01°25'S 35°00'E — MASAI MARA

For travellers who want the Masai Mara at its very best, with none of the travel time a road safari costs you.

A direct bush flight from Nairobi puts you on the ground by late morning, with the rest of the trip built around unhurried game viewing, premium camps, and personal service — the Big Five, the Great Wildebeest Migration in season, or simply a tranquil escape into some of the richest wildlife country on Earth.

This is a route designed for discerning travellers who value comfort and exclusivity as much as the wildlife itself, and it's easily customised for honeymooners, families, or solo travellers.

Day by day

The route.

1

Nairobi — Fly to the Masai Mara

Pick-up from your Nairobi hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, with a VIP transfer to Wilson Airport for your luxury bush flight — aerial views of the Great Rift Valley along the way.

On arrival, a short game drive en route to your five-star lodge or tented camp, followed by an afternoon game drive for lion, elephant, cheetah, and more. The day closes with sundowners and a gourmet bush dinner.
