Day 1 Tue Arrive Nairobi
Touchdown in Nairobi early this morning. Clear customs and immigration formalities before you meet our Welcome Officer who will assist you in checking in at your hotel. Spend some time relaxing and having lunch (on your own) before traveling out to the suburb of Karen to visit the former home of Out of Africa author, Karen von Blixen. Stroll the beautiful grounds and soak in the stunning views of the Ngong Hills before continuing to the Giraffe Center for a lively and fun visit with the Rothschilds Giraffes. You're back at the hotel by late afternoon for an evening at leisure. Sleep well - our adventure in the bush begins tomorrow.
Day 2 Wed Nairobi-Masai Mara | Meals: BLD
A light aircraft flight takes you over the Great Rift Valley to the expansive plains of the Masai Mara, one of the most famous game reserves in the world. You'll stay at a luxury tented camp for the next three nights, where you will have time to search for the Big Five as well as relax and enjoy the surroundings of your camp. After you arrive at the camp, have lunch and freshen up before you leave on an afternoon game viewing adventure.
The luxurious Mara Safari Club is set in the Ol-Choro Oiroua Conservation Area, bordering the Masai Mara Game Reserve, at the foot of the Aitong Hills. Surrounded on three sides by the Mara River, all tents have their own private river frontage, with four-poster beds, verandah, electricity, modern en-suite facilities with hot and cold running water.
The main building, with lounge, bar and dining room is cantilevered over the river.
At the club, the pool, Al Fresco buffet lunches and nightly activities of Maasai dancing, slide shows and talks on the Mara's ecosystem and Maasai culture, all add up to create a truly unique experience.
The camp has 7 double and 43 twin bedded tents accommodating a maximum of 100 guests. Each has netted four poster beds and verandah overlooking the hippo-filled river. The height of luxury in the wild, each tent is superbly furnished and has its own private bathroom with hot and cold water.

Day 3 & 4 Thu & Fri Masai Mara | Meals: BLD
Your luxury tent is complete with four poster beds and a veranda overlooking the Mara River, so we can understand if you might want to give into the temptation to sleep late one morning. But morning game drives are amazing in the Mara, as you have an opportunity to see the anmials begin to stir and get ready for their day. There is nothing as spectacular as watching a silhouette of an elephant lumber across the plains as the bright orange sun rises behind him. You might also like to take a walk along one of the paths, escorted by a Masai Moran. During the heat of the day, relax poolside and enjoy a refreshing beverage. Of course, you've come to see game and the variety of game is astounding. Be sure to walk down to the hippo pool, which is both entertaining and exciting.
