🐃 4‑Day Masai Mara Wildebeest Migration Safari – SafariSpark Adventures

From $1,490 USD/Person • Private, No‑Sharing Safari

Day 1: Nairobi to Masai Mara National Reserve

Your journey begins with a morning departure from Nairobi, heading west through the breathtaking Great Rift Valley. Along the escarpment, you’ll pause to admire sweeping panoramas and browse vibrant Maasai handicrafts before continuing on to the Masai Mara. Upon arrival, settle into your chosen accommodation—be it a comfortable mid‑luxury camp or an upscale lodge—and enjoy a delicious buffet lunch featuring local specialties. In the afternoon, venture into the reserve for your first game drive along the riverbanks, where herds of wildebeest and zebra graze beneath acacia trees. As dusk falls, return to camp for a three‑course dinner around the campfire and a night under the African stars.

Day 2: Full‑Day Migration Safari

Awake early to the sounds of the savannah and join your guide for a morning game drive focused on the famed river crossings. Here, migrating herds navigate crocodile‑filled waters while lions and hyenas lie in wait. A bush breakfast beside the river replenishes your energy before an optional cultural visit to a nearby Maasai village, where you’ll witness traditional song and dance and learn about local customs. After returning to camp for a brief rest, the afternoon drive takes you to the Oloololo Escarpment, offering an unrivaled vantage point over the Mara‑Serengeti ecosystem. As the sun sets, sip sundowners on a kopje before dinner back at camp.

Day 3: Deep Exploration and Optional Balloon Safari

Begin the day with a wildlife‑rich morning drive through the northern reaches of the reserve, tracking leopard sightings among riverine forests and photographing grazing herds against rolling hills. A gourmet picnic lunch in the bush gives you the chance to relax amid nature, then you’ll explore lesser‑visited areas in search of cheetahs and other predators. For an unforgettable perspective, upgrade to a hot air balloon safari (advance booking required), drifting silently over golden plains at dawn, followed by a champagne breakfast on touchdown. The day concludes with a farewell dinner in camp, complete with Maasai blessings under the Milky Way.

Day 4: Final Game Drive and Return to Nairobi

On your final morning, head out once more to capture the Mara at first light, when elephants and buffalo move quietly across the plains. Back at camp, a hearty breakfast marks the end of your stay, and you depart for Nairobi, stopping for a traditional Kenyan lunch in Narok town. Arriving in the capital by late afternoon, your driver delivers you to your hotel or airport, leaving you with vivid memories of the world’s greatest wildlife migration.
