Itinerary
Return Wilson Airport flights connect Nairobi with four nights in the Maasai Mara. Private game viewing is complemented by the included sundowner, bush breakfast and private bush dinner experiences during the stay.
The safari begins with the included Nairobi transfer to Wilson Airport and the booked flight to the Maasai Mara. On arrival at the Mara airstrip, the dedicated safari guide meets the party and accompanies the transfer to the accommodation for the start of the four-night stay. The arrival-day private game drive introduces the Mara landscape and its wildlife, with time in the safari vehicle to observe the habitats and animals encountered along the route. The flight arrival determines how much of the afternoon is available for this first exploration. The day finishes at the accommodation, ready for the full days of private game viewing that follow.
A full day of private game viewing allows the party to explore the Maasai Mara with its dedicated guide and safari vehicle. The guide follows authorised routes and stops at wildlife encounters, giving time to observe animal behaviour and photograph the reserve’s landscape rather than simply pass between sightings. The programme includes a midday return to the accommodation before further exploration. The included sundowner experience takes place at a permitted location as part of the booked camp programme, bringing an outdoor pause to the end of the day. The party then returns to the same accommodation for the second Mara night.
Day three combines private Mara game viewing with the included bush breakfast experience. The outdoor setting adds a different part of the reserve to the day’s experience, alongside the vehicle-based wildlife exploration. The guide leads the driving programme on authorised routes, with opportunities to spend time watching the animals and birds encountered and taking photographs of the landscape. The day remains focused on the Mara, without a transfer to another destination. Wildlife activity shapes individual encounters, while the booked camp arrangements provide the setting for the included bush experience. The third overnight stay is at the same Mara accommodation.
Another day in the Maasai Mara provides further private game drives and the included private bush dinner experience. The party explores with its dedicated guide and vehicle, returning to wildlife habitats during a different part of the stay and allowing more time for observation and photography. The evening’s outdoor experience is a private dining arrangement at a permitted location under the booked camp programme. It complements the game drives and gives the final full day a distinct conclusion; it does not mean exclusive use of the entire camp. The programme returns to the accommodation for the fourth and final Mara overnight stay.
The departure day centres on the transfer from the accommodation to the booked Mara airstrip and the return flight to Nairobi. The airstrip transfer provides the final journey through the Mara landscape before check-in for the flight to Wilson Airport. The confirmed flight schedule determines the departure programme; a separate additional morning game drive is not promised. After landing at Wilson, the included Nairobi transfer completes the safari. The day brings the journey back to the city following four Mara nights, private game viewing and the included outdoor experiences.
