Day 1 Arrival in Nairobi & Transfer to Masai Mara
Arrival in Nairobi International Airport. Once you have disembarked from your international flight you’ll be welcomed by a Wayfairer representative who will take you through immigration, customs and baggage collection and will stay with you until you meet your driver in the arrivals area.
Your driver will then take you to Nairobi’s domestic airport for your light aircraft flight to the Masai Mara - one of the most iconic wildlife destinations on the planet. On arrival at the Masai Mara you will be met by a representative at the airstrip and transferred to your luxury lodge, Saruni Mara.
We work with various lodges and camps within the Masai Mara and in the outlying conservancies and our Luxury Travel Specialists will match you to the most suitable accommodation based on your requirements and budget.
*If you would like to spend your first day or two in Nairobi or if you would like a private tour of this bustling city before your safari, inform our Luxury Travel Specialists.

Day 2-4 Safari in Masai Mara
Over the next three days you’ll enjoy early morning and late afternoon game drives in the Mara’s riverine woodlands and on the open plains.
As well as game drives, there are many other exciting activities that you can enjoy during your time in the Masai Mara - including horse riding, black rhino tracking experiences, cultural visits to Maasai villages and markets, and guided walking safaris (note: walking safaris are only allowed in the private conservancies that border the Masai Mara National Reserve).
There’s also the option to experience a magical early morning hot air balloon flight over the plains and forests of the Masai Mara followed by a champagne breakfast at your landing point.
*The range of activities mentioned are optional.

Day 5 Transfer to Nairobi
This morning you’ll have time to enjoy one final safari activity in the Masai Mara, before returning to your lodge or camp for lunch. This afternoon you’ll be driven back to the airstrip for your light aircraft flight to Nairobi.
Most international flights depart from Nairobi in the evening and to ensure that you don’t waste the final day of your holiday waiting at the airport we can arrange for you to have a car and driver for the afternoon and you can visit places of interest in Nairobi.
We recommend visiting the Giraffe Centre in Lang'ata or the Karen Blixen Museum, or if you want to buy some souvenirs you can head to Utamaduni, the Maasai market at Galleria Mall. In the evening your driver will transfer you to Nairobi International Airport in plenty time to check in for your return flight home.
