BIG FIVE MASAIMARA Safaris,This private safari takes you to Kenya’s most famous wildlife spotting destination. The name ‘Maasai Mara’ has become a synonym for Africa’s Big Five. Softly rolling grasslands, dotted with acacia trees and sheer endless plains teeming with wildlife; no matter how much you have thought about Africa, this is more you than you expected. A special treat is the famous Wildebeest and Zebra migration between July and October when millions of animals migrate to the Mara in search of greener pastures.

Our driver will comfortably pick you up at your hotel or at the Nairobi airport in the early morning at 7.00 am. We then travel along the Great Rift Valley, passing by the extinct volcano of Mount Longonot en-route to the marvelous Maasai Mara Game Reserve. You might notice a Maasai Moran (=Warrior) standing on one foot while herding hundreds of cows, goats, and sheep. His only defense against the dangerous wildlife surrounding him to all sides is a single stick or spear!
We arrive at our lodge at the perfect time for lunch, find time to relax and freshen up a bit, then head for more adventures. In the late afternoon hours, we have good chances of a close encounter with the Big Five (lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and leopard), and can easily spot herds of wildebeest (gnus), zebras, gazelles, impalas, and Maasai giraffes. In the Maasai Mara, we find the Old Africa of the movies. You will love it!

This day of safari adventure is exclusively spent in the Maasai Mara. We lookout for the park’s Big Cats, the Big Five, and the abundance of wildlife and natural wonders found in Kenya’s most famous game reserve. Remember to keep a sharp lookout; you may witness a dramatic hunt, a solitary Leopard retrieving its kill from the high branches of an acacia tree, or a herd of elephants protecting their young from predators. The Maasai Mara has one of the richest wildlife ensembles in the world, hosting over 95 species of mammals and over 400 species of birds. Game viewing is never dull here, and patience is usually rewarded with unique sightings.
Between July and October (usually best in July and August), we can witness the famous Wildebeest and Zebra migration from the Serengeti to the Maasai Mara. A massive accumulation of 1.5 million wildebeest, 200,000 zebras, and 350,000 gazelles stretch their legs over 2000km in an annual race to find enough water and green grass for their survival.

After a good night’s sleep, we wake up early for a spectacular morning game drive. The Maasai Mara has been the setting of the well-known movie ‘Out of Africa’. Its astonishing wildlife is the star of the show, providing drama and intrigue against the backdrop of spectacular scenery.
Fueled by our impressions, we take breakfast in the mid-morning hours. After breakfast, we start our journey back to Nairobi, enjoying lunch on the way. In Nairobi, our driver safely brings you back to your hotel or the airport. Your Safari ends here, but you take home a smile and a lifetime of memories – that much is certain!
