Arise early each morning to make the most of your spectacular location. Each day will offer you the option of three game drives within the Mara National Reserve, immersing yourself in this rich wildlife destination. Masai Mara offers such wide-ranging and abundant wildlife that it is difficult to comprehend. Over 450 species of animals have been recorded, including lions, rhinos, hippos, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, hyenas, wild dogs, buffalo, leopards, many kinds of antelopes and elephants.

In the Mara, the most spectacular natural world event happens, ‘‘The Great Annual Migration,” of millions of wildebeest and zebra from the Serengeti (in Tanzania) in search of water and pasture. Following their heels are the savannah predators: lion, cheetah, wild dog, jackal, hyena and vulture.

For a memorable experience, enjoy a surreal journey in a hot air balloon over the Masai Mara plains. This adventure begins just before dawn; depart the camp at 05h15 to the Balloon Safaris take-off site.  The excellent sunrise flight lasts approximately one hour, depending on weather conditions.

On landing, sit down to a delicious bush breakfast, freshly cooked on balloon burners in the middle of the Mara plains. Toast your return to Mother Earth with your pilot over a glass of sparkling wine. Then, the game drives back to your camp.

On your final day, head out on an early morning game drive at sunrise, followed by breakfast at the camp. If you depart the Mara on a late afternoon flight, there will be an opportunity for one more game drive (late morning) and a delicious lunch back at the camp.

After lunch, you will be transferred to the airstrip to catch your flight to Nairobi. On arrival in Nairobi, you will be met and transferred to a restaurant for dinner (dinner to be paid direct). After dinner, transfer to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your international flight home.
