4 Day Short and Sweet Masai Mara Safari

This safari begins and ends at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Kenya.

DAY 1 – 3: Masai Mara National Reserve
On arrival at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport you will be warmly welcomed by a member of the &Beyond team, who will drive you to Wilson Airport, where you will board a light aircraft flight to Kichwa Airstrip. From the airstrip, a short, 10-minute game drive will bring you to the camp of your choice.

The Masai Mara is Kenya’s most renowned game park, bordering the northern stretches of Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park. Its legendary Great Migration of over two million wildebeest and other antelope has been described as one of nature’s greatest wildlife spectacles and an experience that every safari enthusiast should witness at least once in their lifetime. Game viewing in this celebrated park is wonderful all year round, with virtually guaranteed sightings of the Big Five. The park takes its name from the Mara River, which flows through the reserve, and the Maasai people, a tribe whose red dress and proud demeanour have ensured that they are probably Kenya’s best-known (and most photographed) people.

Spend three nights at your choice of the following:

A spacious safari tent on a wooden platform at Bateleur Camp

A luxury safari tent with ensuite bathroom at Kichwa Tembo Masai Mara Tented Camp

A standard safari tent with ensuite bathroom at Kichwa Tembo Masai Mara Tented Camp

Your stay includes three meals daily, teas and coffees, emergency medical evacuation insurance and daily lodge adventures. Soft drinks, house wines, local brand spirits and beers, and laundry are also included at Bateleur Camp only. Adventures include morning and afternoon game drives in open 4×4 safari vehicles, birdwatching and nature walks. Night drives, guided walking trails along the Oloololo escarpment (Bateleur Camp only), a Masai community visit, sundowners at a spectacular locations and hot air ballooning are available at an additional cost.
