3 Day Maasai Mara Safari in Kenya

This tours starts and ends in Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya. Why Nairobi? Nairobi is the largest city with Jomo Kenyatta international airport and hotels. Most of the tourists that visit Kenya normally use Jomo Kenyatta International airport as their entry point and therefore Nairobi is favoured among other cities to be the pickup point for most of our tours. Some of the tourists are picked from the airport and transferred to their hotel for relaxation before being picked up again to start their safari. Early in the morning after breakfast, you shall be picked up from your pickup point and later be driven to Maasai Mara at the border between Tanzania and Kenya. Maasai Mara game reserve is the most visited national park in Kenya and this because of richness in wildlife. Upon arrival in the Maasai Mara region, you shall check in your lodge and later, drive to the park for an afternoon game drive. You shall drive through the designated trail looking for wildlife species and with Maasai Mara; you don’t have to stress yourself with wildlife. Wildlife species are always viewable along the way, what you shall concentrate upon will be more related to the wildlife lifestyles, for example, hunting- how predators hunt for their prey. Later, you shall travel back to the lodge for relaxation, dinner, and overnight.

This is the epitome of this safari. You shall be in a position to watch the different game experiences during this day. Prepare and be expectant. Since it is a whole day game drive, you shall have an early morning game drive, mid-afternoon game drive, and an evening game drive.  During any of the game drives, you shall be in a position to watch several species of wildlife that call Maasai Mara their home and these include: hartebeest, lions, hyenas, antelopes, Elephants, Maasai giraffes, Buffaloe’s warthogs, crocodiles, Oribi, Rhinos, hippopotamus, Leopards, East African cheetah, hartebeest, wildebeest, Thomson gazelles, zebras, and others. If you happen to come around the great migration which happens between July to October, you shall be in a position to watch millions of wildebeest and hundreds of thousands of Thomson gazelles and zebra crossing from Tanzania’s famous Serengeti national park to Maasai Mara national park. Serengeti national park is not very far away from the Maasai Mara and the two parks form a region which offers one of the best game viewing options in Africa. Lunch is normally served near Mara River while witnessing several wildlife species that inhabit within the river. And during the great migration, the Mara River is one of the popular sights to watch the great migration. To some animals, especially the Crocodiles, this is feasting time; you shall view them hijacking some of the wildebeest and other creatures that are participating in the great migration. After an insightful day, you shall drive back to the lodge for relaxation, dinner and overnight.

During this day, you shall look out for some of the missed wildlife species. Early in morning, you shall drive to the park to watch some of the wildlife that you would have missed out during your game drives. Later you shall return to the lodge and drive back to the Nairobi to mark the end of this 3 day Maasai Mara safari in Kenya.
