1. Guided Game Drives: Game drives are the heart of the safari experience, allowing you to explore the Masai Mara’s vast savannahs and witness its abundant wildlife. Our expert guides take you deep into the park’s prime wildlife viewing areas, with morning and evening game drives offering the best chances of seeing predators in action.

Drift silently over herds of elephants, giraffes, and other animals as the sun rises over the horizon. This is a unique way to experience the landscape and wildlife from a new perspective.
3. Cultural Visits: Meet the local Maasai people and learn about their traditional way of life. A visit to a Maasai village offers insights into their customs, culture, and connection to the land. It’s an enriching experience that adds depth to your safari.
4. Walking Safaris: For a more intimate experience with nature, walking safaris led by local Maasai guides allow you to explore the wilderness on foot. Learn about the smaller details of the ecosystem, from plants and insects to tracking animal prints.

The Masai Mara is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit depends on what you want to experience:

July to October: This is the peak season to witness the Great Migration. The migration culminates in the dramatic Mara River crossings, where wildebeest and zebras brave crocodile-infested waters.
January to March: This period offers excellent game viewing as the short grass makes wildlife more visible. The baby animals born during the wet season are often seen during this time, and it’s a great time for predator action.
April to June: This is the low season when the Masai Mara is lush from the rains. Though there may be fewer tourists, wildlife viewing is still good, and you can enjoy lower rates.

Your Masai Mara safari experience will be enhanced by staying in some of Kenya’s best lodges and tented camps. These accommodations offer:

Luxury Tented Camps: Enjoy the ultimate glamping experience in luxury tents with en-suite bathrooms, private verandas, and panoramic views of the Mara.
Exclusive Lodges: Stay in intimate lodges that offer privacy, luxury, and personalized service, often located in private conservancies with exclusive access to game viewing areas.
Family-Friendly Accommodations: For families, we offer lodges with family suites, children’s activities, and dedicated guides to ensure a fun and educational experience for the whole family.
