- Nairobi
- Masai Mara
In the Masai Mara, Kenya’s most popular park, you will encounter wildlife on a scale few imagine, much less get to see right before their eyes. This region boasts one of the densest concentrations of lions found anywhere. Over the golden hills of this thriving park, you’ll take in scenes of herding wildebeests, zebras, and elephants.
The dynamic Mara River is the spot where innumerable wildebeests cross… and where crocodiles, lions, and other predators await them. You will experience a vast landscape of churning wildlife in its timeless cycles of survival on your 3-day safari adventure with Africa Kenya Safaris.
So grab your gear and let’s get started with other safari lovers on this dynamic value-based journey.
What’s Cool About the Masai Mara?
For 3 intense days, we will bring you close to all the big game in one of the richest eco-systems in the region. The Masai Mara is known as the home of Africa’s “Big Five” – lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, and rhino. But it is also home to the Great Migration. Picture thousands of wildebeests and zebras, crossing into the park on their yearly trek – a veritable train of wildlife herding over the hills, brushing past the acacia trees, on their search for sustenance.
As they march on, their natural predators stalk them in the dramatic ebb and flow of the natural world. It is a sight you won’t soon forget.
On your tour, you’ll have time for some optional discoveries as well – experience a cultural encounter with the Maasai people in their nearby village. Take a hot air balloon safari over the park for a truly amazing perspective.
Your 3 days exploring this great park will be filled with sights and memories few ever get to know.

Day 2
Full-Day of Game Drives
Welcome to safari time – we’ll get up early to view the first golden light and the stirrings of the park’s wildlife. Today, we’ll enjoy maximum viewing with unlimited game drives across the vast savannahs.
We’ll be tracking the big cats along with elephants, giraffes, buffalos, and the other 95 mammals found in this world-famous park.
If you’re here during the Great Migration (July – October), you’ll encounter the most fantastic movement of animals on our planet. Thousands of zebra, gazelle, and wildebeest cross into the park over the Mara River on their timeless parade searching for taller grasses to consume.
The river is also home to pods of hippos and waiting crocodiles, eyeing the vast herds crossing into their territory.
If you would like to add a cultural aspect to your Masai Mara safari, tell your driver/guide to arrange a visit with the Maasai people in their local village. This optional experience will allow you to learn about these native people and see their homes up close.

Breakfast will follow and then one more game drive through the park as we head back to Nairobi.
We’ll stop for lunch on the way to the city, along with other rest stops.
The drive will give you plenty of time to dwell on and talk about your 3 days of Masai Mara adventure.
We will be back in Nairobi in the late afternoon and bring you to your hotel, the airport, or place of your choosing.
