NATCO Tours & Travel

Day 1 Nairobi / Maasai Mara

Depart Nairobi for the Maasai Mara Game Reserve via the view point of the Great Rift Valley, lunch en route. Arrive in time for a late afternoon/early evening game drive. Dinner and overnight at the campsite.
Day 2 Maasai Mara
This will be a day of tracking game with your guide. The Mara’s landscape is scenic savannah grassland on rolling hills which enables the reserve to attract sufficient rainfall to maintain and support a large population of herbivores, together with the predators that follow. Elephants, lions and buffaloes can be seen with relative ease though luck is a necessary factor for spotting leopard and rhino that complete the big five as the two animals are very timid and sparsely numbered. Other species seen include wildebeest, zebra, Maasai giraffe, hippos, crocodile and a variety of antelopes including impala, dik dik, hartebeest and topi. We will cater for a picnic lunch at the hippo pool. Return to the lodge or campsite for dinner and overnight.
