At a Glance
This morning after a game drive and breakfast out in the bush, you will catch a light aircraft flight southwest to the Masai Mara. The open plains of the Masai Mara are a strong contrast to the mountainous north and as you soar over, you’ll see plains game dotting the landscape. You will land in the Mara North Conservancy, which stretches over 30,000 hectares and only you and a handful of other camps will game drive in this vast area. On arriving at Saruni Mara, you will enjoy a hearty lunch overlooking the Mara plains before heading out on your afternoon game drive. This conservancy is teeming with wildlife and you’ll find some particularly impressive big cat sightings. Follow a coalition of cheetah through the plains and wait in anticipation for them to begin a hunt. Watch lion cubs frolicking around in the grass whilst their mother keeps a watchful eye on them. Ending with a scenic sundowner and a delectable dinner back at the lodge, reflecting on your day with the other guests around the campfire. Listen to lions gently roaring in the distance under the night sky, which is brimming with stars.

The only time to avoid Kenya is during the long rainy season in April and May. November is considered the short rainy season, however, these are less predictable and are much lighter. The best time of year to visit the Maasai Mara is during the Great Wildebeest Migration which tends to pass through the Mara between mid July to late October.
