Explore Africa’s Wonderland

Masai Mara is one of Africa’s prime game viewing destinations with abundant wildlife and dramatic scenery. The ecosystem plays host to a variety of plains game that attracts predators like lions, leopards, cheetahs, and wild dogs whose intense interactions are a thrill to watch. Our safari itineraries are tailor-made to suit guests’ interests and timeframes.

 

Day 1

Arrive in Nairobi where you will be transferred to Wilson Airport to catch a 45-minute flight to Masai Mara. Your Masai guide will meet you at the airstrip and transfer you to our camp in Masai Mara. Basecamp Masai Mara sits on a picturesque bend along the Talek River in one of the most game-rich areas of the Masai Mara Reserve. Enjoy lunch and make plans to settle in for the rest of the afternoon. Your late afternoon will be spent exploring the reserve in 4×4 open land cruisers as you marvel at the area’s wildlife and views.
