​

Day 2:  Nairobi to Masai  Mara

After morning breakfast , your safari driver guide will be meeting you for a trip briefing before heading to the Masai Mara; arriving in time for lunch.  Along the way you’ll drive through the striking western walls of the Great Rift Valley.  Your first Mara experience will take place with an afternoon game drive through this special place. Overnight at Mara Sopa Lodge or any other similar Lodge, {Lunch & Dinner  included}

Day 3: On Safari  Masai Mara National Reserve 

A full day of game viewing awaits you after an optional hot air balloon flight over the Mara at a cost of 450$PP,  We highly recommend this flight,, what you see from up there is worth the money, and we advise to book it during the booking of your trip to avoid disappointments when you get at the Mara as space is rarely available due to too many bookings during the migration season. You’ll enjoy a picnic lunch at a hippo pool in the bush and afterwards you’ll have the option of continuing with your safari, and to crown it, an option of visiting a traditional Maasai village where these traditional people will showcase their rich culture at a cost of 20$PP.  Overnight at Mara Sopa Lodge or similar lodge {Breakfast, Lunch , Dinner}

Day 4: Masai Mara Back to Nairobi

You’ll be up early to make the most of the best time of day for game viewing. Predators are winding down from a night of hunting and prey start to relax and become more active as the sun gets higher.  For this reason your last game drive will be before a late breakfast that you’ll take at your lodge.  After checking out you’ll be driven back to Nairobi where your Masai Mara expedition concludes. {Breakfast included}
