After breakfast at your hotel in Nairobi (or after your arrival in Nairobi) at about 7 am, our driver will pick you up. The drive to Masai Mara National Park is 260 km long. This is the start of your 7-day safari adventure. The departure depends on the current traffic situation and the location of your hotel.

The journey takes approximately 5 hours and leads through the East African depression known as the Great Rift Valley. Upon the arrival to the park you will check in, have lunch and relax after a long journey. The journey to the accommodation includes a short tour of the park. At around 16:00, our guide will pick you up again at the reception of your accommodation and you will go on an afternoon tour of the park which will last until sunset.Masai Mara is the most visited national park in Kenya. Mainly because it is here where you can see the whole Big Five (lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards and buffaloes). In addition, of course, different species of antelope, giraffe, cheetah, jackal, hyena and many more. The local pastures allow very easy tracking and observation of animals. The Masai Mara is also known for the Great Migration of wildebeests which takes place every year between July and October between the Masai Mara and the Serengeti in Tanzania. The Masai Mara is home to more than 450 species of birds, including more than 50 species of birds of prey. After the afternoon tour of the park, you will return to the accommodation for dinner.
On this day, the program can be customized to your liking. The options are as follows: - At 5:00 in the morning you can be taken up to the clouds over the Masai Mara in a hot air balloon and end this flight with breakfast in the wild. The balloon flight lasts 2 hours. After breakfast, you head back to your accommodation. Along the way, there will be a morning tour of the park and animal watching. If you arrive before lunch, you can relax for a while and continue in the afternoon with a tour of the park. - Go early in the morning to observe the animals, then return to the B&B and stay here until lunch. After lunch you can spend time relaxing by the pool, buying souvenirs or just reading a book or watching animals.

Masai Mara National Park is located about 270km from Nairobi. Its south side flows smoothly into the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. The park is home to various species of flora, such as rare acacias. Millions of wild animals cross the Maru River every year migrating north from the plains of the Serengeti Park; wildebeests, gazelles and zebras, in particular. The migration of animals takes place from July to October. However, the park is suitable for visiting outside the migration period as well.

Kilimanjaro is an ice-covered mountain massif, formed by three, now inactive stratovolcanoes – Kibo (5,895 m), Mawenzi (5,149 m) and Shira (3,962 m). It is located in Tanzania and partly in Kenya. Uhuru, in Kibo’s crater, is the highest peak in Africa. The Maasai name of this mountain is Oldoinyo Oibor – White mountain, Swahili name is Kilima Njaro – Shining mountain. Since 1973, Mount Kilimanjaro has been part of the Kilimanjaro National Park, which was declared a UNESCO monument in 1987.
The Lemosho route on the west is considered the best choice. The success rate of reaching the top is up to 95%. The number of tourists is significantly smaller here than, for example, on the Marangu route. It also offers enough time to acclimatise, increasing your chances of success.
The route starts at a lower altitude, you will progress through the rainforest and above it will connect with the Machame route.
We will always choose accommodation together with you based on your requirements.Recommended campsites and hotels.
