3 Days 2 Nights Maasai Mara Big Five Safari from Nairobi

Short on time but determined to see the Big Five? This three-day, two-night safari takes you from Nairobi straight into the heart of the Maasai Mara, Kenya's most celebrated wildlife reserve. You'll travel in a 4x4 Land Cruiser with a pop-up roof and a guaranteed window seat for every guest.

On day one, you'll cross the Great Rift Valley and pass through the town of Narok, reaching your camp in time for lunch and an afternoon game drive. Day two starts at dawn, when the plains are most alive, and continues with a full day of searching for lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo and black rhino, along with cheetahs, giraffes and zebras. A stop at the Mara River brings hippos and crocodiles into view, and from July to September the great wildebeest migration fills the horizon. On the final morning, enjoy one last game drive before the journey back to Nairobi.

Your safari includes lodge or camp accommodation, meals, bottled water, park entry fees, airport or hotel transfers, vehicle insurance and a knowledgeable multilingual driver-guide. You can choose budget, mid-range or luxury stays to suit your comfort level.
