The Masai Mara cascades through Kenya as a vast savannah that provides one of Africa's finest safari experiences. The landscape is divided into the Masai Mara Reserve and private Masai Mara conservancies, all unfenced lands with overwhelming wildlife abundance and an incredible intimacy. Safari here is exclusive and then enhanced further by the unique activities on offer. This 10-day safari will take you to four Mara conservancies, and provide luxurious accommodation and private game viewing.
Customizable Itinerary
Day 1
Mara North Conservancy – First Impressions
Anticipation will be high as you fly across the Mara and the famous safari destination begins to expand beneath your eyes. After your early morning landing at Nairobi International, you will be transferred to Nairobi Wilson Airport, where a light aircraft will complete your journey into the wild. Your first impression will be the scale, both from the plane window and then from the ground as you transfer to the camp. It will seem to go on forever as nothing interrupts the grassland savanna except for Africa's giants, of course. Elephants and giraffe will grace the horizon, a lion pride will lounge along a riverbank, and the herds are often scattered far across the landscape.
Rustic and laid-back, your first luxury camp is ideal for an immersion in the landscape and provides a slightly wild base among the distant lion roars. There is no compromise on comfort so you will get all of the amenities required for an easy stay in the wilderness. Hot showers, fantastic vistas, luxury tents, and animals will be all around as you relax at the camp before you enjoy your first real game drive in the afternoon, a chance to match the impressions of scale with close-up encounters.
