Tour Overview
Fascinating safari in the Mara North Conservancy private wildlife conservancy offers only the highest quality African safari experience. The conservancy bordering the Mara Reserve, one of the biggest conservancies in the area, is a prime wildlife area. This top-quality Conservancy offers fantastic game viewing all year round.
Staying at Kicheche Mara Camp is ideal as game viewing frequently starts in the camp itself, and there is prime wildlife habitat on all sides, providing a perfect base for your safari in the Masai Mara.
The camp is a classic tented camp hidden in a beautiful valley in a prime wildlife area of the Mara North Conservancy. The luxury tents are laid alongside a seasonal stream from where you can observe the resident birdlife and plains game beyond.
Game drives in customised 4WD safari vehicles with top-quality silver guides. Watching wildlife at close range, but without encroaching on their space, is endlessly fascinating, and our guides’ instincts and safari experience will provide superb wildlife photography opportunities.

Tour Itinerary
Day by Day
Day 1
Nairobi to Mara North Conservancy – Masai Mara
Depart Nairobi on the 45-minute morning or afternoon flight Airport to the Masai Mara. Touch down in this magnificent wilderness, and your guide will greet you before setting out across the plains, where you will have your first wildlife sighting en route to camp. You will then be met by the camp hosts and given a briefing before you settle into your tent and freshen up before lunch.
Afterwards, relax and absorb the surroundings before setting off on an afternoon game drive in the conservancy till sunset. You may see giraffes nibbling on the highest leaves or elephants stripping bark from the tastiest trees. Return to camp at dusk for hot showers, then an aperitif by the fireside with your hosts and other guests before settling down for dinner.
Day 2
On Safari Mara North Conservancy – Masai Mara
Rise early with tea or coffee brought to your tent, then set off for a wilderness awakening game drive as the sun rises. The verdant plains host a fabulous array of plains game such as gazelles, impala, buffalo, zebra, wildebeest and eland. In addition, predators such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas are always close, and our guides are finely tuned to find them.
Enjoy a picnic breakfast in the most magnificent outdoor setting on the plains before rewinding your way to camp. After a leisurely al-fresco lunch back at camp, relax, read, watch the resident birdlife or enjoy a siesta in your tent.
Afternoon tea is followed by game driving in another conservancy area, where you may see jackals roaming, warthog bathing or impala jousting. Sundowner drinks are served in a picturesque spot as you watch the sun sink below the horizon. Finally, return to camp to exchange stories around the campfire with the other guests before your mouth-watering three-course evening meal.
Day 3
On Safari Mara North Conservancy – Masai Mara
Today is an opportunity for a full-day outing to explore the further reaches of the Conservancy or, if during the migration season, the Reserve. Breakfast will be served in camp before your guide enters the new terrain. On the menu today, you may encounter a cheetah stalk an unsuspecting Thompson gazelle, watch a hippo bathe alongside a crocodile in the river or watch a territorial wildebeest chase off his rivals. Then, pull up at a shaded spot and watch your picnic lunch unfold.
In the afternoon, continue traversing the magnificent terrain and witness the never-ending interactions on the plains. You may finish the day watching the fascinating interactions of one of our lion prides, with lionesses lolling about, cubs playing, and the males emitting thunderous roars.
Day 4
Mara North Conservancy to Nairobi
Today you may wish to enjoy an escorted game walk from the camp where our interpretive guides will point out the spoor of a leopard, the nest of a rare bird or signs of recent migration activity that would pass unnoticed by the eyes of strangers. After breakfast back at camp, the team will bid you farewell as we transfer you on your final journey across the plains to the airstrip for your flight back to Nairobi.
