Ultimate 3-Day Maasai Mara Affordable Family Safari

Nature Romp Safaris will pick you up from your Nairobi hotel, residence, or the airport and take you to the safari starting point. On our way to Maasai Mara, we will pass the stunning Great Rift Valley viewpoint and stop in Narok town for a lunch break and refueling. We’ll continue our journey into the Maasai plains and upon arrival, check into your camp.

Masai Mara is home to some of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa year-round. You’ll have the chance to see elephants roaming the savannah, lion prides, large buffalo herds, and various species like zebras, giraffes, gazelles, cheetahs, warthogs, and more. These exciting encounters will continue until sunset, marking the end of your first safari day. Dinner and overnight stay will be at your lodge.

After breakfast, embark on a full day of wildlife exploration in the Maasai Mara Reserve. This park offers diverse wildlife experiences, from close-up encounters with the big five (lions, elephants, rhinos, leopards, and buffalo) to the scenic beauty of the Masai plains. You’ll also visit the Mara River to see hippos and crocodiles. If you’re visiting during the migration season, you may witness the spectacular wildebeest migration.

A picnic lunch will be served during your game drive, followed by more wildlife viewing, including both the iconic big five and other fascinating species. In the afternoon, you can opt to visit a Maasai village (additional cost of $10 per person). Dinner and overnight stay will be at your lodge.

Start your final day with an early morning game drive at 6:00 am to catch the big cats in action. After the drive, return to your camp for a buffet breakfast. Following breakfast, pack your belongings and check out of your room. Your guide will meet you at the reception to begin the journey back to Nairobi.

Upon arrival in Nairobi, you may have lunch (at your own expense) and opt for a brief city tour, visiting places like the Giraffe Center or Nairobi National Park (at an additional cost). Finally, your driver/guide will take you to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport for your return flight.
