stay at Giraffe Hills Mara Camp or similar. This option is recommended because you will have more time in the park.
Wherever you go in the vast Masai Mara, you will see a frequent amount of wildlife such as Masai giraffe, baboons, warthogs, bat-eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted hyena, topis, impala, hartebeests, and wildebeest. Elephants, buffaloes, zebras, and hippos are also found in great numbers. It is also common to see lions either basking after a heavy meal or surveying the plains for their next meal. Cheetahs and leopards are harder to spot, but reasonably common.

Our driver can organize for you to visit the Masai Village ($20 per person), where you will be entertained with the Masai dance and learn more about their lifestyle. Then start your journey back to Nairobi, arriving in the late afternoon with drop-off at your apartment or the airport.
