3-Day Masai Mara Luxury Flying Safari

Your adventure begins in Nairobi with a convenient pick-up from your hotel, residence or other agreed location. The Jossec Safaris team will ensure you are transferred comfortably to Wilson Airport for your scheduled domestic flight to the Masai Mara. Flying allows you to spend significantly more time enjoying the destination rather than travelling by road. As the aircraft approaches the Mara, you will begin to appreciate the magnificent landscape of rolling grasslands, acacia trees and wildlife-rich plains. Upon arrival at the Masai Mara airstrip, you will be met by your professional Jossec Safaris driver-guide and transferred to your luxury camp. After check-in and lunch, you will have some time to relax and settle into your surroundings. In the afternoon, embark on your first private game drive in a specially designed 4x4 safari Land Cruiser. Your guide will explore areas known for wildlife activity, giving you opportunities to encounter elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, antelopes and other species. As the afternoon progresses, the Mara takes on its beautiful golden light, creating excellent conditions for wildlife viewing and photography. After the game drive, return to camp for dinner and an evening of relaxation. Accommodation: Alama Camp Mara or equivalent 4-star luxury accommodation Meal Plan: Lunch and Dinner Activities: Nairobi hotel pickup, airport transfer, domestic flight to Masai Mara, lodge check-in and afternoon game drive.

Wake up to the sounds of the African wilderness and enjoy breakfast at your camp. Today is dedicated entirely to exploring the Masai Mara. After breakfast, depart with your private driver-guide for a full-day game drive. A packed lunch will be provided so that you can spend more time inside the reserve rather than returning to camp during the middle of the day. Your guide will carefully follow wildlife movements and select the best areas for viewing according to the season and current conditions. The Masai Mara is renowned for its extraordinary concentration of wildlife, and you may encounter the Big Five – lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino – together with cheetahs, hyenas, hippos, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and numerous antelope species. Depending on the season, you may also witness large herds of wildebeest and zebras moving across the plains during the Great Migration period. The private nature of the safari allows greater flexibility. You can spend more time observing a particular animal, take photographs at your preferred pace and discuss wildlife interests directly with your guide. Return to the camp in the late afternoon or early evening for dinner and overnight. Optional Experience: Hot-Air Balloon Safari For travellers looking for an exceptional luxury experience, a sunrise hot-air balloon safari can be arranged at an additional USD 450 per person. The experience normally begins before sunrise and offers a spectacular aerial perspective of the Mara followed by a bush breakfast. The balloon safari is optional and subject to availability and suitable weather conditions. Accommodation: Alama Camp Mara or equivalent 4-star luxury accommodation Meal Plan: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner Activities: Full-day private game drive, wildlife viewing, photography and optional hot-air balloon safari.

Enjoy your final breakfast surrounded by the peaceful atmosphere of the Mara before checking out. There is no scheduled morning game drive on this itinerary. This allows you to have a relaxed morning and prepare for your return flight. You will be transferred from the camp to the appropriate Masai Mara airstrip for your scheduled flight back to Nairobi. Upon arrival at Wilson Airport, your driver will meet you and provide the onward transfer to your Nairobi hotel or agreed drop-off point. This marks the end of your 3-day luxury safari. Jossec Safaris will ensure that your return transfer is handled smoothly, leaving you with unforgettable memories of the Masai Mara. Accommodation: None – safari ends in Nairobi Meal Plan: Breakfast Activities: Breakfast, check-out, transfer to airstrip, domestic flight to Nairobi and Nairobi hotel drop-off.
