Discover the magic of Kenya's iconic Masai Mara on a memorable 2-day private safari combining an authentic Maasai cultural experience with exciting wildlife viewing. This short safari offers an opportunity to explore the spectacular savannah landscapes, learn about the traditions of the Maasai people and encounter some of Africa's most celebrated wildlife. Travel from Nairobi through the scenic Great Rift Valley to the Masai Mara, where your adventure begins with a visit to a traditional Maasai village. Experience the community's rich cultural heritage, discover traditional homesteads, admire colourful beadwork and learn about the customs and way of life of the Maasai people. On the second day, venture into the reserve for an early morning game drive across its wildlife-rich plains. Look out for lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes and, with luck, the elusive leopard and rhino. Enjoy the beauty of the African wilderness before returning to Nairobi. Travelling privately with your own safari vehicle and professional driver-guide, you have a more personal and flexible experience throughout the journey.
