Detailed 3 Days Maasai Mara Safari Kenya
Day 1: Nairobi to Maasai Mara – Kenya
Departing from the capital of Uganda, Kampala, we drive down the escarpment via the floor of the scenic Great Rift Valley. We shall enjoy the serenity of the countryside all through just after leaving the city Centre.
This is a 16hours drive and so brace yourself for exciting scenes like the escarpments, and the rift valleys. We shall have lunch en route. We shall arrive right time for dinner. Then we take our first thrilling game drive in the Maasai Mara game reserve, East Africa’s top safari destinations.
The Mara reserve incorporates 1510 km² of incredible, wide-open landscapes and fertile riverine woodland following the looping meanders of the Mara and Talek rivers in Kenya. One glimpse is enough to explain its appeal; it is typical open savannah, with a mass of amazing wildlife.
Returning from our first foray into Maasai Mara we have dinner and relax under the stars, falling asleep to the sounds of the bush. We shall expect surprises on this Kenya safari as the company learnt that we have a couple on this Kenya safari
Day 2: Masai Mara Game Reserve – Kenya
The next day is spent game viewing in Kenya’s finest wildlife park, the Maasai Mara National Reserve. Our full Day game drives take us in search of Africa’s Big Five and the plethora of other wildlife inhabiting this vast Kenyan game reserve.
On clear days, the Mara offers fantastic orange-tinged sunsets well-worth capturing on camera.
Wherever you go in the vast Maasai Mara you will see a frequent amount of wildlife such as Maasai giraffe, baboons, warthogs, bat eared foxes, grey jackals, spotted hyena, topis, impala, hartebeests, wildebeest.
Elephants, buffaloes, zebras and hippos are also found in great numbers. It is also common to see lions either basking after a heavy meal, or surveying the plains for their next meal.
Cheetahs and leopards are harder to spot, but reasonably common. The ultimate action here is without doubt the annual wildebeest exodus, the Great Migration, in July and August when millions of these grass eaters move north from the Serengeti in search of greener grass before turning south again in October.
Hot-air balloon trips are an entirely outstanding way of seeing the savannah plains teeming with wildlife.
These Maasai Mara balloon trips can be arranged at extra cost (USD 450 PER PERSON). The exciting bit of this day is being part of the phenomenon Great wildebeests as you sip your bottle of wine

We depart from our Kenya safari camp and take a morning game drive through the Maasai Mara National Reserve on day three.
Then we return to bustling Nairobi, arriving at about 15:00 in the afternoon. This unforgettable 3 Days Budget Masai Mara Camping Safari Kenya ends upon arrival back in Nairobi.
