Classic Maasai Mara Safari (4 Days)
From $3,616 (Both Private Group Tours & Small Groups Tours)
Overview
This four-day, three-night safari captures the excitement and wonder of Kenya’s most celebrated wildlife destination. The Maasai Mara is one of Africa’s finest game reserves, renowned for its extraordinary diversity of wildlife and the drama of the annual wildebeest migration. Guests are based at Ashnil Mara Camp, a comfortable and well-positioned retreat from which to explore this remarkable landscape.
The Maasai Mara Safari Experience
From Nairobi, guests depart on a four-day safari to the Maasai Mara. The reserve spans 1,500 square kilometres of savannah wilderness in south-western Kenya along the Tanzanian border and is home to lion, cheetah, elephant, zebra, and hippo, among many other species. During the annual migration, vast herds of wildebeest cross its plains, adding another layer of spectacle to an already extraordinary setting. Rolling grasslands, the Mara and Talek rivers, and nearby Maasai villages all contribute to the reserve’s enduring appeal.
Days are spent on morning and evening game drives, with time in between to appreciate the landscapes and ecosystems that support this rich concentration of wildlife. For many travellers, the Maasai Mara is a long-held aspiration and an experience that leaves a lasting impression.
